Joe Keenan's MOMENT

 

Joe Keenan's MOMENT in Internet Explorer

I put together a twenty minute video talking about a fantastic piece of digital poetry by Joe Keenan from the late nineties called MOMENT. Check it out: http://vispo.com/keenan/4. MOMENT, written in JavaScript for browsers, is a work of visual interactive code poetry. It's one of the great unacknowledged works for the net.

I used Camtasia 8 to create this video. I've used the voice-over capabilities of Camtasia before to create videos that talk about what's on the screen, but this is the first time I've been able to use the webcam with it. Still a few bugs, though, it seems: at times the video is quite asynchronous between voice and video.

Still, you get the idea. I'm a big fan of Joe Keenan's MOMENT and am glad I finally did a video on it.
