Two years ago, while going
through some boxes I had in storage, I came across an unfinished film I had
made in the late 70s called The Fair. It was a project I had started during my
summer break from film school, and ended up being some of the last footage I
ever shot in Super 8. It was filmed at The Fair in The Square, a community
summer event in University City, where I grew up. I transferred the film to video and uploaded
it to Youtube in 2010. As I wrote in my original blog post, I was in full
experimental film student mode when I made the movie, shooting all the footage
in extreme closeup. What comes across, at best, is a mood piece for a dreamy
summer day. In 2010 the music I chose for The Fair was a track I was working on
called, “Panomorphia”, which has since become the title cut of my new CD. I’ve
remastered and reposted the film here, with the updated CD soundtrack, which
now includes Michael Manring on bass and Celso Alberti on drums. Enjoy the
dream, --CW
