The teacher is out; a film strip will be shown

For some of you, this will be a blast from the past. For others it will be new. For everyone, it will be tiny and dark and grainy. Yes, it's my Gates film, back from the dead. When we last left my movie of The Gates, I was unable to do anything with it due to copyright issues on the music (oh, those evil, evil record companies!). Well, this is for no commercial purpose and let me just add, please buy this fine record. If you like this song, the CD will blow your mind. Buy it today!

It's been over a year, but you will probably remember The Gates, the Christo & Jean-Claude project in Central Park last February. Some people hated it, some people loved it, but I felt differently. See I first hated it and then loved it. In the daytime it looked like a construction site or like ugly orange curtains. Then I went at night with my iPod and changed my mind.

Technical issues:

1. I'm not sure how to embed this into my page (that will be a project for some other day) so the link is below.

2. I think you will need to have Apple Quicktime already installed on your computer to hear the music, or at least that's how it worked last year when I posted this.

3. If you remember this film larger and the music sounding better, congratulations on your fine memory and sensory skills! I made it smaller because I decided I needed the $7 a month that the extra space cost more than I needed artistic integrity.
