Interlude I—Dream Sequence in Subi Circumnavigation : Sufjan Steven's "BQE"

Anyone out there who likes seeing work shot with a 16mm Bolex may like this film project. Sufjan Stevens is the composer/director with cinematography by Reuben Kleiner. I think the thing I like most about this excerpt is the footage of hoola hooping intercut with the BQE or Brooklyn/Queens Expressway or what we call the"freeway" on the West Coast. Don't know if there will be a free download, but I certainly like it so far. Since lately I am really liking slow motion footage or what we used to call "overcranking" (the ability to crank the camera at a higher speed than 24 FPS), it seems like I will get to see some of that here. To read more about the project you can go to: http://asthmatickitty.com/the-bqe

At this point, since I have only seen the trailer and this excerpt, I can only say that I am emphatically interested and awaiting digital release.
