La Blogotheque: Thurston Moore

Like this video because it's a little different from their other videos.  Starts with some talking and setting the stage and the music doesn't even begin until 2:15 which is cool.  Moore's voice is really soft, but you can hear everything that you need to.  I also like the fact that the musicians are in different rooms so we get a real feel to his and Kim Gordon's apartment in the Lower East Side of Manhattan.  Like that we sit with them, literally in this space and can't really see Moore's face except for some brief moments. The violin is lovely too as the plainness of the matching tones makes their collaboration stands out.  Great camera work as we can see the reflections in the mirror nicely and all their photos on the walls.  Love walking around the neighborhood and seeing people unaware of the camera too.  It seems like every block you travel in NYC today has a little Canon 5D camera crew set up on it.
