Hi Alan,

Thanks for this .mov

I was wondering if the movie is deliberately not looped? Is this part of

a (relational) reference to Christian Metz, and part of the
jolt out of the sequence bringing us back into reality, our owon 
imperfections/perfections (forgive the binary) that it, "lies in its 
ability to both be an imperfect reflection of reality and as a method to

delve into the unconscious dream state."

Excellent piece of writing by the way...
