[NetBehaviour] Marc Garrett's 1st Valentines Day experience...

[Michael Szpakowski]

Marc:

It's great!
I love the distancing of the narrative voice (you but not you) and the careful, quite literary, pacing and structure of the text.
The music (I love that four note - with the fourth note repeated -motif  which dominates the middle section, humourous but also urgent) drives it on beautifully.
It manages to be both  affecting, touching, but also formally engaging so that our immediate emotional response (agonised self-identification in my case) doesn't exhaust our responses...

A thought: you should post the stems as a remix competition on FF and send it to this site:

It'd be interesting to see what emerged!

cheers
michael
