> Queue
> A documentation of creative queue behaviour.
> A queue is a long line of people, while a video is a long sequence of
> frames. They both move in one direction, slowly, pausing, whimsically.
> Because it's hard to be constrained in one dimension, the line and the
> sequence. Human jittering needs an outlet, whether mental or physical.
> The hardest thing is to not do anything.
> As a self-referencial thing the queue was recorded outside the art
> center Fondation Cartier pour l'Art Contemporain, Paris.

I like these. "Crossover" is somewhat reminiscent of early Chris Burden
while "Queue" has an iconic quality with even more potential.
