Let's discuss it in more depth.If you look at a post on its own,it fails to simulate what the visual image does for the written word(or for the recorded sound for that matter).Something i have learned from 'some' sound installations or from laptop performances is that when words,music and visuals collide in a happy place, everything is possible and everything becomes a possibility.You've got to try and try till you get it right.If you look at a moving image on a wall while the right music is played or it is being played by someone,try and move the eyes towards the remote corners of the image.They become pulsating cells that respond to the music in a seemingly incoherent way.

Another good example is watching tv with the sound turned down while listening to a particular record.Many a time i have watched the news while i had on the stereo,say,Steamboat Switzerland or whatever.When it works it gels into a a perfect patnership because the two re-organize their respective mediums into what reminded me a lot of an arm-wrestling match.

That is great Rob.
