I've already had several sleepless nights getting excited about what I can do and I've written some automatic text already. I particularly like the emotive and unusual combination of words that come out and I am going to keep writing until I get enough really nice snippets to work with.
Some ones that I've written so far are : A twitter of white noise, incandescent snow globe and what the furbie?
I'm also finding myself writing a lot of song lyrics. Strangely it seems the ones that come from songs that possible had some automatic writing themselves such as:
The dog days are over by Florence and the Machines
Full grown man and A Picture of our torn up praise by Phospherescent
I also got little snippets of nursery Rhyme in there such as Here comes a candle to light you to bed, here comes a chopper to chop off your head from Oranges and Lemons.
As for treatment of animation, timing and rhythm I'm overwhelmed by all the possibilities.
Some thoughts are:
- Taking found objects with writing on them that have similar letters to words I am using and finding interesting ways to turn them into the words I want
- collecting different media with words on such as magazines and newspapers and building them up into a ransom note style of animation
- I had a look at this on Youtube and like the artists style of erasing what he'd written as I think it has an interesting meaning when what you are doing is automatic writing
- Writing on arms and hands, filming and dropping into an animation sequence
- sparkler and neon sign writing.
- Normal scrabble and vertical scrabble
