So, back in the Spring of 2006 Olivia Miller and Kali Orton made a great little documentary film about Old Library Studio, called “Noise in the Library”. It’s normally about 15 minutes long… a little too long for use as a promo or grant support film. I did some editing, with Olivia’s blessing, and came up with an updated 7 and a half minute version. It’s much faster paced, with music and photos that were created after the original film was finished. There is an update at the end about some of the students featured in the film. Enjoy !

Of the features I’m most excited about, the ability to do realtime convolution is hands down the most valuable/useful.
