four eyes wide open

I’ve been silent for a few days. Hadn’t intended to be, but I’ve been caught up reading this book of works by Charles Williams. That’s not what’s forced my fingers to the keyboard (though I have been writing down thoughts as I read, thoughts I intend to share in the not too distant future).

Earlier this evening I was watching the the viral video podcast from Search for Video and came across part five of another podcast. Some documentary about a pair of independent filmmakers taking their film to the Slamdance Film Festival. The film is Four Eyed Monsters. While I know almost nothing about it, I can’t recommend the podcast highly enough.

In one of those not-so-odd coincidences that happens with how fast stuff spreads on the net these days, a few minutes later I was listening to the Buzz-o-phone podcast (you call up the 800 number on that site and leave a less than 2 minute long message that is then spit back out to the world in handy dandy podcast form) and the founder of the site spent two minutes promoting the film as well. I don’t recall seeing it mentioned much of anywhere else yet so hopefully it’s about to burst out into full everybody-has-to-blog-about-it glory.
