Dirge's other hobby : Videos
It appears a few months before her death Dirge had found a new hobby editing video clips and setting them to music. Here is one she made under the name of echochamber. She put these comments with it.
Tubular Blues (Airing Dirty Plates In Public)
By dint of some needlessly florid video layering techniques, a few YouTube votaries and a piece of 1930s blues I have conspired to produce something acutely unwatchable. I am filled with reproach, but at least I now know how to make double-action shots. That is not a euphemism. I also became embroiled in something of a circle-jerk with Archimedes. Circles literally encircled me.
Again, all footage used is done so with utmost affection. I have become so addicted to YouTube that I feel it is invading my living space, and ipso facto; kitchen space. My hands make another cameo and I also added on an ill-conceived self-portrait, safe in the knowledge only the very audacious will make it that far.
It was a fun layering exercise.
Music: Robert Johnson 'Come On In My Kitchen'.

Yes, she was very clever, as you can probably tell from the way she wrote. Apparently that kind of editing takes many hours of work, I wouldn't have a clue how to do it myself but looks like fun.
