thanks Oren, your support is felt and appreciated
humbled
my own reflections on the piece are of the gloomy kind (which is not necessarily a bad thing in my book)
- poetry needs repetition [and hopefully electronic music provides the invitation to do so] but a mind struggling to manufacture meaning out of words that require an effort to assemble into one cohesive entity may be too distracted to pay attention to the musical experience
- video gadgeting with effects and transitions might steal the rest of the listener's attention
one does not understand the complexity of matching audi/video/lyrical outputs until one attempts to convey the singularity of a message with all three mediums

Your presentation works for me. 

Poetry, presented in this manner, will have a wider audience - and both the music and the video stand on their own. It's a complete package; nicely done!
