about InfiniteJest
Infinite Jest:
I have been thinking about a film score project for some years now:
in the novel 'Infinite Jest' by David Foster Wallace
there is a lengthy endnote containing a filmography for the
protagonist's experimental filmmaker father, James O. Incandenza.
I've always thought that making these fictional films into real ones
would make for a great project but after DFW's death
I thought that it might make a thoughtful .microsound project
to create soundtracks for these films as a way to honor his life and
work.
So here is my proposal: using the filmography I've uploaded to the
server select a film and create a soundtrack for it.
The world is going to be a
much
less interesting place without DFW and the least we can do is try to
counter that.
I will miss his presence in the world.
