What would you do for the last 20 minutes of a 500 year life?
Conceived and created by the Creative Material Group, and this version of the film was edited by New Milenium Productions. This was the original version and is not the one that ran in film festivals several years ago. This version was exhibited in connection with a live stage performance in Eugene, Oregon. I worked on the project as the editor and assisted with the multimedia equipment for the live performance which was called "Re-membering Wilde."
I wanted to share this with you all. It is a dark and compelling creative vision that centers around the archetypes of Faustian characters; two men spending their final minutes together remembering their over 500 year lives, the deals they brokered with the power that would extend their lifespans and save them from the black death that was sweeping all of Europe.
This is an incredibly beautiful bit of film making on the part of Leon Johnson who shot and directed this incredible piece of work. I humbly worked on the editing of the early stages of this work contained in the video here; exhibited for your enjoyment.
Lets us know what you think.

watched the whole thing sober this time! your right it is very beutiful. the voice overlay is very compeling and sucsinct in its delivery. furthermore the imagry is cliped and tense giving a very poetic mood. Have you read the screwtape letters by cs lewis. food for thought! very impressed.

Yes Master Yoda, I understand.
I like the way the readings work over the video and the soundscape we created.
