    _EDIT_30 HD Colour Video, 1 Hour 24 mins. Part of an ongoing series. Over the past few years, whilst owning a phone with the ability to shoot video, I have been accumulating recordings and editing the results into unambiguously titled EDITs. Many of the videos captured on my phone document my experiments in procrastination in both the edit suite and the studio, others are from holidays and trips, some are a record of the everyday banalities of life with more recent content comprised predominantly of my dog doing silly/disobedient things. The content with which the EDIT’s are created are however secondary to their production as the editing of the video itself is its own subject. Whilst editing the content I screen-record the editing programs full-screen playback output on an external monitor along with internal computer and ambient room sound via an external microphone, this screen-recording then forms the final video. Thus it is the conceit - the video is the process of the content processed - that forms the primary concept of the videos. To date - whilst procrastinating from doing other work in the studio - I have created 31 EDITs each with a utilitarian sequential title that conforms to editing naming convention in order to keep copies and rushes ordered whilst editing e.g. _EDIT_024. ﷯
