So I’ve jumped aboard the Flip Video bandwagon and I must say, there’s a great view from up here. I love this little thing! Relatively cheap (around $115), easy to use, easy to pocket, and it can be modded into an untold number of interesting new media contraptions just perfect for whatever videographic needs one may have.

I’m thinking about the Flip in terms of media access, both for the underclass and the disabled. With luck, I’d like to eventually connect one of these little guys up to a big button switcher for my friends/clients who struggle with muscle control. It may require a little soldering, as well as some creative tripod maneuvering, but it’d be great to see how the Flip can eventually be used by those individuals inhabiting a wheelchair. That’s a cinematic perspective that rarely gets shown. Maybe the Flip can correct that unfortunate cultural silence.

Alternatively, this Flip (I really need to name him) will serve as a backup camera for all my web-based video. Yan might actually get into shooting herself! Who knows?!
