I've been making music videos since 1984, when I first discovered them at a Texas Star Trek convention. Since then, I've been obsessed by the idea of telling stories by re-interpreting the lyrics of songs in the context of TV shows and movies. They've been presented at various conventions, and were described in a talk I gave at the MIT Media Lab. I hope you enjoy watching them as much as I enjoy making them.
Hi cuz. Why am I just seeing this for the first time? Bravo Zulu (Well Done). I started off in Engineering before moving on to Operations and then Intelligence. Once a Snipe, always a snipe. Hope all y'all are well.
WONDERFUL to hear from you, cuz! I made these back around 1985 when I was emphasizing the minor characters who were appearing at Creation Cons. Saw Scotty in NYC. Absolutely joyful. All well here except one of the poor doggies lost most of his teeth, but he's doing better now. And I had an interview for a Christmas documentary that would discuss Henry Livingston and Clement Moore for Night Before Christmas. Still can't stop watching Chinese and Korean dramas so still not getting anything practical done but happy. If you go to my home page on RU-vid, www.youtube.com/@MaryVanDeusenFanVids I'm changing the welcome video daily so you might see more surprises, though I've been doing this quite a while already with many of my favorites.

Trump is and Puccini was a nationalist. Puccini was an Italian nationalist who understood tragedy and loss. Puccini's characters were sometimes victims of lawfare as in Tusca. Trump is a victim of lawfare now. RIP Mistro Puccini. Thank you President Trump.
I was 9 years old in 2001. I remember lots from 2001 including the 9/11 attacks and the anthrax letters in the mail. But I don't remember watching the beginning of the US invasion of Afghanistan too much. I'm glad you recorded it on vhs back then
You're most welcome. One of the favorite shows of my youth was You Were There, which attempted to recreate moments in history. That probably influenced my taping so much. You have so very much history in front of you to remember and pass on to future generations.
When I remember painting people in college, I remember blurring faces and hands and feet because they're so tough to get right. It's awe inspiring to see someone who can catch different faces and expressions and make it all feel natural.
My only sibling was older and left home when I was 9. This song hits me the same way it does you. Make sure you leave interviews, when possible, and stories to all the side members of your family of those you love. Webpage, videos, whatever makes sure that the lives of the people that you love become memories to as many as possible so that you won't be the only one remembering them. That's why I started my personal website - to make sure my father was remembered when I saw his letter saying that he'd burned his manuscripts and that the future could do without him. It was on me to make sure that the future COULDN'T do without him. Reaching out to you with a virtual hug. Mary
That was an Americanism meaning the country from which our ancestors emigrated. There is a large population in the US that sees the Netherlands as their original home and have a deep love for your country. It was a virtual hug to you.
I had a compilation of your superb DS vids on 25 years ago. They're still on an old VHS tape. This was one of them. It brought back so many happy memories. Thanks for sharing.
I really went bonkers for DS. I can still put myself back in my friend Vicky's car as we drove to a DS con in Toronto and listened to a Paul Gross tape. Good people. A great show. Fandom has always been The Best!
I liked Trumps foreign policy But i still expect a president shake his opponents hands and gratulate when lose. Being a president is bigger than yourself...But I hope he win but I hope he this time shake hand with his opponents.
Nature can be wonderful if we treated fair. That man new chemistry of art , to put those colors together and the realism is amazing to me that is a form of art you don’t see very often , thank you for your video and your efforts.In that time..
You're very kind and I'm grateful for your words. I loved putting it together. Back when I studied art history, I would have had to hold my fingers in so many different books at once. Suddenly I can experience the entire world of his art at once. What I wouldn't have given back then to have been able to have this.
It was an absolute joy to film John. One of the things I was trying to do was "Let John Be John." That's why I violated everything I'd been taught in videomaking and used a full minute of John in the documentary. Back when I was chair of programming languages, John used to assume that I was one of those who understood what he was saying and would back me up against the wall in the research hallway and just talk. Never could follow his thoughts. My husband was asked to be one of the people following John and writing down what he said. Husband wanted to concentrate on his own research and refused. Everyone who followed John became famous. Husband just became loved.
Italians know. Trump is not screwing around. He plays the song of Italian mafia. You only play that song, if you are about to screw $#!t up. It's a sign. A sign of F U to your enemies
Much love and respect for our best friend and american brothers, your country give a good life at more more italians when in Italy the life is more poor, love you🇮🇹🇺🇲
