Video: Lost Cities of the Modern World

A music video of aging painted signs in Portland, Oregon. I made this about 15 years ago, around what's now called The Pearl district. About half of these signs and building are gone now. I guess the music is inspired by David Bowie's album Low.

Lost Cities of the Modern World was going to be a series of videos of "lost" artifacts from early 20th century as developers cleared way for new development. This is the only video finished, but development is still going on.



(This video is mpg encoded, but the resolution of the images isn't that great. It seems like youtube works better if the video you upload is lower resolution. I'll try again with it as a WMV.)
