A short Eco-collage using cuts from the documentaries Age of Stupid and Blind Spot with early 70âs music and clips from Sean Kennedyâs series Tales From the Afternow. Also, have been requested to show segment times so weâll give it a try but I can see that this may become too unwieldy for some programs.
