Presented
A meditation on big changes, building walls, and breaking them down again.
Produced for the 2010 TCF ShortDocs Challenge: Book Odds.
Mia Lobel (Red Hook, NY, USA) is a freelance audio producer and journalist who recently packed up her life, said goodbye to all her friends, and moved from her adopted home in the Bay Area, CA back to the Hudson Valley, NY where she grew up. She is deeply indebted to her neighbors and family who have made this past year a good one.
This piece includes poetry excerpts from Mending Wall, by Robert Frost and original music by Dave Kaufman and The Books.
Book Odds invited anyone/everyone to produce a short audio work inspired by (and named after) song titles from The Books' record The Way Out, and including samples from their library of musical bits, strange phrases and sonic doodads. Read more about and listen to other Book Odds submissions.
