said the joker to the thief
28 Mar 2007 10:59 pmI'm not normally one for interviews or commentaries or podcasts or shooting diaries or anything of that nature (for someone who enjoys kicking meta around and cheerfully tearing canons into shreds of symbolism, I am perversely unwilling to have someone else break the fourth wall for me).
That said, Bear McCreary's blog about putting together the BSG soundtrack is always interesting, and this entry about the use of that song in the S3 finale is really fascinating, especially the stuff about how they basically rebuilt the song from scratch using Indian-themed instruments, and the fact that yeah, he originally thought that RDM was going crazy :)
Anyway. Worth a read.
I'm also going to take this moment to declare a semi-permeable state of hiatus, due to a heavy load of academic, work-related and personal stuff at the moment. You know the drill: I'm still reachable by email, but I won't be updating LJ and most likely won't do more than briefly scan my flist.
