My most recent political remix video created from tv commercials, blockbuster movies and news footage from Iraq and Afghanistan. The alternative title for this remix is “teaching our children”.

    yikes. What does that even mean “strength now, strength for later”?

    how about education now?responsible personal hero now?

    so what they’re going to goarmy on him? i.e.
    a)beat him into submission so he’ll smarten up now but have fodder for personal issues and violent outbreaks later in life (strength for now)
    b)teach him how to be violent (join the army) so he can fulfill his dreams of being bad more efficiently (strength for later)
    c)let him grow up as is (“go back to class”), at which point we will then need to fight him once he grows up (strength for later)

    and if this kid is supposed to be american, then the problem comes from within the country. McCain why do we have to be in iraq for 10thousand years again?

    hi john,

    your mashups are great. i am planning on doing a longer mashup for an antirecruitment performance piece, but am having trouble getting hi res original military videos. do you simply record yours from the television? do you have any other ideas about how to obtain hi res versions of these commercials?

    thanks,

    liz
