Bassline Baseline is a video essay that investigates the invention, failure and subsequent resurrection of the mythic Roland TB-303 Bass Line music machine in the last two decades of the 20th century. The narrative seeks to invite thoughts on technological mediation within product innovation and creative expression. The dead-panned 'documentary' video attempts to explore how and why creative tools fail and how increasingly more options, parameters or intermediaries devised during a tool's research and development phase don't necessarily lead to increased expressivity or virtuosity during the tool's lifetime of actual use, unless the super-structure of its cultural context is dramtically reconsidered.

DON GLUT'S AMATEUR DINOSAUR MOVIES
"Discouraged yet again, I waited three more years before tackling another dinosaur movie, Dinosaur Destroyer (the title purloined from stories in The Adventures Of Rex the Wonder Dog comic book and Amazing Stories pulp magazine, the plot inspired by the recent Ray Harryhausen stop-motion movie 20 Million Miles to Earth, and the dinosaur largely based on the “Rhedosaurus” from Harryhausen’s Beast from 20,000 Fathoms).
