Video Links of Interest

This video got me started down the collaboration rabbit hole.

This video is from the 2015 French collab. Mostly in French, but it gives you a good idea of how these work. I show up in this a lot, including close ups.

This video is from the 2017 French collab in Aiguines, France. I was very honored when the director asked me to narrate the documentary video...my words, my voice.
