<1183299660.7845.35.camel@m50-laptop><br>Content-Type: text/plain<br><br> The Chain Tape Collective announces the downloadable pre-release of <br>Caligari: An Exquisite Corpse.<br><br> The project includes some stunning music from 11 different<br>collective members, comprising two complete and brand new soundtracks<br>for the German Expressionist classic 'The Cabinet Of Dr. Caligari'. <br><br> The film was scored using an Exquisite Corpse process. Each of<br>the 11 contributors scored an act of the film in isolation from all of<br>the others, with only the visual continuity of the film serving as a<br>unifying factor.<br><br> Two of the 11 contributors used Ardour .99.3 and a very early xJadeo<br>running on FC4-CCRMA to score/sync their contributions. Ardour was also<br>used to construct rough
audio masters for both the NTSC and PAL versions<br>of the project.<br><br> Musical styles range from early 20th-century chamber music to<br>electronica to out-jazz to lo-fi to noise.<br><br> Visually, the film has been restored to the six act structure of<br>the original scenario, tinted, and new inter-titles after the style of<br>the German originals have been added.<br><br> Restoration was completed using open source NLE Cinelerra-cvs, along<br>with The Gimp. Time code implementations in Ardour/xJadeo and Cinelerra<br>play nicely together, and appear to be mutually frame-accurate, at least<br>at 24 and 25 fps.<br><br> The DVD is in the final stages of mastering, and will be<br>available in limited quantities from project participants only, for<br>those who like some artifact with their
art.<br><br> Anticipated DVD release date is September 1.<br><br> A downloadable DVD-quality version is available now from<br>archive.org. This version contains both soundtracks in a single file,<br>and requires either QuickTime Pro >= 7.1.x or vlc > .8.x.<br><br>Here's the link:<br><br><a target="_blank" href="http://www.archive.org/details/Caligari_AnExquisiteCorpse">http://www.archive.org/details/Caligari_AnExquisiteCorpse</a><br><br> Windows media player users can download compatible versions <br>here:<br><br><a target="_blank" href="http://www.archive.org/download/Caligari_AnExquisiteCorpse_Windows">http://www.archive.org/download/Caligari_AnExquisiteCorpse_Windows</a><br><br> Choose the Cinepak option from the download section for best<br>Windows Media Player
