“You’re Not My Father,” a video art project by Paul Slocum. It’s a scene from Full House, repeated and recycled through reenactments. Particularly interesting are the instructions he gave to reenactors (PDF), who were working remotely. You can judge for yourself how well all the men matched Dave Coulier’s fist clenches. (More here.)
Dallasites may know Paul as one of the leading lights of the electronic-art scene, or more likely as the guy behind Tree Wave, an electronic band that uses obsolete ’80s tech — Commodore 64s, Ataris, a dot-matrix printer — as its instruments. Or you may know him as the guy behind that vocodor-y “Hello, hello, hello” in Metro PCS commercials.
I only wish an Olson twin could have been scared up to take part.
Slocum posted a looping version of the original Full House scene on Youtube:
