So it’s not that easy to get good visuals at night with an inexpensive camera. Who could have known?
Either way, I wanted to get this online as soon as I could, because injunction or no, who knows how much longer things will last. No soundtrack, minimal editing, just throwing a few shots together and posting. Whatever it lacks in polish will be outweighed, I hope, by whatever immediacy and authenticity it conveys.
Later on today I’ll try to clean up what I got from the prayer vigil. The video isn’t great but audio’s worth posting, even though it goes on at some length, if only because Jerry Agar, writing in the Sun (surprise!), apparently thinks the Occupiers are an “evil presence.”
