10 minutes: Rear Cubicle, A video tale written and produced by Jos Claerbout; directed and edited by Yun. They shot it the weekend before Jos died. Yun edited it afterwards. Jos wrote and produced this video to test the boundaries of the internet as a new video distribution medium (rather than say, the usual theatre or film festival route). He felt that the internet could be a much more democratic means of distributing one's work. More at http://sepwww.stanford.edu/data/media/public/sep/jon/family/jos/rearcubicle.html
