This is a little rant from Transmetropolitan, set to music and made to look all pretty with motion and the like. This little speech always intrigued me and inspired not one, but two separate papers during my undergrad career. This looks pretty cool, but it sounds like the narrator has a slight lisp that I found a little distracting. Also, he isn’t quite vitrilolic enough for my tastes. Oh well.

I tried to get Warren to do it himself, but he really wasn’t keen on the idea. As regards the guy’s voice, I wanted something in between academic assessment and vitriol, shifting towards the latter as it went on, as that’s how the passage felt to me.
I got a little more scholarly detachment than real anger, but all in all I think it is truly fantastic. Nice work.
Thanks. I want to do another thing in a similar vein, but I’m not sure what do do it on, as it needs to be something that I can really work with, and do something interesting with.
