[Bill Davis] “It’s going to be very hard to convince me that a marker – essentially a fixed information storage point in time – will ever be able to assist the educated editor in a fashion equivalent to a system of tagged ranges that can not just “mark” – but concatenate, separate, overlap, exclude, aggregate and recall content”…
I see Vashi’s use of sting-outs and markers as being more than just fixed points in time. He’s also creating a map in space on the timeline. This allows him to “concatenate, separate, overlap, exclude, aggregate and recall content” directly with the material on the timeline with spatial memory.
It’s a different way of working then sifting thru content with tags and keyword collections, but it seems just as powerful to me.
