Graham Response 6

I liked the boomerang video, it was interesting to see how she reacted since everyone has experienced that on cell phones before. Holt describes a prison, from which there is no escape, a present time which is completely severed from a sense of its own past. I feel the prison analogy is a little extreme, but it's definitely weird to hear your voice play back to you. I was a bit annoyed during the video because I found myself wanting her to speak at a normal speed instead of so painfully slow. What I got from it though was she was doing it because she felt the weight of the "collapsed presence". I agree with Erica when she said it would be really interesting to see that conducted with technology today, instead of in 1976.
