[flummery]

Our Vividcon Premieres vid is up now:

Vid title: Handlebars
Song artist: Flobots
Fandom: Doctor Who (2005)
Vidders: Seah and Margie (Flummery)
Vidder website: http://flummery.org
Summary: I'm the Doctor. Look me up.

Notes: Thanks to merryish for the all the help, and especially all the baking, without which this vid probably never would have been finished in time. (she made us say that -- but it's true anyway.)

Right-click to download: http://flummery.org/handlebars/handlebars_dw_flummery.avi

There's a streaming version up on our imeem (http://flummery.imeem.com), but it's a little stuttery in spots and we're not sure why. Hopefully we'll get it figured out and fixed soon.

Imeem went boom, so we put a streaming version up on our site, which you can watch there or here:

ETA April 17, 2012: Our streaming vids are temporarily offline while we look into a technical issue. Sorry! The download still works, and we'll get the streaming version back up as soon as we can.

I just found link this via killabeez and... wow.

I actually discovered this song around the time you posted this vid or maybe a little earlier (actually, me and my friends made a filk of it appropriate to our theater piece of the moment, but that's another story) so it was already deeply ingrained in me. The very idea of making it a Dr. Who vid is fundamentally perfect: putting the moral code/free will of humans alongside the vastly powerful Doctor and the choices he makes is always the most interestingly problematic things raised by the show and by the very existence of his character. Beyond that, the execution of the vid is stunning; you really made that connections relevant and personal, and the voice of the Doctor comes through strongly in the voice of this song.
