In space, no one can hear you preen

I just posted a new Battlestar Galactica vid, this one for a character I don't even like because of all the terrible suffering he's responsible for: Gaius Baltar. It's kind of freeing in a way to vid someone you despise, because to tell a story, you have to learn to love the characters you're telling about; you see different things in them than just fannish objects of affection. And it forced me to see all these things about Baltar I'd never really seen before.

Digging in the Dirt
Artist: Peter Gabriel
File: Divx avi, 37MB (I recommend VLC media player, which you can find a link for at the site)
Dr. Gaius Baltar, scientist, narcissist, wackjob: It really is all about him.

Thanks for feochadn for the halftime beta; I hope the rest of it lives up to your standards.

Thank you so much! I think your icon says a lot about what was presented in the vid -- what he thinks of himself, what others think of him, and how the divergence would pretty much make anyone nuts. It was a really interesting concept to look at it, to work on.
