(1888PressRelease)
February 23, 2008 - Writer/artist/director Nigel Tomm releases new shocking film on DVD - 'Hamlet,' where he extends and demolishes the boundaries of contemporary cinema. Probably this is one of the most intense, the most radical, the most innovative manifestation of the freedom of thought, of expression and of creation.
In William Shakespeare's 'Hamlet' adaptation - Nigel Tomm shows us 63 minutes and 1 second of pure white screen. Nothing less and nothing more. From the moment you touch the play button, the experience begins. Visually stunning, emotionally precise, the extraordinary awaits you. Without compromise and without compare Nigel Tomm declares: 'This is new 'Hamlet.' This is my 'Hamlet' where everything is happening inside our heads, isn't it?'
Nigel Tomm is also known as a writer. He has developed and extended a literary remix (also known as literature remix or remixed literature) genre. His famous 'remixed' books are: 'Shakespeare's Sonnets Remixed' (2006), 'Shakespeare's Hamlet Remixed' (2007) and 'Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet Remixed' (2007). Nigel Tomm continues his experiments in literature with 'The Blah Story.'
'The Blah Story' will probably go down in history as Nigel Tomm's masterpiece. And deservedly so. In 'The Blah Story' Nigel Tomm introduces literary phase-shifting, i.e., allowing nearly identical phrases at slightly differing lengths to repeat and slowly go out of phase with each other. Also algorithmic literature's and fractal literature's methods are extensively used.
Nigel Tomm's literary phase-shifting minimalism is made dazzlingly entertaining in 'The Blah Story,' which is made persuasively engaging textures from repeated phrases in the novel. All 'The Blah Story' is based mostly in steady pulse, stasis and slow transformation, and often reiteration of phrases or other textual units such as paragraphs, sentences, and words (with over usage of the word 'blah').
