So I got an ocarina. Here's my first song (wrong notes included): Greensleeves. Whee.

A long but DETAILED 8-part explanation of my ASL interpretation of the song "A Place to Call Home".

I cover in depth the various interpretive decisions, ASL vs SEE grammar (including topic/comment & other syntax), intentional poetic ambiguity, etc.

Originally by Dan McCandless with the UC Berkeley a capella group Noteworthy.

The sound I am using is from Dan's spinoff group, Northside Special. See it at http://www.myspace.com/98048250

Aspect ratio got messed up during the editing; that was way more a PITA than it ought to have been for something relatively simple (overdubbing part of the captured movie from an ogg). I just didn't want to mess with it any more, so oh well I look a little stretched.

Finally managed to both make a (mostly) satisfactory 'terp, and a (mostly) smooth take. Only took lots of tries for each... blah.

Given that this is fast French hip-hop, I had to mostly abandon the idea of doing completely fidelitous translation; both in terms of idioms that wouldn't translate, and my not being able to sign QUITE that fast (nor capture it at high enough speed to be comprehensible even if I could)... so this is definitely an 'interpretation' and not a 'translation'. Hopefully close enough is good enough. ;)

I'm pretty sure that someone could do this better than this; if you can, do it and post it as a response on YouTube.
