"I Dream of Wires" is an upcoming, independent documentary film about the phenomenal resurgence of the modular synthesizer — exploring the passions, obsessions and dreams of people who have dedicated part of their lives to this esoteric electronic music machine.
"I Dream of Wires (Hardcore Edition)" (IDOW-HE) will be released on Blu-Ray / 2-DVD, and shipped to all IndieGoGo and pre-order customers, June 2013. IDOW-HE is for the hardcore modular synthesizer and electronic music fanatics, and will run approximately 4 hours long(!). It will also contain several new bonus Extended Interview segments. If you want more than a sentence or two out of many of your favourite modular synthesizer manufacturers, musicians, enthusiasts and community members, this is going to be the version for you! IDOW-HE opens with an hour-long historical primer, that has been removed entirely from the theatrical version. This section focuses primarily on the developing years of R.A. Moog Co. and Buchla & Associates Inc., and also covers their subsequent impact, influence, and the eventual decline of the modular synthesizer. Robert completed this segment of the film several weeks ago, and I can tell you that I watched it and was totally glued to the screen; an hour flew by in what seemed like 15 minutes. Our non-synth-nerd test viewers, on the other hand, were less compelled. This stuff isn't mass market material, apparently! Throughout the remainder of IDOW-HE, the film follows the same narrative arc as the theatrical cut, focusing on what is happening now — the resurgence of the modular synthesizer, and stories of the people behind this movement. But in IDOW-HE, instead of cutting out all of those techy, insider details that are sure to alienate the casual documentary film goer, we leave them in, and explore them to their fullest.
"I Dream of Wires (Hardcore Edition)" will be a limited edition item (1000 Blu-Ray / 1000 2xDVD sets), available exclusively through us, via direct purchase. Through previous IndieGoGo pre-orders, contest winners and promos / gifts, we already have approximately 700 copies sold and accounted for. The remaining copies will be available to pre-order from our website starting Monday Februarry 11, through til May 31, 2013. This is a strictly limited edition item, and is likely to sell out quickly, so don't sleep — pre-order now!
