"Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen, performed in sign language by Stephen Torrence. Gloss/lyrics below and captions by yours truly. Thanks to all who voted and chose this song from among hundreds of requests!

Note: I guessed the name signs for Galileo and Figaro based on the qualities "telescope" and "happy," respectively.

Is this the real life?
[LOOK-AROUND] THIS LIFE REAL?
Is this just fantasy?
DREAM? WHICH?
Caught in a landslide
HERE STUCK,
No escape from reality
WHY? HAPPEN+++ OVERWHELM
Open your eyes
EYES-OPEN
Look up to the skies and see
LOOK [UPWARD], UNDERSTAND
I'm just a poor boy (Poor boy)
ME? POOR
I need no sympathy
PITY [PUSH-AWAY]
Because I'm easy come, easy go
HAPPEN++ WHATEVER
Little high, little low
SOMETIMES HAPPY, SOMETIMES SAD
Any way the wind blows
HAPPEN WHATEVER
Doesn't really matter to me, to me
DON'T-MATTER FOR-ME

Mama just killed a man
MOTHER, MAN KILL-HIM
Put a gun against his head
[CL-L: GUN-AGAINST-MAN-HEAD]
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead
[CL-L: FIRE, MAN-DIE]
Mama, life has just begun
MOTHER, MY LIFE BEGIN
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
BUT MY LIFE RUIN
Mama, ooh
MOTHER, [CL:O]
Didn't mean to make you cry
YOU CRY, I FAIL, SORRY
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow
IF TOMORROW I NOT RETURN
Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters
YOU CONTINUE++. PRETEND NOT-MATTER

Too late, my time has come
LATE, MY DEATH APPROACH
Sends shivers down my spine
FEAR [SHIVERING]
Body's aching all the time
PAIN [ALL-OVER]
Goodbye, everybody
GOODBYE
I've got to go
NOW I MUST LEAVE
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
MUST LEAVE, TRUTH ACCEPT
Mama, oooooooh (Anyway the wind blows)
MOTHER
I don't want to die
DIE, I NOT-WANT
Sometimes wish I'd never been born at all
SOMETIMES I WISH PAST I NOT BORN

[Guitar Solo]

I see a little silhouetto of a man
I SEE-MYSELF, I BECOME WEAK
Scaramouch, Scaramouch, will you do the Fandango
WEAK-MAN, YOU DANCE FOR-US?
Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very frightening me
THUNDER, LIGHTNING, I AFRAID
(Galileo) Galileo (Galileo) Galileo, Galileo Figaro
[G-TELESCOPE+++++], [F-HAPPY]
Magnifico-o-o-o-o
AWESOME
I'm just a poor boy nobody loves me
I POOR, LOVE-ME? NONE
He's just a poor boy from a poor family
HE BOY, POOR, FROM FAMILY, POOR
Spare him his life from this monstrosity
PLEASE, HIS LIFE PRESERVE
Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?
HAPPEN++ WHATEVER, YOU ALLOW LEAVE?
Bismillah! No, we will not let you go
GOD NO, LEAVE FORBID

(Oh mama mia, mama mia) Mama Mia, let me go
[BEGGIN] ALLOW LEAVE
Beelzebub has the devil put aside for me, for me, for me!
DEVIL HE WAIT FOR ME+++

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye
YOU ABUSE-ME YOU THINK CAN?
So you think you can love me and leave me to die
YOU LOVE-ME, FINISH, DON'T-CARE YOU?
Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby
SWEETHEART, BEG, HURT-ME++ NO
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here
MUST ESCAPE, MUST RUN-AWAY

[Guitar Solo]
(Oooh yeah, Oooh yeah)
[Noodling] YES, YES

Nothing really matters

Anyone can see
ALL UNDERSTAND
Nothing really matters
HAPPEN++ NOT-MATTER
Nothing really matters to me
HAPPEN++ NOT-MATTER FOR-ME

Hudson and Troop - Frameless (ASL)


This is one of my favorite music videos! So creative and tells a story so well. Check this out:


Hudson and Troop - Frameless [OFFICIAL]

Published on Apr 5, 2014
** nominated for a triple J J AWARD in 2014, Best Music Video **
** official selection at SXSW in 2015 **

or here: http://twitter.com/hudsonandtroop

original lyrics sheet: http://on.fb.me/1kKIzOI

Honoured to have worked with some amazing people on this..
Pip Norman (Countbounce) - producer // sonic wizard
Joe Hammond - drums & percussion // mix engineer // long-term conspirator
Lauren Moore - backing vocals // motivational confidante
David Walker - midas touch mastering
Sharp FX - Special FX
and Andrew Goldsmith, Darcy Prendergast & the rest of the OYW crew, you push the boundaries in a truly mesmerizing way...
a most sincere thankyou to you all x trav

The latest offering from Melbourne's Hudson & Troop is equally dark and brooding as ecstatically uplifting. Setting out with a simplistic acoustic guitar driven intro, the beautifully produced track soon departs into more experimental territory with building layers of analog synths and electro flourishes creating sweeping dynamics verging on the cinematic. Exploring the moment in which a relationship hangs in the balance, Frameless speaks to the innate yearning in all of us, to connect.

Directed by Darcy Prendergast and Andrew Goldsmith of J Award winning / ARIA nominated OH YEAH WOW

Artists Convert Cargo Container Into a Giant Working Guitar! (Via inhabitat.com)

By Molly Cottor 10/26/14

We've seen plenty of shipping containers transformed into everything from offices, homes, and even a fancy restaurant outside of Paris. But here's an application we'd never thought we'd see -- the CargoGuitar is the product of an artistic collaboration from the Kobe Biennale in Japan, which converts a cargo container into an enormous, playable guitar. Artists Marcelo Ertorteguy, Takahiro Fukuda, and Sara Valente created this immersive sound experience that allows visitors to feel and see what it is like inside a giant guitar.


CargoGuitar consists of eight giant steel strings stretched across the interior of the container in a half-twist design. The horizontal bar at one end of the strings holds them in place and frames the cargo entrance. The vertical end is outfitted with tuning pegs that can actually change the sound scales of the instrument! For those who want to practice their Freebird solo, CargoGuitar is in fact electric, featuring two 1/4 inch input jacks plugged into corresponding amplifiers.
While exploring the inside of a massive guitar is a visual experience in itself, the artists were also interested in the kinetic vibrations and physical responses to the space. With this in mind, they made sure the guitar strings glowed in the dark, allowing visitors to experience the interactive sound container through different visual atmospheres. With the lights off, visitors can choose to close their eyes and feel the guitar’s resonating vibrations or open them to witness the glowing strings dancing in the dark while being played.
Defying what many often think of architecture, sound, and art, CargoGuitar won an award in the Art in a Container International Competition and will be on view at the Kobe Biennale in Japan for the rest of the month.
