...can they not be edited to leave out the most personal stuff?

It would take months to do that. And part of the beauty of these tapes is my family experiencing my visit to my oopra for the first time in 35 years. I consider that part as art, as well. You know the interaction, the action, and the reaction of all the people around me, including ME.

For example, when I first start video-taping, you will hear a man who's voice I captured come to me to try to take my camera away. As he is interrogating me, I ignore him, showing him that I am NOT afraid of him. He is baffled at first then asks "where are you guys from, from Baghdad?" To which my cousin Raymond answers, (lat sawiha aasabiya) don't make her angry by asking her all these questions. Basically, the tapes tell a story. The story of my poker face. My unspoken battle in defiance of these strong men who follow me everywhere in Iraq to try to take my cameras away.

... By the way, what do you think artists share, their IMpersonal stuff?

I think women are a little more "personal" conscious, (for various vulnerability issues/reasons) than men. More private about who's hands their personal stuff falls.

...I have $200 for you...tell me where and when. And DON'T ask where I got it from!!!

WOW! thank you. I'll send you an e-mail and give you my address.

Thanks, Farid.
