:32:03
Sometimes Bob had the bulb
:32:05
and each time he got hit
that's when we snapped it.

:32:16
Overall I think
we did 15 different implements--

:32:19
36 shots each.
:32:25
I find that I don't have
that power over him anymore.

:32:28
He is now sort of coming to his own
as a visual artist.

:32:31
My influence over him in that way
:32:35
is not nearly as much as it was
in the early beginning stages of it.

:32:38
Don't you collaborate
in his performances?

:32:43
We totally collaborate.
It's a real interesting process.

:32:50
- All right Bob, enough?
- Keep going.

:32:53
Don't make it phony, just do it.
:32:57
Up higher. Tighter.
:32:59
Head up a little bit.
:33:02
Don't do it anymore.
Oh, stop.

:33:12
Okay, a smooth zoom out.
:33:15
- Not yet?
- Not yet.

:33:17
Sheree, I want a lot of time in here.
:33:19
- Not yet?
- Not yet.

:33:22
and a little up... and bind.
:33:24
- How's it look?
- Looks good.

:33:25
I'll punch you in the stomach now.
:33:30
Wait, stop, stop.
You can't just keep doing that.

:33:33
Who the hell do you think you are?
:33:36
- Amazing.
- Shut that off.

:33:39
- What off?
- You got plenty for your thing.

:33:41
That's it. I said stop, stop.
You just hit the nipple.

:33:45
You hit it four times in a row
when you say you're not gonna do it.

:33:51
Ready for a cupcake?
:33:56
In the video scaffold
we shot hours of footage

:33:59
of each part of Bob's body,
and assembled the footage
