  • Why Do You Persist?

    In this audio short, I took Agent Smith's final speech from the Matrix Revolutions and revamped it. In this short, Neo is trying to land a space craft before it crashes to earth, all the while Smith berates and taunts him on the radio transmitter. I quite liked the speech and thought that the revamp could be interesting, I hope you guys like it
