As Thomas implicitly suggests, it is often easiest to arrange your clips 
with names and directories which your "database" (i.e. [textfile], 
[coll], the iem_matrix objects etc) can easily point to, such as:

/home/donal/clips/slow/
---------------------------------clip1.mov
---------------------------------clip2.mov
---------------------------------clip3.mov
---------------------------------clip4.mov

/home/donal/clips/bw/
---------------------------------clip1.mov
---------------------------------clip2.mov
---------------------------------clip3.mov
---------------------------------clip4.mov

/home/donal/clips/red/
---------------------------------clip1.mov
---------------------------------clip2.mov
---------------------------------clip3.mov
---------------------------------clip4.mov

etc etc etc....

The [sprintf] object is very powerful for making filenames with 
different directories and other variables, have a look at it!

best,
d.
