“An awareness of hip hop is arguably the single most recognizable aspect of alt-rock in the nineties. Break beats were everywhere - just listen to Dave Grohl’s drumming in the chorus of Teen Spirit” Greg Milner via RJ Wheatons 33 1/3 book on Portishead’s Dummy.

"F for Fake" original trailer by Orson Welles - 1976 - YouTube:

Oh man so good. I expected it to be a good film considering it’s status and director but I did not expect it to feel so modern. With the quick cuts and use of nearly subliminal cues that happen so quickly you don’t fully get a chance to acknowledge the layers of subtleties, it felt like it could have been made in this decade. Loved the way he juxtaposed the double exposures, overlapping characters, and the perfect comedic timing. So ahead of its time they didn’t have a way to describe the kind of film it is.

Can’t stop listening to this song.

“The process of transformation consists mostly of decay and then of this crisis when emergence from what came before must be total and abrupt. […] Instar implies both something celestial and ingrown, something heavenly and disastrous, and perhaps change is commonly like that, a buried star, oscillating between near and far.”

Ruth White’s Flowers of Evil is a darkly haunting rendering of a few Baudelaire poems, from his book of the same name, over her experimental analog electronic music. This is from 1969, which makes it even creepier. Enjoy your dreams after this!

“

A constant flow of thoughts expressed by other people can stop and deaden your own thought and your own initiative…. That is why constant learning softens your brain…. Stopping the creation of your own thoughts to give room for the thoughts from other books reminds me of Shakespeare’s remark about his contemporaries who sold their land in order to see other countries.

(Arthur Schopenhauer, January 9)
