This feels weird. Call the cops.

A play-list of the whole Slick Rick album. The Art of Story Telling. Hit play and get into it. Or don’t, go on being a Nimrod. Don’t listen, your mother is sick of being ashamed of herself, the age, the wrinkles, a slave to vanity. So you, go on, don’t listen, Be a pansy, give her something else to be ashamed of. Take her mind off the impending doom. A gypsy, A harpie, A fool.  Make the right decision.

By:  Federico Garcia Lorca.

UNTITLED.

I don’t want to hear again that the dead
do not lose their blood,
That the rotting mouth still asks for water;
I don’t want to know of the ordeal by grass
Not of the moon with a serpent’s mouth
At work before daybreak.

I want to sleep for a while,
For a while, a minute, a century,
But all shall know that I have not died,
That there is a stable of gold on my lips,
That I am the little friend of the West wind,
That I am the giant shadow of my tears…….

An interview with P.T. Anderson where he eats pizza and discusses porn among many other things.

Here is a documentary on Chris Cunningham.  Sort of anyway.  Chris Cunningham directs music videos, among other things.  Strange and amazing.  I think his best stuff is all of his work with Aphex Twin.  Search for him in youtube if you haven’t seen his work before.

The audio on all of these is off. And its annoying. The video clips end up basically being full length videos with snippets oh him talking between.  But if you like Chris Cunningham its kind of neat. If not, fuck it.  I’ve posted his newest work (which is fairly sparse) and some interview links below this documentary.

I’ve been searching everywhere trying to find any information about upcoming projects.  But there really seems to be nothing.  Apparently he is going to release a book of concept sketches for his work, which would be cool, but the interview where he talked about that was from like three years ago.   Another project abandoned perhaps.  I wish he would just make a movie with a series of bizarre images and instances.  No story, nothing.  No discernible concept.  An hour and a half of off the wall energy.  All to Slick Rick, Aphex Twin and Patsy Cline music.  Actually Slick Rick and Aphex will make an album together for the project, maybe make some percussion on Patsy’s grave stone with a voodoo shin bone.  And the sound basis will be the opening song in the Window Licker video when the boys are driving in the sun.

I found these interviews below, which, though older, are still good.  He’s made one video, a commercial and did a photo shoot with Grace Jones that I could find (All below.)  If anyone else knows of anything let me know.

interview about rubber johnny.

another good interview

vice interview part 1

vice interview part 2

This commercial looks and sounds pretty good.

Get that fucking band out of my site and give me more Squid.  Actually I like that bass.  The squid should Fawk it.

Federico Garcia Lorca.

‘Romance of the Spanish Civil Guard.’

The horses are black,
Black are the horseshoes.
On their capes glint
Stains of ink and of wax.
Their skulls are of lead,
Therefore they have no tears.
With souls of varnished leather
They come down the road,
Hunchbacked, nocturnal.
Where they go they command
Silence of dark rubber
And fear of fine sand.
They pass if they wish to pass
And they hide in their heads
A vague astronomy
Of shapeless pistols.
