Favoriting Explorers Room with Flash Strap: Playlist from June 14, 2018 Favoriting

Flash Strap's avatar View Flash Strap's profile Favoriting

This is where all of culture and all of time are collapsed into one seductive portal and viewed through the panoramic lens of the exotic. Come and embark on an armchair-travel virtual-voyage to the heart of timeless darkness and beyond; embrace the numinous monolith of the exotic immensity. Let us find that place where hybridization meets its destiny as pure fantasy. Let us become observers observing those others who are ourselves. You wear your mask and I'll wear mine.

more on New Gods: i requested this from the library, and when it came it turned out to be a b + w reprint. i was bummed at first because the color is such a big part of my memory of these books, but as i read on the pencils seem somehow even more amazing in b + w.

Avatar 7:18pm
Flash Strap:

most of these films are hardly films, not really worth seeing (even considering their intended utility) but some of them are surprisingly artful, well-shot. I know this one was filmed in Kenya, which is probably interesting and somewhat hair-raising
Avatar 7:19pm

the original is decent filmmaking imo. makes a pretty wild read from a postcolonial perspective, actually

the primitive london 5 track reminds me of the scene in "under the skin" where, she's leading her prey (as she's disrobing) to get liquified, which also reminds me of Noh theater music

Just watched "Onibaba", a b&w Japanese film from 1964.
Extremely beautiful and terrifying with a Noh-like score.

i remember watching a featurette where the director was talking about the film analytically, he was really wonderful but it was so funny; everything was sex.
