This is one of my favorite scenes of Lynch’s masterpiece, Mulholland Drive. In the larger context of this movie, this scene to me represents the dream-like nature of the film.
In this scene, the characters experience is raw and dramatic and disturbingly strange, yet no one seems to notice, including the characters who are “dreaming” it. Everything seems to take on extreme importance but the understanding of why it was so important simply slips away as soon as its done, (i.e. once you get to the next scene) much like waiting up from an intense dream with a charged up feeling that it was entirely deep and real, but you can’t put your finger on any of the specifics.
This is great…. one of my favorite Sunfold songs and a nice video to boot. Check it. Can’t wait to see them play this weekend at Artsplosure with rising stars Lonnie Walker.
Hell yea- this is what I’m talking about. Good hip hop over Mega Man music. A follow to my earlier post about Mega Ran / Random, but this time, you can hear the song without downloading anything.
The internet is a buzz about a new film coming out in December 2009 by James Cameron. Evidently, the hype surrounds the fact that this film is in 3D, but not the 3D we’re used to – it’s a new technique and peoples description of the experience is riveting.
For instance, Cameron stated that watching the movie is like…
“dreaming with your eyes wide open.”
A reporter wrote after viewing (or experiencing?) one short scene, that…
“It was like doing some kind of drug.”
The story is about an Avatar, described as a person living in a robotic body, who finds himself on an alien planet.
People are so crazy excited about it already that they’re setting up fan websites, such as Avatar Movie Zone. Fans are even producing striking fan poster art, such as the image on the left by Ludo38 @ Deviant Art.
This is one of the weirdest news segment I’ve seen. This guy evidently was masturbating at a public library computer terminal and some news reporter thought it’d be fun to go after him on this point on camera. You can imagine this doesn’t go over too but amazingly he admits everything on camera. His parents come out and try and fight off the reporters at the 5 minute mark. Eish.
Here’s an excellent video done by one of my heroes, a quantum physicist, thinker, and philosopher of the human spirit, Fred Alan Wolf.
Actually, this is his alter ego – Dr Quantum!
In this 5 minute animated clip, he breaks down one of the most famous and eerie experiments in the field of quantum physics that touches on the dual nature of matter and the effect of observation on reality, the double slit experiment.
I believe this video comes from an unused clip that was originally to appear in that weird cult favorite, “What the Bleep Do We Know?”.
