wanting, needing and liking






This shirt reminded me of when Audrey and I were coming up with T-shirt ideas and we hatched "Show Me Your Werner", our homage to Herzog. I just might break out my never used silkscreening skillz for that one...so pre-order yours now!



Speaking of Danzig, Glenn's reading habits/shirtless library:

da-da-da-day, da-da-da-da-day-ay

Is it possible to see Sharon Jones, Bell Biv Devoe, Tony! Toni! Tone!, and Spike Lee all in one month?? I will ignore the fact that it's humanly impossible for me to stay awake past 8:30 p.m. these days, I'm not twenty years younger, $150 richer, and a total shut in.

Is that granny, Sinbad??

Yep.



I'm really trying to psych myself up here....

Eating the Screen

“The basic ingredient is the image. Let’s call it a diamond. An uncut diamond already gives off light, but improves when polished. Griffith cut facets into the diamond. It has the integrity of one element. The arrival of sound makes two elements. Sound and image. The basic ingredients are easy to grasp. In ceramics you’ve got clay and glaze. You fire it up in a kiln and ceramics emerge. The result is a new integrated element. The crisis in film is that so few have achieved this fusion. The only filmmaker who managed to do it was Vigo.”

-Henri Langlois from Le Fantôme d'Henri Langlois

Vigo's fusion:

A project of mine that's been in the works and plans for almost two years now will hopefully be unveiled on this here blod in the next month. I'll be posting a podcast of a mix of music from film with sometimes either a theme or with an accompanied spoken word history/trivia/connection of the chosen pieces. (This will probably depend on how much time I have at first!) This will be a work in progress, so please bear with me.

You have to wait about 45 seconds to get through the gay host intro, but here's more Vigo:

Take Me the Way I am

It's three weeks into the new year and I've hit my first lull in the blod. The week has been long, full and emotional. I planned to unveil my 'mission statement' to the world for 2008, but It's been all babies babies babies for the last 24+ hours and I'm outta gas. So let these visual and auditory stimulations assist you in drifting off to sleep and turning your headlights out. Tomorrow, Tomorrow............
