The last of a dying breed.
A personal blog is so old fashioned.
But I’d still like to get back to regularly pissing my thoughts into the snow.
If only it would snow.

Watched this DVD last night. Haven’t gotten past disc one but it’s a damn good look at Steve Austin’s career.
I suspect, even without know the context, the sound would be deeply unsettling.
The coronal suture of the skull [has]… a certain similarity to the closely wavy line which the needle of a phonograph engraves on the receiving, rotating cylinder of the apparatus. What if one changed the needle and directed it on its return journey along a tracing which was not derived from the graphic translation of sound, but existed of itself naturally well, to put it plainly, along the coronal suture, for example. What would happen? A sound would necessarily result, a series of sounds, music…Feelings—which?

The Rules To Properly Enjoy a Film
Rule 1. (to kill expectation)
Go into the film without having read or watched anything. Trailers are acceptable, as they are sometimes created by film directors themselves, though even that sometimes is questionable.Rule 2. (to kill projection)
Assess what the film is trying to say or achieve within the realm of what kind of movie it is trying to be. Do not project your own expectations. Let the film dictate the level of expectation, be that tonally, narratively or conceptually.Then, assess how well you think the film reaches whatever goals it set out to achieve.
Rule 3. (to kill hype)
Don’t talk about the film with anyone who has not seen it, except if you’re encouraging them to go see it. Only discuss the film with those that have seen it, and discuss it hard. That’s what it’s there for.
