Hi all.

Just in case you needed some art house bizzarre-ness to get you over the hump today, please check this out:

Well, I couldn't view it. But one look at the cast list, and I see....

Bjork.

Just imagining what she's up to can satisfy my weirdness quota for the better part of a week.

"The core idea of Drawing Restraint 9 is the relationship between self-imposed resistance and creativity, a theme it symbolically tracks through the construction and transformation of a vast sculpture of liquid Vaseline, called “The Field”, which is molded, poured, bisected and reformed on the deck of the ship over the course of the film."

That's the sort of pretentiousness that normally makes my naughty bits retreat back up into my abdominal cavity, but I have to say the trailer looks intriguing and I usually have a high tolerance for arty nonsense that Bjork is involved in. So this might be worth a look. The trailer is gorgeous- I'm guessing 24P video, not film. Have to look on imDb.

It must SO rock to be Bjork.

You: "Hey Bjork, wanna come over next week and play X-box??"
Bjork: "I can't- I'm going on an expidition to explore the relationship between self-imposed resistance and creativity, a theme we'll symbolically track through the construction and transformation of a vast sculpture of liquid Vaseline, called “The Field”, which will be molded, poured, bisected and reformed on the deck of a ship. For a movie."

Is it just me or is Bjork an Icelandic version of Yoko Ono?

I think I double posted, but not sure.

It's Coacoa Puffs, Bob. I have no idea why, but it fits the equation.

I think it's just you. Bjork has actual talent, I enjoy her work, she's kind of attractive from certain angles and she hasn't broken up any bands (that I care about).

And she was on Space Ghost : Coastto Coast. That counts for something?

S'funny Sardu should mention bits retracting into his abdominal cavity because the trailer of Drawing Restraint 9 reminds me of The Cremaster Cycle for some reason (the cremaster muscle raises and lowers the scrotum).

Similar look and feel. Well, not feel perhaps.

Hi there. No, I don't think that is a coincidence. The message board on IMDB mentioned the Cremaster Cycle, and the symbol is the same... I have not seen any of them, though...

Huh. Just more proof of the synchronicity that exists at the junction of all space and time. Or something. Cremaster looks distressingly Bjork free, I'm afraid.

...or proof that I didn't check things out on IMDB before firing off a post. Silly me.
And yes, the Cremaster Cycle is down in the Bjork department by one. It is Bjorkless.



We've got to get some booze, it's the only solution to this intense cold.
