Emancipatore – Nevergreen

8 May

I just discovered this abstract hip hop / trip hop producer from Portland, and found his music relaxing full of melancholia  !

“Emancipator’s music can not be described by just one word. To do so we’d have to combine into one: hypnosis, beauty, melancholy, a little bit of heartace and this „something” that makes shiver run down your spine.
This video — the very first Emancipator’s official video — was meant to be an experiment. Can the beauty of music match and — once again — combine totally random shots into a unity? Can we mix all those elements into one?”

Sándor Reisenbüchler: A Nap és a Hold elrablása / The Abduction of the Sun and the Moon (1968)

7 May

This is the first film in a trilogy by Hungarian Sándor Reisenbüchler. It is based on a poem by Ferenc Juhász
At 04:28 you can see some characters resembling Wondjinas, so it is possible that Reisenbüchler was familiar with the work of the “ancient aliens” -freak Erich von Däniken.

Below are included the 2nd and 3rd part of the trilogy for reference. They make use of photomontage and collage techniques.
