Takashi Murakami-BBC Documentary
1 NovTakashi Murakami is one of the more enigmatic artists of our time. His works flirt (or more than that) with both the psychedelic world (with as obvious works as the psy mushroom figures) and the capitalist world. This BBC documentary tries to follow the philosophy behind Murakami’s art. It does give an interesting insight to the philosophy behind the work, but somehow I feel that someone that is not full submerged in the Japanese culture cannot fully understand the messages that Murakami conveys in his art.
It Felt Like a Kiss- By Adam Curtis
25 OctI don’t usually upload whole films but this one is just a masterpiece!
Adam Curtiss’ documentary film about the U.S. creates a collage of archive videos and music that succeeds being at the same time informative, thought provoking, colorful and psychedelically mind blowing!
In my view “It felt like a kiss” does in film what D.J. food didin music in his DJ Food is Raiding the 20th century (and if you haven’t listned to this mix yet you owe it to yourself!)

Bowerbirds – In Our Talons
20 Sep
And the warblers sing: deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet!
And the sparrows sing: deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet!
Through the wheels, through the wheels on the interstate,
And hear no refrain.
And the beetles creep (deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet!)
On the crippled trees, (deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet!)
And they look down to where the soil must have been, wondering.
And no, youre not alone. No, my cousins, youre not alone.
Youre in our talons now, and were never letting go.
And the branches bend (deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet!)
To the growing sea. (deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet-deet!)
And they ask, and they ask it to spread their seeds,
For they know theyre drowning.
And no, youre not alone. No, my cousins, youre not alone.
Youre in our talons now, and were never letting go.
Youre in our headlights, frozen, and no, were not stopping.
You may not believe, but even we were scared at first.
It takes a lot of nerve to destroy this wondrous earth.
Were only human; this at least weve learned
