Trip Scene from “Beavis and Butthead Do America”- segment directed by Chris Pyrnoski

11 Apr

I remember watching “Beavis and Butthead Do America” at a Viacom watching party. At the time, I was working at Nickelodeon and Chris Pyrnoski was kind of in-house famous for getting his own show, Downtown, on MTV. The trip scene was by far my favorite part of the movie. After hearing that Mr.Pyrnoski had directed it, I was an instant fan. He has since gone on to great things like starting his own studio, Titmouse, and directing on the oh so awesome show Metalocalypse. He uploaded an early animatic from the movie:

Sodeoka – Distortion III Preview (2015)

11 Apr

 

It doesn’t get more mind-bending and challenging than the modern master of video feedback Yoshihide Sodeoka… He’s just released the 21 minute video Distortion III: an eruption of noise, colour and AV complexity that will melt your visual cortex. It’s available for $5 as video on demand and download,  I’ve prepared to pay the ticket and take the ride in HD and so should you. I’ll see you on the other side…

Maximum the Hormone

11 Apr

Very nearly missed this one in my search for psychedelic videos, as I can’t say I’ve immersed myself in a whole lot of metal, and things don’t start to get visually psychedelic until around 1:43. Skip ahead if you like, though I think the video’s progression is made so much sweeter by taking it in the whole way through.

A bit of explanation for the super catchy line at the finish: Winny is apparently p2p software that was once quite popular in Japan, but isn’t really used so much anymore. Comparable to Napster.

“Psychedelic Zion” follows the ups and downs of three rave organizers who operate under the banner “Peace and Love Production.” Filmed over the course of two years, director Isri Halpern follows the trio from their first ecstatic parties on the hillsides of the Galilee, into the living rooms of their religious, working-class families, and deep into the fray of their eventual and sometimes violent clashes with the police. In the midst of a public furor, they take their case to the government and the Supreme Court, fighting for the right to live out their psychedelic dreams.

Roky Erickson Demon Angel A Day and Nite with Roky Erickson Halloween 1984-George Cedarskoog

4 Apr

Last week’s post had me gushing on the majestic beauty of the California coast, but before I was a Californian, I was (am) a Texan. Spending many of my formative years in Austin, TX, exposed me to the psychedelic, horrifying, extra-terrestrial sweet sweet genius of Roky Erickson. Demon Angel gives us a glimpse into his peculiar mind with heart melting performances by Roky. The film opens with my all time favorite Roky song Bloody Hammer. Actually, Bloody Hammer, is my all-time favorite song EVER. Check out this version:

There’s much more Roky to post, but I will save more for later to prolong the Roky experience. I hope you enjoy.
