Title of the post catch your eye? This ain't what you think. Only Expressionists and fans of the Fluxus need proceed.
VIDEO ON DEMAND
A friend of mine who builds $3 million homes for spoiled rich people (and then puts up with enormous amounts of shit from them in the ensuing 12-18 month process) recently sent me a link to a video. Danny is a guy who, if he sends a link to a video: I watch it. Unlike many, he is not given to spastic email forwards.
I got to thinking about it. I've only forwarded one Utube video to anyone this year...
From the vaults of my 'way too weird to be true even in America' file is this video featuring the Olson Twins. It is an edit of a piece taken from one of their Disney Network shows - one presumes this was prior to the anorexia, cocaine and lawyers beginning to have their inevitable effects on these little women.
Given subsequent developments, not only as regards the personal situation of the Olsons, but say, the increasing incidence of Type II diabetes in the Disney Channel's primary target audience, I see the video as a piece of found performance art of grotesquely elegant irony.
Will you allow a Twilight Zone introduction?
