1970, Stan Van Derbeek, Moirage

For my Ten Years of YK party, I used a lot of psychedelic imagery behind the promotional text to add a little flavor and motion. The piece that I used throughout the campaign is a bit of abstract cinema from 1970 called Moirage by experimental filmmaker Stan Vanderbeek. His personal history is worth a read through (i.e. he was friends with Buckminster Fuller and John Cage) but I highly suggest just watching his work.

Archive.org has a nice repository of Vanderbeek work, ranging from Fluid work to early Glitch work to the somewhat indescribable.

Watching ambient art installations may not be your thing but I suggest putting these on loop somewhere in your house and letting yourself just enjoy bits and pieces as they appear. Or, go all in, and watch this short documentary on him, which I will be doing ASAP.

I’m kind of obsessed with this tourism account for a non-existent island, which is aggressively advertising itself on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. https://t.co/eAAUu7sLSg

One thing I’ve noticed in my year of living here is people just emerge from the woods... jarringly often. My girlfriend ran into one woman who just came up off the sidewalk from a small waterway and was muttering about “looking for geodes.”

A super-cool bill of bands you don't get to see that often. I goofed and marked it as starting at 8 (fixed now), but it's 7 sharp, so don't miss out! https://t.co/ezuVes1QAR

Last week, I thought this Chris Gaines receeding into the bushes GIF was the perfect way to wrap up all my feelings on the whole Chris Gaines project from 20 years ago but then I saw this tweet in which Garth is quoted as saying "The Gaines project isn't done." WTF?!

I imagine this must be a misunderstanding because it's very difficult to imagine how Gaines would resurface in any way that isn't every bit as awkward as it was the first time. I guess time will tell. Gaines re-appears?

And now... distraction.

McBaise - She's a Big Boy - I love the illustration style of McBess and it's really nice to see some color thrown in and a much more laid back track to accompany it. The surprising turn at the end was a real delight. via Falfa.
TNGHT - Gimme Summn - completely mesmerizing despite the song being not great (to me). 100% defies description in all the best ways. via Chad.
Tim Allen Grunt Every Day - A playlist of 978 videos. That's 2.5 years of Tim Allen grunts. Every day. via Paige.
Curb Your Cybertruck - the new Tesla Cybertruck was unveiled and really lives up to the "super-futuristic cyberpunk" description Musk said it would. Everyone, rightfully, has thoughts. This moment at the unveil is perfect.
Lil Dog - delight.
Pug It - it's Friday my dudes.
In Bloom, by 10-year old Nandi Bushell - please please please stay tuned for the chorus.
Co-Pilot Loses Phone - even if it's staged, his face is priceless.

If you're in the Nashville area, please come out to this show on Saturday celebrating 10-years of YK Records. Gonna be a good time.
