I have this feeling that I’m increasingly failing to understand the World. I read different news sources, some blogs, etc…but somehow I don’t feel like I’m quite getting to the bottom of “what’s happening”. I don’t understand the Oil Spill. I don’t understand Mel Gibson’s situation. It’s a hazy quagmire of one narrative overlaying another.
When I was younger, I read newspapers and Time and a few other things and I felt like I had a good handle on big events.
But we’ve entered into a realm of Massive Accounts – blogs, Twitter, FB, etc – and this lends a dream-like aspect to Current Events.
So I’m interested in creating an unreliable news source. One that directly permits factual looseness. I imagine it would look like The Huffington Post or TMZ. Just a blog site. All the important news events would be covered. But they would all be run through the mill of amnesia, dream, and imagination. Not to create something “funny” exactly. Anyway -
Ha! I love this video! That song at the end is you, right? I’d love to hear more stuff from you in this vein. I love the acoustic/piano stuff and the Ron and Fez songs but this is an interesting bit of music as well.
That really was awesome, a whole new side of you. I think you need to dissect celeb culture a bit more. I particularly like the bit about Britney/Brittany’s hair killing her.
And watch out for that guy running into the field. He might get ya!
