Alec Empire of Atari Teenage Riot in Mexico City 2012
Alec Empire on the Keiser Report
Hahaha. No holograms, please!
The discussion with Alec Empire is about half-way in.
Three things.
- My massive crush on Alec Empire is not helped by him being intelligent, erudite and opinionated. Nor is it aided by him having a lovely smile.
- I want my own Alec Empire hologram to talk to.
- Should the zombie apocalypse come, his brains are still on my top 10 list for the inevitable time when I succumb to the zombie plague (sorry Alec).
Happy birthday, Charlie!
Étienne-Jules Marey. Flying Pelican, ca. 1882.
“Marey’s chronophotographic gun was made in 1882, this instrument was capable of taking 12 consecutive frames a second, and the most interesting fact is that all the frames were recorded on the same picture…”
Just discovered him in Agnès Varda’s fantastic The Gleaners and I (2000). Gorgeous documentation. Not cool enough for Google???
Muybridge Buffalo galloping.
Muybridge killed a man and abandoned his son to an orphanage. Fascinating.
