Another movie with a sense of innocence that children tend to censor really fast in their lives (for good and bad reasons). Not a movie you can feel if you only look for the story to follow with an half-dead brain and defensive attitude. One of the best movies I ever saw about a child inner life, hoping you can still access this part of you. 

I watched this short animated movie made for Adults many times. I still don't understand the story and most of the visual metaphors either. But I am fascinated by the many dimensions like I rarely am for so long. It is far from being only about the visual and sound dimensions like it is so often the case in most animated movies made by computer technicians (received on my yearly dense Ars Electronica compilation by example : http://www.aec.at/news/).

One of the most beautiful videos found on this server. Really stands out in its striking emotional force. I have seen this 7 hours movie many times already and connect much with Arvo Pärt's music.

Performance art video by Paul McCarthy (http://vimeo.com/38510381). There something about the way he attacks sexuality and childhood that specially talks to me. Like McCarthy (he said it in interview), I don't remember any childhood trauma (my parents are as nice as can be), yet, I feel perfectly at home with the theme through the realm of creation.

I (and you) could get lost forever in the mental associations of this one (http://vimeo.com/37564374) made in one hour since this brilliant and scary dance show by Waltz (I usually scare pro-yoga dancers, but this time it is the opposite, a rare time when I am really getting into the contemporary dance approach) includes about everything I wrote about in my book written in French La savante devait dominer around 2008-09. This book is linked to my music album Le savant devait arriver avant songeur (2008).

You can download the original dance video on UbuWeb :

with a video that had English subtitles. They complete well the lyrics of my song Intention Dévorante. The result is close enough to what I had in mind while writing the original poem (http://vimeo.com/34824794).

In Duet for Cannibals (1969), the critic Susan Suntag brings in a story that was most imitated. She thinks about more meanings than most directors care or are able to do. This brilliant movie can be downloaded for free (we hope for long under the current climate, let's enjoy it now, it says a lot about it) on the essential Ubuweb : http://www.ubu.com/film/sontag.html

Long live the romantics ! This video collage with my music (Berger Rond) makes me specially happy with the giant Orson Welles, at the top of his game, adapting the Giant Shakespeare. I try my best on my own Middle Age fantasy in Bruissement de griserie. It still feels like one of my best compositions, proudly pop (in my standards) with some of my fastest dynamics and most carefully recorded and mixed vocals (with guest vocal composition, she always composes her own vocal and I edit-recompose it, by Viveka Eriksson). Dan Stearns on submarine electronics and Jörg Fisher on extra dry drums.

(Open outside freakywaves to avoid content control ; the link works fine on vimeo and youtube). Video worked out with a 6.5 gigs Blu-Ray this time and rendered full HD (http://vimeo.com/32817719). I was surprise to find the right music composition for my favourite movie of all. I found it right away. Compassion doesn't come easily in my music, but All Words in World (2009) feels like it I believe, an important composition for me now. The poem that Viveka Eriksson sings is one of my best and most accessible. Available on my album Forecast Proof (2009)
