    for all of you who are fascinated by brutalist architecture, i can highly recommend the film/ sci-fi documentary "Last and First Men", it tells the story of a future-ancient civilization through overwhelming shots of Yugoslavian brutalist architecture overlaid with narration by Tilda Swinton, it's truly mesmerizing

    While i was watching this video Antonin Artaud's Theatre Of Cruelty came to mind, for some reason. I'm not sure if u have ever heard of it, but i think u might find it interesting as well. I wanna share a bit about it for those who are interested. (Thank u internet for helping me out with the explanation.)
    Artaud believed that civilization had turned humans into sick and repressed creatures and that theater could make the audience reconnect with their internal world and the dreams in which their taste for crime, their erotic obsessions, their cannibalism, etc poured out. Theater was supposed to liberate humans from societal pressure and expectations. The type of theater, the Theatre Of Cruelty, that Artaud meant was very experimental. He wanted to disrupt the relationship between audience and performer. Through shocking and confronting the audience, he wanted to wake up the nerves and heart. He used expressions, gestures, sounds and lights in his attempts to shock the viewers. The experience as a whole, so including the response of the audience members, was considered to be the performance.

    You hit the nail on the head when discussing Brutalism and sexuality. The idea, even, of a brutalist building being… “erected”… and the behaviors surrounding what it must be like to design and construct these buildings…there’s something so sobering yet subliminal. Same goes for Boullée and the Cenotaph of Isaac Newton…there’s definitely a yearning and mourning quality to it.

      I'm from Bulgaria and there are concrete soviet buildings almost everywhere. Most of them are living buildings, which most people find ugly, but since i was a kid, i have adored them. When i stare at them, I always try to imagine who lives in a certain window, what does their kitchen counter look like, and their carpets, I also wonder if they like fruits or what kinds of games they like playing as a kid. I feel so lucky to live right next to a forest with a masive bunker, the entrances of which are literally just concrete block the size of a car. There are also random cement platforms and a lot of abandoned constructions all around the city. I loved going in the older ones because they have less guards.
      I have a vivid childhood memory of an abandoned school. It was just in a grass field right next to an artificial spruce forest(there is a coal mine right next to Pernik, and they planted spruce trees on some of the overburden there around 1960-1970). Standing in it and looking at the peeled wall paint, old rusty toilets, and empty rooms feels like I'm looking something so forgotten and beyond abandoned. I mostly enjoy the juxtapositioning of the concrete, broken windows, syringes, and the peace of the green forest and a river. They both give me the same calmness and warmth, but in a different way.
      I looooveee how grey everything looks when it rains, i have almost felt at the most peace while it's gloomy and and wet and standing on the kitchen window on the 6th floor and admiring such a beautiful view of people walking in hurry and how the buildings turn slightly darker due to the rain.
      My favorite activity is getting very high and going to a random place in the center of Sofia so I can play pretend a person walking around, meanwhile having no idea where i am, but it feels comforting to see little shops, wall art, abandoned houses, restaurants all squished in between soviet apartment buildings

    The brutalist architecture book is so interesting, and I've never thought about that design in the sense of eroticism but it's so true. I think another part of it is how blatant and transparent (oddly enough given it's literal concrete opacity) it is in its presence. It's not pretending to be something it isn't, and it doesn't apologize for itself or give what some may deem excessive explanation (or rather, cushioning? justification? it isn't adorned for the sake of acceptance or awe). It simply ~*is*~ which is so fitting in conjunction with the helplessness you talked about. It's not asking or hoping that you accept it, it forces you to and doesn't seemingly care. I think domineering was a perfect description.

What you present to the internet and people, these introductions to unique and foreign concepts to a rather uniform majority is nothing less than extraordinary. You have changed my outlook on the world as a whole and in a way raised and grown this whole part of me that I didn’t know was there. An affinity for things that have been rendered as old and forgotten, as well as different pieces of media etc. I hope I get to come to one of your concerts some day to see (and try not to cry in front of but definitely fail) this person I have almost infinite respect and admiration for. You have truly inspired me without even knowing me, I love you Hayden.

    As someone who has always disliked brutalist architecture, you really opened my eyes to the power and attractionality(?) that these buildings exude. And I totally get the feeling of going somewhere to disappear from known society, getting lost in a labyrinth or a forest. I always got this feeling as a child when the sun had set in the countryside. The vast darkness covering the fields, meadows and forests, knowing that no human activity is happening in this space until the sun rises is exhilarating to me. Its thalassophobic almost. Thinking of all the empty spaces that exist on earth, where no human consciousness exists. In deep contrast to the consciousness-heavy cities and settlements. Im rambling lmao - thank you for another brilliant video Hayden

    I used to visit a brutalist library near me and it was my favourite in the city until it was knocked down (RIP). It was dark and clunky and outdated and expensive to run, but that also made it comforting because it was almost human, it was falling apart just like a person does. It was not all fun clean lines and bright colours, it didn’t hide from anything. It was subject to time yet felt like an infallible giant. It gave a very wabi sabi vibe which is weird because the materials were anything but natural. Looooved the architecture commentary, everyone say thank you Hayden 💜

  • @fiaistired
    @fiaistired 7 месяцев назад +17

    I very much agree with your take about brutalist architecture. I’m from and I live in a post soviet country so I get to see a lot of beautiful brutalist buildings whenever I go out in the city. Most larger cities here have some brutalist building that one can stare longingly at. Unfortunately with the rise of commercialism it’s more often than not that within the view of the building of monument there will be some sort of add which ruins the experience ever so slightly, unless you manage to find a spot in which the ugly add might be obscured (which isn’t always possible). I’d add for people who might not have a lot of contact with brutalist buildings that some of them (the ones with giant slabs of concrete, the modernist ones specifically designed to be unique and imposing) give you the same feeling you might get if you’ve just arrived to a mountainous region and are surrounded by overwhelming grandeur. The anxious small but also overwhelming and intense feeling of vastness or monumentality. I love how Hayden described them feeling as if you’re seized by this incredible power you can’t control. Sort of like being held there by the hand of a giant or God and being made to gaze.
    Also i love the take that brutalist churches with their inherent implication of God lose that imposing godly touch out of their structures. The warmth of familiarity present within those churches really does strip away the coldness and alienness. It’s such an interesting take that I never really gave that much thought to. I have felt that those churches made me feel different than the other brutalist buildings but I didn’t give much thought as to why.
    also! btw! Russia is half in Europe and half in Asia. A lot of the bigger more well known cities are on the European side of Russia - like Moscow, St. Petersburg - but Russia is HUGE and there is plenty to see on both sides.

    Long comment. Sorry. It might also be TMI, too personal, or displeasing. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Trying to thread a needle here.
    Regarding social nonacceptance of strangeness, I'm pretty sure that's what sociologists call normative behavior/standards. All societies have them, though anarchist ones tend to be way more accepting of diversity. Our society is the exact opposite of this. It sucks. "The nail that sticks up gets hammered down." Much thought has been put into this by philosophers, critical theorists, feminists, revolutionaries, etc. I would very much like to hop into Shevek's world (Urras) from Ursula Le Guin's 'The Dispossessed' (highly recommended). It wasn't perfect but still... As it is, I might try to join an intentional community. There are plenty around.
    I wish I could just go off my feelings, but what if my feelings are wrong? I think maybe you escaped a lot of the indoctrination and conditioning that most of us (Americans) get because you were home-schooled, but in regular school you are conditioned to fit into a hierarchical, patriarchal, ableist, disciplinary, etc. system and it shapes your feelings about things, what one feels is normal, correct, possible, true. Plus, your (our) feelings come from thoughts. Assuming you take a materialist (neurocognitive) view of the mind (if you believe it's all magic and souls (no shade) then please disregard), then we have to process information (think) in order to have feelings about it. The processing can be purely associative, like the way you feel about Texaco. But if we don't know why we feel the things we do, then we're under the control of thoughts that escape our awareness. Doesn't mean we have to change them, but it helps to know what they are, where they came from. This is how a lot of political rhetoric/propaganda works. It manipulates the viewer into strong emotions to control their behavior without them understanding what they're even thinking, like how conservative pundits use the word 'woke' to describe anything they want the viewer to dislike. It doesn't have to make sense, just associating ideas with emotions, and playing off those emotions. I had a lot of bad ideas put into my head when I was young that I didn't know were there, that I spent most of my life expunging, and I still don't know if I got them all. So I know I can't trust my feelings. I'm glad you can, though.
    Unfortunately, reason was the only path/tool available to me to understand the world in which I was raised. I couldn't make sense of or accept people's behavior any other way. Many were unjust, cruel, dominating, controlling, hypocritical. I was often on the receiving end of this as a child, and there was no physical escape except temporarily into the woods or the safety of my room. My feelings were so intensely painful, that I needed some way to deal with it. Reason did that. I don't claim it's perfect. If anything, it's kind of a trap (why do things have to make sense?, etc.). Everything has to be dissected, analyzed. Nothing can be taken at face value. It demystifies, takes the magic out of things, like finding out Santa Claus is your parents. Everything becomes a lie on top of a purely material process. And it's easy to be a little too accepting of injustice and inequality because "that's just the way things are." Once one starts rationalizing things, or looking for rational explanations, it's easy to go too far, or be unable to stop, but I don't think I could have survived otherwise.
    I like that you're weird, but I worry about what the world of normal people will do to you, what I might unknowingly be doing. I'm much older than you, and I've put up with the world's shit for far longer. It's depressingly easy for me to figure out what most normal people will do, but I can't figure you out at all. It's wonderful. I watch some of your videos until I've nearly memorized the words, because I can't understand you and every viewing gives me something new. I want to protect you, and devour you (figuratively, sorry).
    Please take care of yourself. Getting old sucks, especially if you wear yourself out too soon. Yoga helps for aches and pains, I've found.

    Russia is actually both! it’s part on the european continent and part on the asian continent. Not a lot of people live on the asian side though, especially the further you go north, gets colder along those areas. a majority of russians live on the european continent, about like 80% of the population. but the european part of russia is only like 22(?)% of the total land area. the asian part of russia is what we hear referred to as Siberia. i struggled with geography too, so i took human geography instead so i know more about population density. and russia has always fascinated me because it’s the largest transcontinental country, and has the most population in europe, even though the european side is the smaller portion of the country

    You should play the game Kentucky Route Zero. I think it has visuals and a soundtrack you would really enjoy. Your discussion of Kowloon Walled City reminds me of a moment in the game where the characters find themselves in a place that makes them question whether they are inside or outside, and what those words even mean

    comedy doesn't necessarily mean humorous (as usual hollywood tends to pervert things and distort our understanding). the divine comedy is a comedy because in classical terms it's typically any work that has a happy ending. dante starts in a dark wood and then ends in with a vision of god and attains salvation. it's a journey from despair to heavenly bliss. also dante's choice of italian rather than latin was revolutionary at the time. most literary works were for scholars. by not using latin he made the poem accessible to common people. he also uses satire and irony which makes it somewhat humorous when describing the historical figures in hell and purgatory. he uses this similar to a comedian like bill burr to critique moral failings, corrupt politics, and religious contradictions.

    had this on in the background whilst doing my architecture school application task. it was so nice to hear about your art books. And i like how considerate you are in describing your feelings and connections to the art. I usually feel uneasy by ASMR but your tone and demeanour made the watch a really southing experience.

    When I was working my first job at an adult store (awesome place), I heard about electrostim toys, and even got a chance to test out a few on my arm during training. Depending on the toy and setting, the sensation ranges from a light burning, to a sort of rhythmic snapping/stinging (akin to the burn of getting a tattoo, but not as sharp), and then deeper contractions at the higher levels-basically making your muscles involuntarily clench with the speed of the pulses. You compared the feeling you get from looking at brutalist architecture to the sensation of vomiting, i.e. having your body seized by an external force, and it reminded me a lot of what they felt like-a kind of erotic fascism, as it were. I’m not too much of a masochist, and I don’t agree with the idea that kink is about extremes, but I do REALLY like the idea of “it’s controlling my body from the inside” on a psychosexual level. Falls under the category of objectum sexuality and the eroticism of the machine, too. I don’t know, maybe I’m as bad as Ayn Rand here. I just think they’re neat.

    i would love to hear you your thoughts and interpretations on some of the paintings by mark rothko. i feel as everyone has their own takeaways from the paintings, i would love to hear what some of your takeaways are and if you’ve ever gotten to see one in person as they’re scattered throughout the world. i always love watching your videos and am thankful we’re able to have this (i’m not sure if this word applies in this context but) medium of communication and dialogue from and with you 💞

    • @mothercain
      @mothercain  7 месяцев назад +6

      i'd love to talk about rothko! i don't have any of his works though so i might need to find a good book. i'm not big on color but his more muted works definitely appeal to me. there's a ken currie piece i talk about in the first art book tour (life story I but also II) that reminds me of a rothko. i love the color palette on it a lot.

    • @krystalxevette
      @krystalxevette 7 месяцев назад

      @@mothercain i would definitely agree with that. my favorite paintings from him are the more muted palettes as well as how he incorporated red into his paintings and how as time progressed, the brighter reds became more maroon, how his use of color became more muted as his life progressed. it’s so fascinating to me, especially with his very early work which contrasted his most famous works later on. i also love the execution of the rothko chapel and its purpose. it’s on one of my top places to visit
