I don't know how coherent this video actually is. I got sick for like two weeks which messed up its production. I employed a form Burroughs's cut-up technique while writing. There are many other people/groups I could have mentioned, but I felt this was long enough to give a good impression and I wanted to try some new editing stuff/rendering. The title might even change because I'm still not settled on it. I'm willing to take suggestions if anyone has a better title. In all honesty: It came to me in a dream.
Burroughs books are almost impossible to film, which is a paradox because they are extremely visual, cinematographic. Maybe a talented director can make something with the Red Night Trilogy.
Yeah, I read it all in high school during the summer many years ago. "The Gunslinger" is probably the best longer work Stephen King ever wrote and I think it is what he'll be remembered for. I enjoy the rest of the series too. I also like "The Stand".
The Sisters of Mercy were a great example of depressive apocalyptic British rock from the 1980's, and Floodland is still one of the greatest albums I've ever owned. Still have it on CD to this day.
I will check them out! As said, this video isn't very deep, but I walked to bring up some discussion it. There were a few other sections that got cut, maybe they'll emerge one day in other forms.
It is very interesting. There's not one part of culture his novels didn't touch. Writing wasn't even he main pursuit half the time. Funny he's usually mocked for have turgid and very stilted prose, but his legacy won out in the end. There's something to be said you're so popular and powerful in your time you become superfluous.
Love this video. I hace been listening to nuclear war ditties for years. Atomic platters crooning under Atom's sweet glow. Another great british swinging tune is Fallout Shelter by the comedic duo of Mike and Bernie Winters, it's not somber at all, it's cheery and enthusiastic that's what makes it so sinister, so delightful. Not a brit top pop, but a Euroatomic sensation was Vamos a la Playa, a song about fun and games in the nuclear wasteland. A Spanish band who has made great songs about Atom's gifts is Aviador Dro, they are great overall, you may be interesed in them Pseudiom, they mixed New Order, Devo with Apocaliptic and Space Opera elements. Excellent video. Don't forget to tune in Conelrad 640 and 1240 on the dial.
Very interesting! I will check out Aviador Dro. I've never heard of them before and they have quite the discography. I'll have to give them a listen and read up more on them in Spanish.
Lot of parallels between Ziggy Stardust and Imaginos in both literal narrative and underlying theming, wouldn't you say? Imaginos is almost like the American answer to Ziggy
Both Bowie and Pearlman read Burroughs so that's probably the shared influence and a general interest in occultism. Term "Heavy Metal" was (probably) taken from a Burroughs book. Early ideas for BOC were a lot more dramatic like Ziggy too: fake stag names, costumes, and rock opera aspects. Only stuff that stuck with BOC was lasers and Buck's name. It would be interesting to write a comparison piece between them.
@@Pseudiom Very true. I also think Bowie leaned way more into the transgressive sexuality of Burroughs, though it's present in Pearlman/BOC as well with stuff like Dizbusters and Imaginos' gender-fluidity.

As a Burroughs enthusiast, I aprove of your efforts.

Do you like the Dark Tower?

In my humble opinion, his best work are his short stories, his B-movies.

Sisters of Mercy are so cool

you just won't stop making videos that pierce my heart and interests
The influence Bulwer Lyton had on everything, from occultism, politics to the arts is incredible.

Threads was honestly one of the most horrifying and disturbing movies I've ever seen
It's unlike anything else I've watched
It should be required viewing for everyone seeking a political career.
@@waverlyking6045 it should be mandatory viewing for Boris Johnson and Emmanuel Macron.
@@stuartwray6175 It should be mandatory viewing for ALL who seek positions of authority, not just those two.
not schizophrenic enough, otherwise an interesting video
Read the "Promenade" if you want a dose of academic schizophrenia.
First?
Maybe.
