Friday Ephemera
Paper tank. // Airplane graveyard. // “My Death Star will cost how much?” // There’s a cow in my car. (h/t, I B Friesian) // Humans are among us! // Vintage space age illustrations. (h/t, Things) // 101 infrared photographs. // Shoe Snot and Metrobot. // Barbie and her hair. // Prince Charles is a fatuous prick. // When handicrafts go wrong. (h/t, Chastity Darling) // Every single curse word from The Sopranos. // Nano-landscapes. // Gentle monsters. // Because beauty comes in all head sizes. // Drum machine. // When flowers glow. // Bushfires. // Pac-Man oven gloves. (h/t, Coudal) // And, via The Thin Man, it’s BB Davis & the Red Orchidstra.
The infra-red photos are wonderful.
I’m getting Carter. 🙂
BB Davis! Awesome.
Stereolab’s version (it starts 1 min in): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GybvOrphN2M
It’s not as good as the B.B. Davis one but there are clips from the film.
And the cheesy US trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZNanYU0zq4
“Carter – the hated killer… the cool lover…”
The BB Davis version is rather nifty, isn’t it? It noodles a bit in the middle, but it’s got a languid charm. And the US trailer is seriously cheesy. It looks like it was cut together with the blunt edge of a brick.
The Sopranos thing is hypnotic.
