Packed full of green badness
Nov. 6th, 2004 11:34 amI have clearly caught some revolting child-related lurgee ;-)
I've managed to pick up a cough, a cold and a sore throat. I don't feel *really* lousy yet, but I can tell it's working on it, and some of the stuff coming out of me is *revolting*. Is that too much information?
Anyway, last night I finished [I hope] the next in the Issigonis Eggs videos. This one however is, uh, a bit big. It's 23 minutes long, as it stands, and you won't believe how much stuff I cut and ditched. Anyway, it's being uploaded for checking by my co-conspiritor and main presenter; if it's passed then it'll move onto the 'published' phase of existence.
On another topic, due to the lurgee I've spent much of the morning lying on the sofa watching something I bought when I was living with Ais. She introduced me to the Daft Punk album Discovery (I did like Daft Punk already, but didn't have the album); and she told me that there was a film (being) made which featured the same blue people as in the videos...
....I bought the DVD recently, and it is really just that; it's an extended hour and a bit music video featuring the blue people from the videos for "one more time", and it works incredibly well. There's no speech, to speak of, in the film, and it's phenominal how well the album tells the story. It's sort of remeniscent of Ulysees 31 (for those who remember such things) in style. I can't really think of anything really intelligent to write about it; but hey, if you like Daft Punk and liked the blue-people videos for their songs then you'll probably like Interstella 5555. Also, it was only a tenner from Fopp on DVD.
