Just Dust

My favourite living filmmakers, the Quay Brothers, have a new film out.

Sanatorium Under the Sign of the Hourglass.

Here's something I wrote about their use of dust.

Very important to them, dust.

I couldn't hurt you. It's so nice to talk with you, like we are almost related. The way you speak, your gestures, your mouth, everything. It's delightful to behave in that rather weak sort of way with you. Just think: me, your master, confessing to you, my pathetic little worm whom I could utterly crush if I chose to.

A FILM FROM EACH YEAR OF MY LIFE: Institute Benjamenta, or This Dream People Call Human Life (1995) dir. the Brothers Quay

Morgan: so Morgan: this woman is the daughter of a famous stop motion animator Morgan: and she starts making her own movie Morgan: but you know how it is when you try to do stop motion and you've got mommy issues Stephen Quay: do i ever! Timothy Quay: mom always liked you best

Morgan: you know how it is when you have mommy issues Morgan: it means Morgan: real fucked up puppets

LOS ÁNGELES no son dorados, brillantes ni luminosos; son grises y caminan entre la multitud que arrastra los pies; entre la muchedumbre, sin color y sin rostro, de los domingos, hacia el fútbol, hacia el concierto mañanero, entre la pálida muchedumbre de los días de fiesta vacíos del mundo moderno. Ángeles grises de la pobreza y el anonimato que nadie ve, pero que muchos han sentido: un roce leve, una ligereza, un estremecimiento en el mar de la multitud anónima...El mundo de hoy no permite otros...Los de fuego y luz no vienen hoy. Sólo los otros, los ángeles de polvo y ceniza.

María Zambrano, Poemas. Edición de Javier Sánchez Menéndez. La Isla de Siltolá

Fotograma de Institute Benjamenta, o This Dream People Call Human Life,1996, primer largometraje de Brothers Quay. Se basa en "Jakob von Gunten", novela escrita por Robert Walser.

NOT OUT OF THE WOODS YET by Otto Rapp Via Flickr: Created in NIGHTCAFE - Stable Diffusion SDXL 1.0 - New Feature: trained Model for Drawing. Here I trained AI with over 60 images of my drawings, the result of this training is combined with my textprompt. the prompt included H.R. GIGER, BOSCH and BOGOMIL'S UNIVERSE EVOLVED from a botched previous evolve. This time, burned it with 60% prompt and 70% noise! The evolve trail goes back to a actual drawing of mine as a seed image, but I relegated the previous one to the archives. It was basically a repeat of what went before. Lesson learned. If you want variations, then go above 50% with the noise level.
