Courtesy of Elizabeth Dee Gallery. Did having the book as an inspirational foundation affect the length? Were there new considerations that came up in making a longer video? Using the book as inspiration definitely urged us to make a longer piece. Even though the book is very untraditional, we wanted to approach it like a classic novel to screen adaptation, which would A Crackup at the Race Riots translate to a longer video work, a feature film. For instance, Tumblr and With Me are quite humorous, whereas this project promises images of decay and poverty left A Crackup at the Race Riots the wake of the recession. So, what inspired that shift? LG : Yeah the film is more sinister than our other videos, the humor is subtler, but is present throughout the film. Like the novel, we think it contains sad, absurd, offensive, funny and dark parts. Harmony mentioned the story takes place in , which immediately made us think about the sunshine state after being hit hard by the real estate crash and later the economical collapse. This highlighting of the poverty and decay, we felt was fitting with the general mood of the book. LG : We already had the idea to make the film in and most of it was finished [before now]. Through social media and the Internet, you are confronted with the fact that there still is a lot of racial tension, so it already seemed very relevant to make the film and include this. For example, with the reference to in the novel, we directly thought about the video of the college girls who posted a racial rant in online. But themes from the book like teen obsession, celebrity, race, death, religion, are all still applicable today. Dada was also the birth of collage, a medium you work in quite often, and your interpretation uses all found footage from the Internet. Would you consider this project a form of modern, internet-age collage in its own way? When we read the book for the first time, we immediately thought that the way this book is put together, the collage element would work perfectly with our approach to video and our work in general. WW: In terms of the audio for the video, what is the significance of using text-to-speech software? What was your process for the score? LG: Using the computer to translate the text to audio files, which we could use in the film fits in the collage spirit. We like the idea of the whole film being composed from A Crackup at the Race Riots elements all in connection with the computer. The strangeness of the semi human sounding text-to-speech voices also adds to translate the absurdness of the novel to the screen. The music and sound are a big aspect of the film and all audio used is either pop music we remixed or altered in some way to A Crackup at the Race Riots the scene. Or they are sounds and music we made ourselves using computer programs. Also two songs made by Harmony are included. Loading - Please wait. Leo Gabin: A Crackup At View Gallery - 1 images.

Review Hurt is Universal. The bizarre and dark humour of his films has garnered them a large cult following. Someone once said to F. He would A Crackup at the Race Riots abruptly terminate, shame-facedly, an interview with Charles Ramsey. Cuttings from a interview, letters and lists from Tupac Shakur, rumours about Jackson Pollock and others, are churned up alongside spurious quotations from TS Eliot, and a wonderful Emily Dickinson imitation: Angels — twice descending Reimbursed my store — burglar! Banker — Father! I am poor once more! I remember basically the process was that I would hear things, or I would see things Or I would see a pair of socks hanging from a telephone pole with a Star of David on the ankle, and I would just write that. The whole is subordinate to the parts: an extended, sustained twitter-feed, a variegated tumblr. And yet the fragments also merge and coalesce the more one reads, and become difficult to untangle. I very rarely flick through a book, but after 50 pages I found myself breezing forward and backwards and losing A Crackup at the Race Riots impetus to finish it. The title advertises a crackup, perhaps one of many, at a race riot — but which one? Incidentally, Korine was raised in Nashville, Tennessee. He waited with serenity. Life had never been good enough to him for him to wince at its destruction. He told A Crackup at the Race Riots that he was indifferent even to his own dissolution. It seemed to him that this indifference was the most that human dignity could achieve, and for the moment forgetting his lapses, forgetting even his narrow escape of the afternoon, he felt he had achieved it. To feel nothing was peace. Although his writing is often explicit, Korine is more interested in the weird calmness that precedes or follows the storm than the violent act itself. The narration of the book is almost infinitely detached. The symbol for Prince has been carved into their bellies. The girl has small fingers and boobs. It is all here, the obscene violence as in the folk-etymology, out-of-the-scene, off-stagethe crudity, the humour, the celebrity-culture, in the implication that Prince has gone mad. This is the work of a visual thinker. The text bears an immense, unrelievable tension.
