Way late. I just got another e-mail from Luke Sullivan asking when this foreword to Hey, Whipple, Squeeze This would be done. I was also late reading his earlier e-mail about being late because there were about 200 other e-mails in front of that one, most of them about something I owed somebody and they were asking why it was late. The thing is, I’m not one of those “late people.” Really. I love work and I hate being late and I pretty much never miss a deadline. I think being late is poor form, so I’m feeling a little like a dolt right now. It’s just that I’ve been so damn busy. So busy I wasn’t even able to fit a martini into my lunch break. Damn. Actually, I haven’t had a martini lunch in my entire career. I eat lunch at my desk. Those three-martini lunches are long gone, and they’ve been replaced with a business that’s more competitive and fast-paced than even the movie industry. These days, there’s simply a lot more to do. The single television spot or print ad has been replaced by the integrated campaign—a single big idea that works across every media. An idea that can 15934_Sullivan_fbetw_3p.r.qxp 1/2/08 10:04 AM Page xii xii Foreword by Alex Bogusky draw the consumer out and compel him or her to spend some time with the brand, and maybe even some money. It’s a lot of work and it ain’t for the faint of heart. But as my Dad used to say, “It’s better than diggin’ ditches.” In the end, it’s rarely the deadlines or the amount of work that keep us from getting the job done. Hell, it’s never even the lack of a big idea.You see, new media, untraditional media, integration,—they may be the buzzwords we read every day in the hype that surrounds our business. But so far as I know, they’ve yet to come up with a powerful form of communication that does not at least begin life as words. Failure in advertising most often comes from the lack of this basic skill in finding the right words. The ability to find the words to write down an idea or to present an idea in the most compelling way possible. That’s the wisdom that’s in this book—in words. It’s Bogusky has read it at ם why everybody here at Crispin Porter least once. And it’s why some of the really brilliant and successful people I’ve met in this business have read it two, even three times. Which reminds me, I’m going to read it again. When I get the time. 15934_Sullivan_fpref_3p.r.qxp 1/2/08 10:04 AM Page xiii PREFACE THIS IS MY FANTASY. We open on a tidy suburban kitchen.Actually, it’s a room off the side, one with a washer and dryer. On the floor is a basket full of laundry. The camera closes in. Out of the laundry pops the cutest little stuffed bear you’ve ever seen. He’s pink and fluffy, has a happy little face, and there’s one sock stuck adorably to his left ear. “Hi, I’m Snuggles, the fabric-softening bear. And I . .” The first bullet rips into Snuggles’s stomach, blows out of his back in a blizzard of cotton entrails, and punches a fist-sized hole in the dryer behind. Snuggles grabs the side of the Rubbermaid laundry basket and sinks down, his plastic eyes rolling as he looks for the source of the gunfire. 1 Taking cover behind ⁄16th-inch of flexible acrylic rubber, Snuggles looks out of the basket’s plastic mesh and into the living room. He sees nothing. The dining room. Nothing. 15934_Sullivan_fpref_3p.r.qxp 1/2/08 10:04 AM Page xiv xiv Preface Snuggles is easing over the backside of the basket when the second shot takes his head off at the neck.

  • Configuring a Scatological Gaze in Trash Filmmaking Zoe Gross
    Excremental Ecstasy, Divine Defecation and Revolting Reception: Configuring a Scatological Gaze in Trash Filmmaking Zoe Gross Scatology, for all the sordid formidability the term evokes, is not an es- pecially novel or unusual theme, stylistic technique or descriptor in film or filmic reception. Shit happens – to emphasise both the banality and perva- siveness of the cliché itself – on multiple levels of textuality, manifesting it- self in both the content and aesthetic of cinematic texts, and the ways we respond to them. We often refer to “shit films,” using an excremental vo- cabulary redolent of detritus, malaise and uncleanliness to denote their otherness and “badness”. That is, films of questionable taste, aesthetics, or value, are frequently delineated and defined by the defecatory: we describe them as “trash”, “crap”, “filth”, “sewerage”, “shithouse”. When considering cinematic purviews such as the b-film, exploitation, and shock or trash filmmaking, whose narratives are so often played out on the site of the gro- tesque body, a screenscape spectacularly splattered with bodily excess and waste is de rigeur. Here, the scatological is both often on blatant dis- play – shit is ejected, consumed, smeared, slung – and underpining or tinc- turing form and style, imbuing the text with a “shitty” aesthetic. In these kinds of films – which, as their various appellations tend to suggest, are de- fined themselves by their association with marginality, excess and trash, the underground, and the illicit – the abject body and its excretia not only act as a dominant visual landscape, but provide a kind of somatic, faecal COLLOQUY text theory critique 18 (2009).

    Bob Pittman WORKING THE MATH AND THE MAGIC rom his days of programming the nation’s #1 radio station in his early 20s to reinventing the nation’s #1 broadcasting company into today’s premier media company, Bob Pittman has had a spectacular career,” says Republic chieftain Monte Lipman. “Bob’s motivation and fearless- ness to always sail into uncharted waters is unprecedented.” Monte makes a valid point—and that includes piloting his jet to the Burning Man festival every year. From his wunderkind days holding court at the NBC commissary to his current reign atop iHeartMedia, the Mississippi native has always been zooming forward. Name a game-changing media moment during the last 35 years, and chances are Bob Pittman’s fingerprints were all over it. After getting his start in radio, he moved to television as a founder of MTV, which became the first profitable cable network as well as reenergizing the record business. Pittman was on hand when Warner Bros. merged with Time Inc., and after serving as CEO of Six Flags and Century 21, he became COO of AOL and held the same post following the 2000 mega- Fmerger that created AOL Tim Warner.

It mattered nothing to her that the gentleman was asking for Dr. Martineau as if he was asking for something with an unpleasant taste. Almost imperceptibly she relieved him of his umbrella and juggled his hat and coat on to a massive mahogany stand. "What name, Sir?" she asked, holding open the door of the consulting room. "Hardy," said the gentleman, and then yielding it reluctantly with its distasteful three-year-old honour, "Sir Richmond Hardy." The door closed softly behind him and he found himself in undivided possession of the large indifferent apartment in which the nervous and mental troubles of the outer world eddied for a time on their way to the distinguished specialist. A bowl of daffodils, a handsome bookcase containing bound Victorian magazines and antiquated medical works, some paintings of Scotch scenery, three big armchairs, a buhl clock, and a bronze Dancing Faun, by their want of any collective idea enhanced rather than mitigated the promiscuous disregard of the room.
