    Congratulations!

    Always loved the eerie effect of that giant turntable set 12 minutes in.

    Hopefully he walked (well, swam...) back from that bloated director's cut ending?

    Thanks papa! I suggest we turn this into a yearly pictures-only holiday.

    Curious to revisit this. That Bola track ("I wish I was born a dog in America") haunted me for years.

    Same here. I get "somebody bought something they found while browsing your collection" messages once in a while, so I'd guess it works?

    Mike & Rich absolutely sounds like losing a drinking game.

    I bought Rushup Edge when it came out, and my new, wrapped copy was missing one of the three discs. I was like "ah, I don't want to bother anyone, I'll buy another one sometime in the future".

    MBM

    aencre replied to LooseLink's topic in General Banter

    The first use of that effect that I know were Emmanuel Carrier's short "Temps mort" installations in Lyon in 1995. Here's a potato version: I guess Michel Gondry saw those too, because later that year he does «Temthe video for Like a Rolling Stone, in which he adds morphing between the different still images : He uses it again in 1997 for a (rather silly) Smirnoff ad, with a bullet stopped in mid-air: Principal photography on the Matrix started in 1998; once it came out in spring 1999 everyone and their mother did rip-off and parodies. The connection between that film and MBM I'm most curious about is the fact that Dangers said he was supposed to do the whole soundtrack... My favorite use of that Temps mort / bullet time method remains Chris Cunningham's advert for Orange, in which he uses long exposures to fantastic effect :

    There sadly isn't much more to this little story (or maybe I've forgotten the saltier bits since): Tim Hecker (the human) essentially sent a cease-and-desist to the owner of Tim Hecker (the cat) to stop using his name. Tim Hecker (the cat) was pretty chill about it. I don't believe this would've been an issue if the cat was named Florian Hecker.

    Is this the right thread to tell you about the time Tim Hecker sent a mean email to a friend who had named his cat Tim Hecker?

    Thanks for the heads up! I had totally missed that previous De Leon LP, and I'm a sucker for those galeman tinkerings. (Paging @species8472 re: Topdown-adjacent stuff.)
