my life as a artist

my blog smells

Tuesday 14th July 2009 11:25 PM

Les Miserable writes in the comment box. 'Anyone attracted by the smell of Rory's blog should watch 'Home' on You Tube. Beautiful images of a dying planet. Funny, the validation word is 'alive''

First of all Les, thank you for implying that I create beautiful images of a dying planet, although I must say that personally, in my mind, from where I'm sat, rorycentrically speaking, I don't believe the planet's dying. I think it's suffering labour pains and I think we need to be busy knitting the baby a new bonnet. The validation word knows.

As regards this film 'Home', I'm sorry to say that I have six-foot-deep grave reservations about it. I don't like to disagree with you Les, because I've met you many times in non-cyber life, and am keenly aware of your manly, furzed forearms of polished granite, but to be quite Les with you, frank, I felt sick after the first few minutes.

The opening sequence of the feature features a featureless black void of empty space into which there is a dawning of white words. '88,000 employees of PPR group' they says boldly. These letters then boldly go and explode into 88,000 star-sperms which fertilise and vivify the aching emptiness of space, and lo, from the fathomless, fatherless mother and motherless father of all nothingness, life is born! This new universe then starts pulsating with labelled planet-gods, and as they orbit into view it's possible to read their names; Yves St Laurant, Alexander McQueen, Stella MacCartney, Puma and Gucci.

Except for Stella's early consumption of her mum's vegetarian sausages, I don't associate any of these people with sound ecological practice. The images in the film were, predictably, very stylish and well cut, but so much so that the whole thing felt a bit creepy. In amongst all those super-high-definition swelling mounds and plunging clefts, (never mind the glistening, moist hollows and steaming flanks), I felt as though I was watching my first eco-porn movie, with Earth playing the part of Busty La Rue and Mankind in the role of Dirk Diggler.

These 'slick, mental pick-pockets' are so well versed in the mechanics of persuasion that they're able to sell a nasty little handbag for the same price as a small saloon car, and I'd take everything they say with a pinch of salt, some holy water and a cleansing ritual.

Well Les, I hope this time-saving, sometimes harsh, judgemental response won't put you off posting further comments in the future, as I value you as a loyal, and often astute contributor. If some sort of rift has been created, and it gets extended into the non-cyber world, and you never want to see me again, can I keep that really nice little Stanley saw-blade that you lent me when I re-located that plug-socket?

This is all very well and I too don't give a damn about the saw blade. what I do care about is that I have no spent 8 minutes flipping between your posts of 14 July and 20 July, and slowly realising they are exactly the same. Are you trying to be clever with us then? Pretentious tree hugging muesli gummer.

You can shove that saw blade up where the sun doesn't shine, hippy! The validation word is 'ash' which is what your caravan will be when I (eventually) come round.
Love, Les
