in the night garden

the bbc program that my daughter gets glued to like no other, in the night garden, claims to explore the space/place/time between sleeping and waking, as a subject for a kids show which is like a cross between japanese abstract tv and peter jacksonian depth-perception puppetry, like in braindead, but also with blue/green screen editing

which is all really quite beautiful

abstract things have a great capacity for beauty.

since catching it on, i believe kieren from fourtet's *exceptional* rage programming on rage

Four Tet Guest Programs Rage: Saturday, 3 October

i've been thinking a lot lately about the promo, or film that was made to go with sigur ros's track glosoli

and how beautiful it is

the word glosoli, according to wikipedia, meaning... something about sunshine

directly from wikipedia: In combination "glósóli" can be understood as a childish way of saying "glowing sun".

the promo film itself was made by an icelandic filmmaking team composed principally of Arni & Kinski




and that q-tip track was excellent too


Q-TIP Breathe And Stop (BMG)

of which there are a number of remixes, like this one



anyway, that's a nice juxtaposition to occupy ten minutes of a day in the life

regards
