last night horsemouth watched a little of this above (from whence the quote above but repunctuated in a horsemouth style). toby amies (the director) also did a number of interesting other projects - a radio 4 documentary on the urge to archive ourselves, a documentary on rare records.
it's not that horsemouth is a mad keen king crimson fan but he does respect focus, determination and sheer bloody minded modernism. discipline was a big one with him. mark kermode discovered he was good at lip-syncing because a friend did a fan video of thela hun gingeet.from discipline (sadly not shown).
today a zoom meeting. tuesday (next week) a meeting of the communal endeavour. today it has clouded over. the recycling men have been (hail the bin men). horsemouth is up half an hour earlier than usual - he will try to use this to get in some extra reading on the topics under discussion.
of course practically anything (if examined) will yield insights into the human condition - except a lecture on the human condition (or a film directly on it). writing something that can yield insights into the human condition is really quite a task.
horsemouth (vain old mule that he is) is still enjoying the photos of himself playing max's book launch. here he is getting all expressive while playing satan your kingdom must come down. (photo once again by enza but cropped and filtered by horsemouth).
horsemouth should take the opportunity provided by having played a gig to play more gigs. he's rapidly coming to the conclusion that instead of playing audience participation numbers he should have played some instrumentals instead (but that's not how he felt it in the moment). last night he had a re-listen to the demo tracks up on soundcloud for the next musicians of bremen/ horsemouthfolk outing and (surprise surprise) they sound fairly decent. it's a year since horsemouth and howard recorded these - it would be good to get back up on the horse (as it were).
