...your strange, definitely wicked vintage environmental video today...Meet the Bluffs 2010....

California has a very big problem with cliffs falling into the sea - more storms from global warming,  bigger waves and rough seas, changing weather patterns, more rain, more earthquakes. The cliffs fall taking houses and apartments with them - and yet, the California realtors continue to rent the buildings as Army corps of engineers continue to drop big rocks in the sea to block the sea. 

Meet Mr. and Mrs. Bluff. Yes, he does look like that xmas party coke dealer and she looks like the art director that fired you, But we'll just address them as the Bluffs, the name of the building where they want to rent a piece of the good life on the cliffs with ocean view. Just up the beach we see an evacuated building... How can this be? Don't the Bluff's realize?

The realtor did not mention their new apartment might be on the beach come winter. Yes. Advertising and truth have a way of - parting ways in California.

Filmed, Pacifica, California 2010. Music Blaine Reininger, Jeff Crouch.

day turns black

big winds blow

bad tides running

in an evil night

when the earth

falls in the sea.

darkness sets me free 

in dreams gone mad

when the earth covers me

free of hatred, free of fear

free of love, free of you my dear

when the earth covers me

when the earth falls in the sea.

LOUD SHOT, ONE PAIR OF FOOTSTEPS

today's strange, maybe wicked, film...La Reina Loba...

La Reina Loba in Spanish...but it is in English here... https://youtu.be/kZBeHsFK37Y ...meet a post-Roman dark ages Iberian 'witch' queen taking on empires... 

 

Making this film, I wanted to ‘rewild’ Reina Loba, to set her free from centuries of propaganda. Reina Loba, Wolf Queen of Galicia, Queen Lupa, c.45 AD, ruled an important territory in the Iberian Peninsula. The Romans, Visigoths, her neighbours, and Church all wanted to possess her lands. In researching her story, I came to believe Reina Loba resisted the Christian Empire. She understood it was a predatory system of empire capitalism that benefited the elite with capital. Queen Lupa represented the end of the barter and trade system. A French monk recorded Reina Loba’s story in Codex Calixtinus for Pope Calixtus in 1138. The book was a travel guide, advice for pilgrims following the Way of Saint James, a patron saint in the fight against Islam in Iberia. In the codex the Catholic Church slandered Lupa and women of Galicia, calling them ‘witches,’ ‘pagan,’ and forbid their ‘old ways of healing, knowledge, customs.’ It is difficult to tell which is more fantastic, the church miracle tales of James, or the stories of Queen Lupa. Reina Loba examines the relationship between historical record, myth, and institutional narrative. Tamara Pereira and Sayuri. Jeff Crouch music.

Al hacer esta película, quería “resalvajar” a Reina Loba, liberarla de siglos de propaganda. Reina Loba, Reina Loba de Galicia, Reina Lupa, c.45 d.C., gobernó un territorio importante en la Península Ibérica. Los romanos, los visigodos, sus vecinos y la Iglesia querían poseer sus tierras. Al investigar su historia, llegué a creer que Reina Loba resistió al Imperio cristiano. Ella entendió que era un sistema depredador de capitalismo imperial que beneficiaba a la élite con capital. La reina Lupa representó el fin del sistema de trueque y comercio. Un monje francés registró la historia de Reina Loba en el Códice Calixtino para el Papa Calixto en 1138. El libro era una guía de viaje, consejos para los peregrinos que seguían el Camino de Santiago, santo patrón en la lucha contra el Islam en Iberia. En el códice, la Iglesia católica calumnia a Lupa y a las mujeres de Galicia, llamándolas "brujas", "paganas" y prohibiendo sus "viejos métodos de curación, conocimiento y costumbres". Es difícil decir qué es más fantástico, el milagro de la iglesia. cuentos de James, o las historias de la reina Lupa. Reina Loba examina la relación entre registro histórico, mito y narrativa institucional. Tamara Pereira y Sayuri. Música de Jeff Crouch.

We have a problem in Northern California Coast...rain soaked cliffs fall into the sea taking houses, roads, chunks of golf courses, condominiums, and sometimes burying sunbathing beach goers dying beneath even small cliffs.

Danger Archive video today... Let Me Sleep In Your Crystal Kitchen 2011...

Steve Johnson sent me his dawn patrol videos on his drive up and down the San Francisco coast looking for waves. Most surfers who work are sleep deprived, especially surfing early in cold waters, a dangerous state. (I only had a few hours sleep yesterday and it was an expensive locksmith visit when I left my keys behind.) So I called this one Let Me Sleep In Your Crystal Kitchen because the sky was crystal clear, no winds, and the sky reflects the state of the waves, a sort of cosmic kitchen. So Steve sent me the beautiful sky...actually the waves were inconsequential.
