...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.
