...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.

...and by the way, wicked post...Dogs of War with Jeff Crouch &other things....

 













...today's wicked film...Eat the Night...



 A pilot and guard on contract job extinguishing humans.

PILOT man   ...after titan6 this dirtball's dead, but hey, I'm glad we teamed up... Where'd you get that arm?


GUARD woman     ...Dorado...


P.   Whoa!


G.  Dorado's the best... next time I want the head. ...nice ride you got here...


P.   What's the id on this job?


G.   ... block 6 target human, full breed, unaltered, name's Wolf...


P.   ...real bank for unaltereds... 


G.  ...everyone wants one...  but who'd want to stay un...


P.   ... hey, I got a idea... forget extinguishing the human, let's go indie on the mark, eat the night, take it in. We're just

        contract, no one checks default ops...


G.   I like the way you think... maybe we hit Dorado for matching wiring later... ...ever take a human?


P.    no, everything else...  block 6! tracking target... 


G.   I want to exit and take it with you...


P.   ...someone's gotta stay shipside... ..alright, alright, grab the MO before we lock base... no backup, let's make this 

         fast, after 3 time quads we're bait, who knows how many more are out here...


G.  ...I heard stories...


P.   ...mostly going to be stories - very few humans caught alive...


       

CLOSING SOUNDS, PAIR OF WALKING SOUNDS 



P.    look! ...got it in my reds! see it? 


G.    what's it doing? 


P.     who cares?


G.   ...is that hair on it?


P.    ...dirtball human's growing... ears? A tail?


G.    ...it's as if, like -  I can feel like it's eyes all over me!  It's body is so...  that's why everyone wants one you want  to

        just touch it... why is it getting down on the ground? 


P.     wow!  it just ran away fast...


G.    now what?  


P.     I don't know, let me see the MO.... hey, it says 'do not exit ship to track human,'  let's go back... 



WALKING SOUNDS



P.    is that the human in the ship?


G.    ...and you're out here...


P.     what's that mean?


G.    ...eat the night...
