essentially it was this pitch black audio visual composition that was like 40 minutes of loud droning sound and a video through like a wormhole
it was meant to induce a shamanic state of mind

  1. i love everything in this post especially: (but not only)
    engman’s louboutin blackmetal otk boots (not enough people wearing these, ever)
    you talking about megafauna’s and giant animals (which is frightening to think could actually be outside)
    & BLAND!!!

  2. It’s telling how, in the Frieze tent shot of your pals chowing down like dutiful clacks, Patrick’s and Matthew’s plates are barely covered with food while the girls’ have mounds and heaps.
