"DON'T STOP NOW, COME ON,
ANOTHER DROP NOW, COME ON."
PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on the late, great Laurie McAllister, Joan Jett, and Lita Ford of all-female hard rock band THE RUNAWAYS, performing SLADE's "Mama Weer All Crazee Now" for a 1978 music video.
"I don't want to drink my whiskey like you do,
I don't need to spend my money but still do,
Don't stop now, come on,
Another drop now, come on,
I wanna lot now, so come on,
That's right, that's right,
[CHORUS, 3x]
I said mama but weer all crazee now."
-- "Mama Weer All Crazee Now" (1978) by THE RUNAWAYS (originally by SLADE)
Rock in Peace, Sandy West (1959-2006) and Laurie McAllister (1958-2011), more legends lost.
In Sean's article, "Projection: Vanishing Becoming", he talks about lighting, vanishing points, and terms such as digital which all relate to video making. What I most found interesting was the examples provided in this article such a Figure 20.3 that was called "Nascent" by Gina Czarnecki. When viewing the piece, you can see blurs of figures in the center and creates a frame on top of the black background. Even though you can't tell who specifically these people are, it's understandable they're odd figures. This piece gives an example of vanishing.
Lea Collet's article "Introduction to Video Art", was interesting to read about and see video art pieces. The style these artists have in video art is amazing with music videos, themes, placement, and especially color. For example, June Paik made a video art piece called Zen for Film. They placed TVs with an error filter on the screen and having tons of plants crowd over these tv's which create like a dreamcore theory.
