i've done a whole psychogeography type project on the london road fire station actually. they had an open day where they let all the plebs in, to look at the vision statements and moodboards. incredible building.

@sufi what are the big marvel films in your household? Having all those kids running round you must have watched every single one by now

 

[sufi]

nope
not even black panther

 

[Corpsey]

Forces them to watch Stalker.

 

[luka]

Well you and the kids are in for a treat!

 

[Corpsey]

I knew he'd have an opinion.

 

[sufi]

they are weird those films, in terms of vapid plot and colourful manic idiocy they are perfect for kids, but they are also full of degenerate violence and neo imperialism which mean that they don't come on telly til after bedtime

 

[luka]

What's his opinion? I can't watch it I'm glued to iron man I can't take my eyes off it

 

[Corpsey]

the official sshtoryline ish
capitalishm and the wesht

 

[Corpsey]

shuperheroesh have to come in

[luka]

Not much of an opinion.

 

[Corpsey]

I can't really listen to him salivating for more than a few minutes,

 

[craner]

I'm really into that Wonder Woman.

 

[luka]

That's DC but I enjoyed it too.

 

[craner]

I haven't seen it but I like her.

The hermeneutic synthesis regarding the MCU consists of letting yourself be childishly, naively, vulnerably manipulated by the spectacle, then distancing yourself from it, inspecting the experience.

The former without the latter is blind, the latter without the former is insubstantial.

Got that craner?
