20,000 DAYS ON EARTH (2014) dir. Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard

[pisquareseven]

n (40M) meets s (31F)

"When she came walking in, [I saw] all the things I'd obsessed over for all the years. Pictures of movie stars — Jenny Agutter in the billabong, Anita Ekberg in the fountain, Ali MacGraw in her black tights, images from the TV when I was a kid, Barbara Eden and Elizabeth Montgomery and Abigail, Miss World competitions, Marilyn Monroe and Jennifer Jones and Bo Derek and Angie Dickinson as Police Woman, Maria Falconetti and Suzi Quatro, Bolshoi ballerinas and Russian gymnasts, Wonder Woman and Barbarella and supermodels and Page 3 girls, all the endless, impossible fantasies, the young girls at the Wangaratta pool lying on the hot concrete, Courbet's Origin Of The World, Bataille's bowl of milk, Jean Simmons' nose ring,

all the stuff I had heard and seen and read.

Advertising and TV commercials, billboards and fashion spreads and Playmate of the Month, Caroline Jones dying in Elvis's arms, Jackie O in mourning, Tinker Bell trapped in the drawer.

All the continuing, never-ending drip-feed of erotic data came together at that moment,

in one great big crash bang and I was lost to her and that was that."

[jp-hunsecker]

In 20,000 Days On Earth, Cave espoused a songwriting philosophy that went from the dyonisian to the apollonian — from chaos and anarchy to an aesthetically pleasing, though by no means conventional, organized structure. In This Much I Know to Be True, this creative process goes beyond a mere artistic method and becomes an encompassing worldview in its own right.

Okay so answering some of Mod Captain's questions, the AU is still kinda unfinished so feel free to add on stuff!

A. They both can still talk, Boom just has the gnarp gnorp accent and Shuri can't pronounce the letter R

B. Okay so first off, the guild uses codenames for their hunters for the sake of not letting the cops get their information. Rocket's a bounty hunter but is also the one getting hunted by the same time, does things in his father's gear workshop that he inherited(Zuka got found by Blackrock and, unfortunately, executed). Rocket feels a little guilty for not cleaning and paying much respect to the place due to how busy he gets. Goes via Buster. Sword is an ex government assassin(hired by Lost Temple a few years back, but his contract got cut after he refused to join the Church for Venomshank's sake) who went into bounty hunting cause that's the closest thing to his previous job so he didn't have to adapt that much, goes by Sci-fi. Slingshot went into it for funsies and the chance to get intel on where Shuriken and Boombox have gone, he specifically applied for the spying on blackrock position for the sake of getting any lab reports, goes by Curse or Cat. Skateboard became a bounty hunter when his street gang needed some money, specifically when a younger member needed surgery after getting experimented on and tossed back out into the streets and it was the quickest way to make some cash, visits his gang to this day(they're all like family to him). Skate goes by Hover in the guild.

C. Hyperlaser is a mercenary but also currently hunterd by the Blackrock government for refusing orders(Order 66 means kill all jedi and Katana in this au is well, a Jedi). The two drinking buddies now are looking for someplace to settle. Somewhere really far away from Blackrock and Lost Temple.

D. Correction I'm sorry I forgot to mention that: Valk is a registrar, he handles signing up new mercenaries and explaining missions. Dom is an accountant, handling the money and paperwork

E. Blackrock has a lot of extremely cold areas so all their bases outside of the home planet are underground(referencing Medkit's "I didn't see the sun" line from his birthday QNA), like the rebel base on Hoth in The Empire strikes back. They also have a lot of people escaping so the governemnt is switching their army to biografts, so they're kind of a mix of the Empire and the Separatists. Lost Temple has a lot of gold mines and is basically a desert, they have a lot of rebel groups in the vast deserts(look up Tatooine and you'll get the idea of how it looks) and a lot of transportation is via trains. Playground has occupied a lot of planets with lower gravity and gas planets, so their cities are floating in the sky and a lot of the time you could just look at the space between two sidewalks and it's a 20000 kilometer drop to the surface, their big cities are multi-layered and built like a mini Coruscant. Thieve's Den has occupied other planets the most recently so they only took a ton of moons, the landspaces are vast and very different because they literally took whatever was left all across the solar system, but they have a unique place that is a moon in an asteroid ring between Playground and Blackrock planets which has a little lower than Earth gravity and the climate of a chilly mountainous area in southeast asia. Sorry if this paragraph was worded weirdly I'm not the best with landscapes.

Also some extras: Coil was also a crystal experiment victim, that's how he got the tubes on his arms. He goined the bounty hunting guild as it was the only job he could take without much of a problem besides minimum wage and goes by Hellhound, he was a professional boxer before the experiments, that's how he cane up with his codename. Steampunk owns a workshop, he's not a bounty hunter but a lot of not-so-law-abiding people slip in for weapon and ship repairs. He doesn't snitch on them because who would want to be on the bad side of a person who kills other people for s living? Scythe is a bounty hunter for the Church, all of her profit goes there. She is actually a very high-ranking merc there, goes by Rifle. Banhammer is still a government official but he has a lot more pain in the ass now with how big the bounty hunting guild is getting. Broker applied as an accountant for the guild but only got the position of janitor(whow ould trust this guy with papers). Medkit is a simple doctor, he goes by the law but still helps out criminals if they pay him enough, also part of the True Eye. Traffic is a humble merchant, he travels the galaxy on a very old and rusty starfighter and sells people stuff, he's actually also a weapon seller, a lot of bounty hunters and collectors get their hands on unique weapons from him.

I hope that answered the questions you may have had!

- Star wars anon

well that's a LOT..........

ok steampunk having a workshop fits for the guy (cause he isn't the best boxer for reference see coil's trailer)

oof zuka's dead

dang traffic seams really nice in this AU, also as a name for his ship how about "the rust bucket"

*to BLACKROCK* NO SOLDIERS ?

also the flipside thing was a joke cause i think it's funny that after kinda just trying attempting to force make my friends watch hunter: the parenting, witch also has a accountant character who is also a vampire wizard who i was referencing please watch it i beg of thee

also FINALY hyper rebelling from BLACKROCK

uhhhh if i have more i will reblog

It feels kind of special to use a tool made of bone in this day and age.

Like literally tens of thousands of years ago, my ancestors, who were probably not even humans by that point, used tools much like this one.

20000 years of human civilization later, we got a research lab in earth's orbit, and we trapped lighting in a bottle... yet still nothing beats bone when you want a tool to fold paper.

starting to think you guys don't care about the lesser of two evils or whatever vote blue always people have been trying to say. starting to think you guys genuinely will believe whatever the Democratic party says if you think it's going to buy you another day on this earth. are you even watching what is happening in America right now. are you even watching what is happening across the world. i am genuinely so fucking sick and tired of you at least pretend like you care. just PRETEND. like you care about people outside of yourself. pretend like you care more about what is materially happening to people overseas than what you think might possibly happen in the future if you get a republican in. white boy 20000 is going to be fine. the people of Palestine won't and if you really think Kamala Harris' words are the best it's going to get in terms of foreign policy you lack every drop of political imagination that will lead to liberation. you cannot envision a better world than this. you can't even muster up the energy to act like you want to demand for something better, you're saying shut up don't complain this is enough otherwise you're giving the vote to Trump. any revolutionary voting blue in november are not going to sleep at night for weeks after, it will be the most miserable decision of their life and they will spend every breath acting after. so i'm glad to see you guys hopping and cheering and excited for Kamala Harris even as she calls protestors for Palestine "pro Hamas". are half the people on this site only pretending to care about political dissent. you can vote for Kamala, go ahead, but actually make your vote have leverage. actually put power behind your words. or is that too scary. are you too scared. do you think you're more scared than a Palestinian right now? as Kamala labels the people fighting for their freedom in the belly of the beast terrorists? i hope God gives you the mercy you refuse to give to others. i hope, genuinely, that you act in some way.

actually taking out the disclaimer .

That's one of the things that makes the story so great, and something of a pattern I've noticed in many of Jules Verne's stories.

There will be a guy who's like, "YEAH BABY, WE'RE GOING ON AN ADVENTURE!" (In this case Professor Aronnax)

A guy who's like: "Sure, sounds fun. I'll tag along." (In this case Conseil)

And a guy they're forcibly dragging along, kicking his feet and screaming: "You people are insane!" (In this case Ned)

Think Professor Lidenbrock, Hans and Axel in "Journey to the Centre of the Earth," or to an extent, Phileas, Aouda and Passepartout in "Around the World in 80 Days."

I can think of another iconic SciFi trio which exemplifies this same dynamic:

One thing I’ve really been thinking about is how horrific 20,000 Leagues is from Ned’s perspective. He’s a captive in the alien world he was once king of and his captor is a narcissistic genius with a death wish?!?!

finally started reading Rational Fears (American horror in the 1950s). I want to take it slow to learn as much as I can, but I really enjoy it so far. the main barrier to me understanding it is that a lot in the beginning is responding to other critics and scholars, and even though they're quoted and appear not to be misrepresented that's still a barrier -I also haven't seen much of these films (so far, only The Blob), but I enjoy reading about things I haven't seen so that's not too bad. the thesis(es?) seem to be that analysis of these films is more based on pre-held beliefs or an insistence on molding them into a specific picture - science / a science-military coop is a savior, the ordinary citizen is crazy, the nature-out-of-control films are representative of Unrational people (women), invasions are the soviets - and not analyzing a film by itself or as a reaction or with any thoughts really. as I said earlier, I can only judge that by the excerpts, though it certainly seems true. the first chapter is examining how these films (via the thing from another world & the day the earth stood still) portray scientific rationality - coldly, needing to be tempered with unrationality to save the group. the first part of the second chapter is also examining this with the invasion narratives - beast from 20000 fathoms, war of the worlds, them!, the blob. I'm kind of disappointed Jankovich didn't mention how the only person to believe the teenagers in the blob is the doctor, because it seems like a noteworthy exception where the cold characters that block the narrative and enforce conformity* aren't related to science at all (being the cops and the parents). from how I remember, he's right on the money about war of the worlds portraying that small town feeling as when humans are compassionate and resilient. I like the analysis of the "advanced" aliens being laid low by germs - he says this is a common event with aliens, being rational beings laid low by ordinary citizens (unless you're Klaatu, in which you only talk to scientists and say that humans have to be objective or die. I guess. I'll have to watch that). I'll have to see if this is true based on later on in the book.

am I learning ???

The Henferian Timeline

This post will explain how alternate universes work and how Henferia exists in a different timeline. For reference I will be using current Earth's way of measuring time.

The henferian timeline started to split by around 20000 years BCE ago. This means everything before this time was the same as our current Earth. The split started to happen when women from a village around Basque country noticed a certain pattern in men. They noticed they could get anything they wanted from them by seducing them. At first it didn't seem like those women could go so far, but as this practice continued and started to spread, they started to demand more. They wanted to have the same power men had over the village, and they'd continue until they reached this point. This event would turn reality into another timeline, because not only they managed to conquer the power, but managed to spread it to other villages as well. Men no longer had any sort of control over their villages, and with this lots of wars didn't happen, therefore many languages ended up being preserved, unlike current Earth where war and invasion caused the destruction of many cultures (including the descendants of what would be Henferia in our current timeline). The women also got rid of farms and animal hunting, and this is why henferians are still vegan to this day. Eating meat is considered primitive and barbaric. This is when women noticed there was something wrong with having men in charge of things. Everything in the henferian timeline started being developed much earlier than the current Earth timeline. Writing, technology, infrastructure, engineering...

But how does it work?

Well... the concept here is basically the same concept used in reality shifting. When individuals contemplate choices they can go into any possible direction. What we see from the perspective of current Earth is just one reality, one timeline. This however doesn't mean there aren't other timelines out there, they're just invisible to our senses because we are deeply integrated into just one. Let's suppose an individual can choose between A, B and C for example. From our perspective, if the individual chooses B, then they chose B and this is the reality we will perceive here. But according to this theory there are also realities where they chose A and C, we just can't see them because we are not a part of them. The same thing applies to the henferian timeline, those choices made before by the village women might have occured, but had no effect, or might not even have occured, therefore our reality has been developed over this premise. One simple choice, while might not seem significant, can actually change the whole scheme of how things work in the world.

I added a potential link, because that’s really cool.

(This link includes: days on earth, 7777 day birthday, and 15000, 20000, 25000, and 30000 day birthdays.) 💛 🌍 🌎 🌏

oh i don't know what young adult needs to hear this but you should google what day your 10,000th day will be & set a reminder in your calendar. it happens somewhere in your 27th year. i was really bummed when i googled my own and found out i had missed it by like 2 months.

(if you missed yours too, no worries, we both get another chance to celebrate 15,000 at 41. Unfortunately you will be 54 years old before you are 20,000 days old, at which point we will have overthrown the concept of linear time anyway)

life is very cute, and you have struggled a very long time to be here, and i love you. sometimes i think we need to invent our reasons for celebration. maybe today you are 10,345 days old. or 12,345. or 8,435. maybe u should just celebrate because it is a weekday, and those are hard days. i love u , light a candle and blow it out. i'm proud of you for staying.

20000 días de posibilidades infinitas

x Chan Tejedor - originalmente publicado en Revista Invisibles Dos caras de la misma moneda, dos rockumentales que en realidad funcionan como ensayos sobre la memoria: 20000 Days on Earth y The Possibilities are endless. Desde la abundancia de recuerdos hasta la imposibilidad verbal de narrar, ambos exceden lo meramente documental, son imágenes-poesía, crean mundo como cualquier expresión artística debería hacer y reflexionan no sólo sobre la niñez, el amor, la capacidad creativa y el trabajo cotidiano sino también sobre la memoria.

Este año que termina no vi tantas películas, o tantas como las deseadas o la cantidad que estoy acostumbrada a ver. Vi apenas, al día de la fecha, unas 165 películas, la mayoría decepcionantes, pocos estrenos interesantes y aquellas que considero obras maestras fueron en realidad, clásicos que volví a ver. Pero recordaré el 2015 como el año en que, creo, vi la mayor cantidad de documentales de rock y música. Desde Cobain: Montage of Heck hasta The Wrecking Crew, pasando por Mr Blue Sky: The Story of Jeff Lynne & ELO, Filmage: The Story of Descendents/All, los documentales que vimos casi todos gracias a la comodidad de Netflix: Keith Richards. Under the influence y What Happened, Miss Simone? y varios más.

De todos ellos, destaco dos que son en realidad del año pasado (2014), producidos ambos por Pulse Films y Film4 Productions y con el apoyo del British Film Institute. Se tratan de 20,000 Days on Earth de Iain Forsyth y Jane Pollard, el docuficción sobre el día número 20000 en la vida de Nick Cave; y The Possibilities are endless de James Hall y Edward Lovelace, un ensayo artístico sobre cómo Edwyn Collins tuvo que reconstruir sus recuerdos, sus palabras, su identidad y hasta el habla, luego de un derrame sufrido en el 2005, que lo dejó en coma profundo y del que al despertar sólo decía Grace Maxwell (el nombre de su mujer, quien además es su manager) y The Possibilities Are Endless. Ambos exceden lo meramente documental, son imágenes-poesía, crean mundo como cualquier expresión artística debería hacer y reflexionan no sólo sobre la niñez, el amor, la capacidad creativa y el trabajo cotidiano sino sobre la memoria y -como ha definido Borges a los clásicos- sobre las posibilidades inherentes de hacer, en este caso, un documental. Son por lo tanto, me atrevo a decir, futuros clásicos. Obras maestras e infaltables en la videoteca de cualquier fanático, no sólo de la música, sino del cine.

-

En el afán de terminar de redondear un escrito comparado entre los dos films, hice el trabajo de ver las películas en synchro y me he encontrado varias sorpresas agradables. Prometo un futuro post con las casi 200 imágenes que capturé de las películas proyectadas al mismo tiempo, post al que lamentablemente le faltará el audio.

Las dos películas abren con el siguiente plano:

La televisación del recuerdo, Edwyn Collins en Late Night con Conan O’Brien, cantando su hitazo “A Girl like you”, y un wall de televisores que ametrallan en tan sólo unos segundos, los 20000 días en la Tierra vividos por Nick Cave. Queda claro desde el principio que la idea en ambos es hacer un skip al tipo de documental más obvio, brindando en menos de dos minutos iniciales (mucho menos que los 10 minutos que necesitaba Hitchcock), un zip de imágenes con la consigna tácita de “si quieren material de archivo, ya saben donde ir a buscarlo, porque lo que van a ver es algo completamente diferente” y lo es. Los directores de cada película están muy cercanos a sus objetos de estudio. Iain Forsyth y Jane Pollard son amigos cercanos de Cave y vienen trabajando con él desde hace aproximadamente 7 años, comenzaron haciendo un trabajo de método de imágenes al que inexorablemente, las palabras y el guión de Cave y Warren Ellis terminaron de dar forma a lo que sería un proyecto mucho más grande que el que se buscó originalmente. Por su parte, James Hall y Edward Lovelace eran fanáticos de Collins y Orange Juice, y también de Frederick Wiseman como referente de realizador documental. Enamorados de la historia por la que tuvo que atravesar Collins, le hicieron varias entrevistas de las que surgieron la composición de imágenes que traducirían el desafío de las posibilidades de contar la historia de una persona que prácticamente no puede hablar.

Contar a partir de un archivo respetuosamente guardado, con agentes del recuerdo que acceden a las fuentes con guantes de látex en el caso de Cave, un obsesivo que pudo atesorar su vida, sus palabras y sus verdades monstruosas en una especie de Biblioteca de Babel de los recuerdos; o contar desde el limbo, desde el vacío y con la gran ayuda de Grace, la guardiana oral de la historia de Collins. Dos caras de la misma moneda, dos rockumentales que en realidad eran ensayos sobre la memoria.

-"Qué es a lo que más le temes?” Le pregunta el analista de Cave en una sesión de terapia, y Cave contesta:

-“Hmm… Mi mayor miedo, supongo, es perder mi memoria. Me preocupa a veces que no vaya a ser capaz de seguir haciendo lo que hago y alcanzar un lugar con el que estoy satisfecho”

-”En qué sentido?”

-”Porque la memoria es lo que somos, creo que tu alma y tu razón de estar vivos está arraigada en la memoria. Quiero decir, creo que durante mucho tiempo he estado construyendo una especie de mundo a través de la escritura de canciones. Es una clase de mundo que se crea sobre la base de esos preciados recuerdos que definen nuestras vidas”

El mayor miedo de Cave es lo que le pasó a Collins en febrero del 2005 cuando sufrió dos hemorragias cerebrales que terminaron en una operación, período de coma y lenta recuperación de la memoria y el habla. Sufrió parálisis total del lado derecho, ya no puede tocar por sí solo la guitarra, aunque Grace lo ayuda a rasgar, tiene problemas para caminar, usa bastón y la afasia dificulta la pronunciación, hace que tartamudee y le conlleva severos problemas con los números y el pensamiento matemático. Collins también hace terapia, pero con un neurólogo, tuvo que aprender a escribir con la mano izquierda y recuperó sus dotes de ilustrador, tal cual había estudiado, a fuerza de dibujar aves, siguiendo la sugerencia de Grace, que lo notaba frustrado porque dibujaba repetidamente la figura de un hombre con parálisis, su propia figura. “Creo que mi recuperación real comenzó con mi primer dibujo de pájaros” dice Collins en su propia web.

Sin embargo, una solución al miedo de Cave, bien podría dársela Collins que siguió sacando discos y produciendo a otros artistas (el maravilloso disco Seven dials de su amigo íntimo Roddy Frame, ex Aztec Camera; por ejemplo) y que pareciera resumir, con la sencillez emocionante de sus letras que lo importante It's in your heart, Not in your mind, It's not in your mind.

A partir de la memoria se establece una idea de hogar “I’m Home again” canta Collins en el disco casi homónimo de 2007. Un verdadero punto de hogar fue volver a visitar el estudio West Health, fue la música y su ambiente el detonante necesario para un momento de recuperación acelerada en la terapia de Collins, simultáneamente en 20000 días en la Tierra, vemos a Warren Ellis con un coro de niños franceses grabando, también en estudios. En los estudios reviven las letras, las de Cave, rigurosamente escritas a máquina, las de Collins, con una caligrafía casi inicial. Hombre-Máquina y Hombre-Niño. La maquinaria de Cave para conservar esas letras que tanto hablan sobre la memoria y sobre el proceso disociado de creación. Las letras de sus canciones suponen de cierta manera, una verdad. La metáfora de la verdad dicha por Cave al final del documental, tan sólo la reflexión de esa metáfora, hace que 20000 días sobre la Tierra sea una película perfecta. Una metáfora de la verdad como monstruo que se asoma por la superficie del océano y deja ver su cresta, en un atisbo deja ver su cresta de verdad para luego sumergirse de nuevo en las profundidades, quizá para siempre. De las profundidades renace Collins, repitiendo apenas las palabras The possibilities are endless, las posibilidades son infinitas. El agua también termina siendo un contenedor y un conductor eterno de verdades. Qué hubiese dicho Bachelard con semejantes monstruos, no?

Y las verdades no funcionan por sí solas porque tienen centinelas y tienen asistentes infaltables: Las mujeres, sus grandes amores. Grace es básicamente la exteriorización del yo perdido de Collins “Puedo recordar a Grace, mi mujer, ella está haciendo que todo sea mejor. Ella es mi vida” dice Collins. Y con “es mi vida” descubrimos que es literalmente su vida ya que lo ayuda en absolutamente todo. En cambio Suzie, la mujer de Cave es una musa, apenas la podemos ver en el documental, durmiendo al principio de la jornada, soñando con algo que no podemos imaginar. Luego la volvemos a ver en una foto, proyectada mientras Cave la compara con Marilyn Monroe, Anita Ekberg y miles de símbolos sexuales más, en una secuencia imperdible, casi de lo mejor que tiene la película. Suzie es la madre de sus hijos mellizos, Arthur y Earl. A Arthur, quien murió en julio de este año en un episodio de alucinación por LSD cayendo desde un barranco, se lo ve comiendo pizzas abrazado al padre. Si para Cave lo más importante de su vida es la memoria y la memoria está hecha de letras que guardan cada momento y Suzie es la musa que inspira gran parte de esas letras, entonces también para Cave, Suzie es su vida, aunque quizá es una versión del amor más icónica y no tan iconoclasta como la de Collins.

20000 días en la Tierra y Las posibilidades son infinitas plantean la apertura de lenguajes poéticos, narran no necesariamente vidas, sino formas de vidas, las vidas de dos artistas únicos, irremplazables y eternos por el solo hecho de habernos regalado verdad. Y sólo las personas generosas pueden regalar verdades.

June 2- Free day (Disney Sea)

With the approaching typhoon, Disney Sea quickly felt like it was sinking underwater. The entire place flooded and my jeans are soaked. Luckily, the rain wasn’t too bad for the first hour or two and we were able to ride Tower of Terror, 20000 Leagues Under the Sea, Indiana Jones and Journey to the Center of the Earth. They all had such great animatronics and effects. Each ride had so much love and effort put into it. We went to the Ariel area and it was so beautifully designed. It was difficult to find lunch since the app did not provide accurate menus for the restaurants. This led to Jordan, Kai and I going to a restaurant that didn’t actually have any vegetarian options. However, we found another restaurant and I got pizza. The employees were so kind and complimented my Japanese when I told them thank you at the check out counter. She also made us adorable name tags that said it was our first time visiting. The rain was one of the worst I have ever seen, with our umbrella consistently turning inside out and breaking due to harsh winds. Rides were mostly all closed and we didn’t have tickets to see any of the shows. Regardless of this, I still had a really fun time with Jordan. It’s always great to be able to talk to him and pass the time in a long line. Jordan and I decided to take an Uber since the buses and trains were down due to the storm. The Uber was SO expensive but I was honestly grateful that we got back safely. We had 7/11 yet again for dinner, I really think we need to limit our rice ball intake at this point.
