remember not liking the time travel plot and not liking the edgelord direction of the post apocalypse thing but dont remember much more. also something something wildstyle something

maybe it’s just a personal thing then because i LOVE time travel plots ^_^ especially when it’s your future/alternate self just fucking being evil for no reason . it’s great really. i think the wyldstyle thing was rather compelling because it lead to a rly sweet moment of emmet accepting her true self even tho for a moment it seems like he’s going to reject her for secretly being Not Emo. it fits the themes of the entire movie of trusting other people and opening up to them!!! and i like that she still stays cool even after being de-emofied. Girl knows how to slay

something something i wanna see natsume wonderhoy something something how i dont think im gonna give akira any ~magic~ or even sensitivity to supernatural stuff in postmhyk settings (i do like the idea of faint magic being On them due to those bonds however but thats mostly a For Myself thing anyway), BUT...akira is a lot more...hopeful(/accepting/etc) toward magic existing after everyone theyve met. guy whos reactions goes from "?!?!?!?!" to "magic...?" even when its clearly Not magic. "almost like magic" words said with such honesty it sounds childish but there's a touch of longing in there. if that doesnt make sense just know it does for my selfindulgence. tldr i think natsume & akira would be funny

Edgelands, peripherique, periphery. It’s all the same thing. This video and heavy duty synthpop track celebrates this … being stuck between a highway and a railway while a numbers stations broadcasts endlessly

Dartford Creek Barrier, London, October 2018.

[dry-valleys]

Slight return to Staffordshire University nature reserve (please see here for a fuller account, from my last visit in May 2023 when (3) was taken.

Here I saw history in the making; apart from the transformation since (6) was taken before the SUNRISE project overhauled the campus for the better in 2020, other work is happening here.

This is (7,8,9) the Goods Yard being rebuilt; I had never been here before the British Ceramics Biennial of 2021, when (10) was taken (the festival is soon coming back and you can go to it after Heritage Open Weekend 2023).

The building in (10) has been knocked down but, as you can see, it's being rebuilt in a new (and much bigger) form which I hope to experience when it's back.

Psychic Edgelands

Terminal Zones, by Gareth E Rees 

Terminal Zones is the first short story collection by the Hastings-based author Gareth E Rees, a compelling evocation of ravaged inner and outer landscapes, environmental crisis, magick and ritual, in a South-East England where living pylons, secret weird spaces and weaponised shopping trolleys transfigure consciousness. Bookended by weirdness in the Arctic and rural Gloucestershire, these strange psychogeographically informed tales create a region that takes in the M25, Hackney Marshes and Rees's own seaside town, serving as an ecologically collapsing antithesis to Hardy’s Wessex.  

The ten stories in this volume, wherein the everyday and the otherworldly interpenetrate, are dark chronicles of our individual and collective madness in these strange days, though sometimes the apparent insanity that burdens the protagonists seems more like an understandable, almost reasonable reaction to our dystopic situation. After all, look what our consensus reality has led us to - which is really the underlying point of these stories. 

The spirits of Lovecraft, Machen, Carpenter, Cronenberg, Burroughs and Ballard hover above the destinies of the ordinary yet extraordinary men and women of Rees's imagination. Their worlds are ours: the supermarket car parks, suburban streets, edgelands, superstores, and that unfathomable boundary between quotidian reality and the visionary dimension. They are drawn with sympathy and pathos, a touch of dark comedy here and there that would make Roald Dahl chuckle, and a true surrealist sensibility. They are all outsiders in their unique ways, prisoners of the Spectacle looking for a way out and into a place of some sort of peace. Aren’t we all? 

Terminal Zones is published by Influx Press. https://www.influxpress.com
