"AARON DILLOWAY and ED SUNSPOT on the same bill, two absolute masters of the American electrical unconscious. Top-shelf freak shit from people who have spent decades figuring out which wires to cross to make the furniture start remembering things…

Robert Beatty@edsunspot.bsky.social · 5mo agoI'd never seen this episode of Arena focusing on Kenneth Anger's Hollywood Babylon before. It's a very strange time capsule with reenactments, Anger cruising Hollywood in a hearse, music from Laibach and (weirdest of all) narration from Alec Baldwin. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaEB...
