This blog is many things to not-so-many people. Among its functions, it acts as the antithesis–an antidote, if you will–to whatever’s cooking on the home page. For example, if the crass commercialization of those Walk Hard pop-up ads is getting to you, come to the blog where the only thing we advertise is our desperation. If there’s a new video on the home page that’s really funny, we try to post something completely unfunny here. And if a video premieres that’s so addictively intoxicating and disorienting–as is the case with today’s Y’all So Stupid–that you end up doing this, then let this blog be the “safe space” where you can come down in peace. Amongst friends and fellow visionaries. Kind of like a commune.
You may have noticed, Devin Flynn’s series for us has been gradually morphing into a more fully realized mindfuck with each new episode. Apparently, he moved somewhat recently from New York to L.A. where he now employs a cadre of animators and helper gnomes to jam as much shapeshifting weirdness as possible into each Y’all So Stupid. But that’s not to say that’s all he does. He’s plenty in-demand in the fun-time indie muzik circles, too (i.e. Erase Errata’s “Retreat, The Most Familiar,” Lightning Bolt/Wolf Eyes’ “Pick A Winner”). And then there’s this lil’ educational gem he did. It’s called How Do We Hear? and it’s his version of a children’s cartoon. The signature “drawn from an acid trip” style animation is the same, but the hallucinatory vice and crap eating that are his usual subject matters is replaced with a gentle and informative lesson on the intricacies of auditory perception. Now, how’s that for a warm blanket, Captain Trips?
