Proteus vs Skerror - Power Trippin' (Vampire Hunter D tribute)

Vampire Hunter D was one of the first anime that I saw, there are quite a few people who it has a special place for being one of the early horror ones and I think also because of the general weirdness of it. There is something very 80s and childish about the style of drawing
I rewatched it it was ok, some great ideas and the colours are amazing, but I didn't like the drawings that much

This is a video that I made for a song by a couple of friends from when I lived in Vietnam. The film it is from is Bande a part one of the classic French New Wave films. It's a very interesting film, it's about thee 3 young people who try to rob the girls rich aunt, it's an ok crime film, but the main thing about it is how the kids are so alienated. They aren't bad, they just don't care, I suppose you could say that it's foreshadowing, they are nihilistic and alienated, they only relate to films, not real life. I'm just going to list two things that I love about it. 1) It is very much this magic version of France that I have in my head. I have lived in France and been there a lot, it is a beautiful place, and lovely also, but there is this mythical Amelie sort of France that I think we all have, including the French which is a bit 60s and all soulful depressed people playing pinball in cafes and having long smart discussions.  This film is very much in that ...

  I think that the real ‘conspiracy’ here is not by the military. This focus on identity politics is not the powers that be priming people for another war, it is a capitulation by the youth to the powers that be. In the pre corporate era people were fighting over real life issues. The 60s in America people (not just young people) were fighting the state to end apartheid, military adventurism, nuclear war, drug prohibition, homophobia and many more things. A lot of these were victories for the people. Racism and homophobia are now illegal and socially unacceptable, restricted drugs are not as prohibited as they were, the military still has insane power, but they could not do a draft now like Vietnam etc If you compare that with now, the real issues like the environment, corporate control of government, the wealth gap etc just seem so big and unsolvable that they don’t motivate young people. And the political class are so far removed and incompetent that it just feels futile protesti...

  https://youtu.be/092NTtRTgB8 “Capital is an abstract parasite, an insatiable vampire and zombie maker; but the living flesh it converts into dead labor is ours, and the zombies it makes are us.” ―  Mark Fisher,  Capitalist Realism: Is There No Alternative? This page is for sharing the art that I make and like. I make videos and music, I also know people who I will share. Maybe I will do some rants, the stuff I make is very post-postmodern or whatever. I read Mark Fisher long after I tried to make stuff, but his overall philosophy was about how the 'End of History' as Fukyama put it was meant to be optimistic, but what actually happened was that history lost all sense of narrative and we stopped moving towards anything and are just constantly living in now. From a traditionally capitalist or communist perspective, we are no longer heading towards a bright future, like in the 60s they had competing visions of the future, those dreams have gone and it's just a kind of stas...
