Darkness surrounds me. I am beset on all sides by demons. Apart from this, work is going well. “Meleager’s Garland” opens soon in Lincoln, though I feel due largely to a feeling of lethargic ennui I may not make the opening. Today’s business has been the testing of the live broadcast software for http://www.fieldbroadcast.org/
Hopefully next week will see my attempts to launch rockets broadcast live onto desktops around the world. I am sincerely hoping I won’t blow my fingers off whilst craving a bit of innocent drama. My test broadcast was much more pedestrian as I chose to film a surveillance camera that swivels menacingly in the street outside my new lodgings. So far settling into the flat is progressing at a languid pace. The purchase of a lurid rug has allowed my companion and I to ‘picnic’ in the living room. We still do most of our ‘living’ in the bedroom which is in itself larger than my old appartments at St George’s street. Last night, huddled in bed, we watched a film in which a character called Verbal constructed it’s entire narrative from the words on papers pinned to the wall behind his interrogator.

Lost Souls

Here follows yet another list of people who were clearly looking for something else when they washed up on my blog. It is perhaps not suprising that my use of the title “Blue Film” should draw attention though I had thought by not using “Movie” I would avoid causing too much disappointment. In fact the phrase, to me, seems rather quaint. A “blue movie” (this will raise heads at computer terminals on the Indian subcontinent) is a rather nostalgic phrase conjuring a more gentle, softly lit age that I’m not sure ever existed. I hope the person looking up Charlton Heston wasn’t too shocked.
