ProjectTwo 2 - Music Video Research

Massive Attack - Angel Video

Here we have 3 stills from the music video foe the song Angel by the bad Massive Attack. Above i have put 3 stills from the music video. the first still is from the start of the video where the person in a coffin and the person thats in it reminds me of a vampire or a ghosts and looks still alive but dead. i would say that the age group for the music is around the 40/50's area because the syle of the video is like what you used to get when. The music video is is a scene from a 1932 film, "Vampyr".

Marilyn Monroe died in August 1962. In the following four months, Warhol made more than twenty silkscreen paintings of her, all based on the same publicity photographfrom the 1953 film Niagara. Warhol found in Monroe a fusion of two of his consistent themes: death and the cult of celebrity. By repeating the image, he evokes her ubiquitous presence in the media. The contrast of vivid colour with black and white, and the effect of fading in the right panel are suggestive of the star’s mortality.

ProjectTwo 2 - PoemResearch


By: Tadeusz Rozewicz
Name of poem: Transformation

My little son enters
the room and says
'you are a vulture
I am a mouse'

I put away my book
wings and claws
grow out of me

their ominous shadows
race on the walls
I am a vulture
he is a mouse

'you are a wolf
I am a goat'
I walked around the table
and am a wolf
windowpanes gleam
like fangs
in the dark

while he runs to his mother
safe
his head hidden in the warmth of her dress


Second Poem

Name of Poem: Proofs

Death will not correct

a single line of verse
she is no proof-reader
she is no sympathetic
lady editor

a bad metaphor is immortal

a shoddy poet who has died
is a shoddy dead poet

a bore bores after death
a fool keeps up his foolish chatter
from beyond the grave

Third Poem

Name of Poem The Survivor

forth Poem

Name of poem A voice

They mutilate they torment each other
with silences with words
as if they had another
life to live

they do so
as if they had forgotten
that their bodies
are inclined to death
that the insides of men
easily break down

ruthless with each other
they are weaker
than plants and animals
they can be killed by a word
by a smile by a look

I am twenty-four
led to slaughter
I survived.The following are empty synonyms:
man and beast
love and hate
friend and foe
darkness and light.The way of killing men and beasts is the same
I've seen it:
truckfuls of chopped-up men
who will not be saved.Ideas are mere words:
virtue and crime
truth and lies
beauty and ugliness
courage and cowardice.Virtue and crime weigh the same
I've seen it:
in a man who was both
criminal and virtuous.I seek a teacher and a master
may he restore my sight hearing and speech
may he again name objects and ideas
may he separate darkness from light.I am twenty-four
led to slaughter
I survived.

i think this collage i trying to communicate hectic life in the city, i believe that is doing by the over all grungy effect and the layout is random.
