the idea that the labels reflect reality w/out obliqueness - skew
is a trick within the 'power' of word
commercial has experiment
if you don't know this fact here is a link
to a great dvd series
this one of the series on
director stéphane sednaoui
is and has been for years experimental -
there are many
i prefer the use of 'underground'
(romantic - like seed and scavenger rat)
'experimental' is kinda boring/limited/pointed
one just need look at '...potemkin'
to know it's not a football game
no 'vs.'
(good vs. evil shadow)
perhaps the best 'experiment' can offer up -
"Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better."
