Captain Edward St. Miquel Tilden Bradshaw and his Crew Come to Grips with Bloodthirsty Foe Pirates by S. Clay Wilson, Zap Comix no. 3, 1968.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2022 RIP S. Clay Wilson, the wild man of American comics. The scene of mayhem above is typical in being barely coherent at a small size; click for a larger view. Patrick Rosenkranz<\/a> at The Comics Journal<\/em> describes Wilson as “the most influential artist of his generation\u2026creating an extensive body of work that will defy authority and offend propriety until the end of days”. When Moebius was writing in the 1980s about the founding of M\u00e9tal Hurlant<\/em> he had this to say about the American undergrounds: “They were the first in the world to use comics as a means of communication, to express real emotions. Before, comics were used only to do stories, entertainment. They had some great moments but they were all very conventional. The American Underground showed us in Europe how to express true feelings, how to tell something to the reader through the comics. They blew the minds of the few professionals in Europe who saw them.” Also at TCJ, the S. Clay Wilson Interview<\/a>. Wilson sent me a postcard once. I wish I knew what the hell I’d done with it.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Michael Hoenig, synthesist for Agitation Free and (briefly) Tangerine Dream, plays one of the pieces from his debut album of electronic music<\/a>, Departure From The Northern Wasteland<\/em>, on a radio show in 1977. Hoenig’s album is long overdue a remastering and re-release.<\/p>\n

\u2022 “My job, which the BBC has tasked me to do, is to provoke people and ask them, ‘Have you thought about looking at the world this way?'” Adam Curtis<\/a> talks to Michael J. Brooks about his new TV series, Can’t Get You Out Of My Head<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u2022 At Greydogtales: Opening The Book of Carnacki<\/em><\/a>. A call for contributions to a collection of new stories about William Hope Hodgson’s occult detective. I’d be tempted if I didn’t already have more than enough to keep me occupied.<\/p>\n

\u2022 “I’m being asked to talk about it a great deal at the moment, with the pandemic.” Roger Corman and Jane Asher on filming The Masque of the Red Death<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u2022 New music: Cygnus Sutra<\/em><\/a> by Mike Shannon, “a soundtrack to a fantasy\/sci-fi epic not yet written”.<\/p>\n

\u2022 A trailer for The Witch of King’s Cross<\/em><\/a>, a documentary about occult artist Rosaleen Norton.<\/p>\n

\u2022 At Dennis Cooper’s: Spotlight on\u2026Hans Bellmer & Paul Eluard The Games of the Doll<\/em><\/a> (1949).<\/p>\n

\u2022 RIP also this week to Rowena Morrill<\/a>, fantasy artist, and to Chick Corea<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u2022 “Computers will never write good novels,” says Angus Fletcher<\/a>.<\/p>\n
