La Voie Lact\u00e9e (1921) by George Barbier.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2022 Fun news of the week: “The Taylor Swift vinyl haunted by Britain\u2019s weirdest musicians<\/a>.” The “weirdness” is tracks from Happy Land: A Compendium of Electronic Music from the British Isles 1992\u20131996<\/em><\/a> which have been mispressed onto Swift’s latest, the re-recorded Speak Now<\/em>. One of the offending pieces is Soul Vine (70 Billion People)<\/em><\/a> by Cabaret Voltaire, a relatively understated instrumental from the Plasticity<\/em> album which features samples from the Demon with a Glass Hand<\/em> episode of The Outer Limits<\/em>. \u201cIt\u2019s possibly the most subversive thing we\u2019ve ever done,\u201d says Stephen Mallinder. Adventurous Swifties looking to broaden their horizons are advised to try The Crackdown<\/em> next.<\/p>\n

\u2022 “For McCarthy, violence is the signature of God: God, who cannot be seen, who is only indicated by an absence, who no amount of experimenting or observing will reveal, but whose existence is in evidence all around us, every day, through the apocalyptic and apophatic violence that makes up the very stuff of the world.” JC Scharl<\/a> on the violent faith of Cormac McCarthy.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Strange news of the week: Reclusive guitarist Master Wilburn Burchette (age 84) was found dead in a house with the body of his younger brother (age 76) after decades spent avoiding anyone showing an interest in his music.

\u2022 Takrar<\/em><\/a> by Waref Abu Quba is “an experimental film that celebrates the timeless and intricate beauty of ancient craftsmanship. Filmed in Istanbul, the film takes us on a mesmerizing journey into the past, paying homage to Islamic, Ottoman, Greek, and Byzantine art forms.”<\/p>\n

\u2022 “Could an industrial civilization have predated humans on Earth?” Probably not, but if it was in the deep past how would we know? Joel Froelich<\/a> investigates.<\/p>\n

\u2022 At Dennis Cooper’s: Visual evidence from almost every museum devoted to prestidigitation in the world (for Derek McCormack)<\/a>.<\/p>\n
