Fabulettes

1969.  7" single, gatefold book style.  Chuffed to find this in the Salvation Army shop, so imagine my annoyance when I pulled the record out and discovererd it was Two Bastard Little Boys by Rolf Sodding Harris.

Anyway, you can find the tunes on Youtube:

This New Ocean

Aggregate

Does anyone else get hungry looking at this?

The Poet's Dream

From Sergej Paradžanov's "The Color of Pomegranates", 1968.

Stranger

Stranger. 1959.

The Modern Sculptors: Lynn Chadwick. 1961.

The Spider Elephant

WATCH and LISTEN.  It's bloody brilliant.  Animation by Piotr Kamler, music by Bernard Parmegiani.  1967.

Polish animator Kamler worked in Paris with Service de la Recherche ORTF - a centre for experimentation in the fields of TV and radio, headed by Pierre Schaeffer and employing the likes of Janis Xenakis, Luc Ferrari and Bernard Parmegiani.

There's a DVD which collects all of his films [so far - I think he's still about and doing stuff though it's hard to find anything online]: 'Piotr Kamler, à la recherche du temps'

Quentin Crisp's acting debut in Captain Busby (1967)

The entire film can be seen here: The Even Tenour Of Her Ways

Pylon Men - 1956 and 1966

"In days to come, pylons too may have their champions, eager to preserve them as historic monuments."

Fabulous, beautiful images in both films. Note the shift in tone from casual butch (1956) to strident butch (1966).
