I have been mucking around a bit with sound equipment recently and have been particularly curious about the real world voices of bloggers and their relationship to their writings. So, in that spirit, I thought you would get a kick out of a few thoughts on Von Trier’s Dogville.

My friend Rick asked me these questions in the new-ish clusterflock interviews clusterflock series:

Q: Andrew, I just finished watching Dogville, the second time. You spoke of “shaking for days,” after seeing it. If you can recall, what shook you?

(I ask because I’m shaking again, or at least, I’m haunted.)

Q. What have you carried with you, since viewing the film. Were you changed in some elemental way?

A: Download

I have two pieces on visual rhetoric up over at the Marks and Meaning Blog:

  1. Visual Repetition in The Crisis of Credit Visualized
  2. Visual Allusion in the Obama/Hope Poster

Boy with Rooster
Over at clusterflock, I posted a commentary on how this picture has haunted me from youth. The discussion includes onanism, Fish’s reader-reception theory and etymologies. Go forth and enjoy the internet’s that for the sake of which!
