[Inexplicable images from generations ago invite us to restore the lost
sense of immediacy. We follow the founder of the Theater of
Spontaneity, Jacob Moreno, who proposed stringing together "now and then
flashes" to unfetter illusion and let imagination run free. The images
we have collected for this series came at a tremendous price, which we explained previously.] |

From Nebelspalter, 1914. The figure at the bottom, tipping his hat at a trail of injured bodies, recalls the evil detective Hercule Poirot. As we said back in 2012:
It's a little late to be mentioning this, but Hercule Poirot is the greatest villain of Agatha Christie's world (and hence ours, what with the way that fiction interpenetrates). Poirot is inseparable from murder, just as the goddess of the hunt, Diana, is one with the stag. A murder need not have already occurred — Poirot is there, his very presence guaranteeing death. His investigations have nothing to do with serving justice. Let's take an example at random: Death on the Nile. One single, purposeful murder unnecessarily multiplies into five deaths, wholly due to Poirot's egomaniacal investigation. It's inconceivable that five deaths with Poirot's bloody "case closed" stamp are preferable to an unsolved mystery with a single victim. When Poirot finally gathers his (surviving) suspects to endure an interminable blathering of self-congratulation, he never addresses the elephant in the room — the fact that the world would be an infinitely safer place if he were to leave well enough alone. P.S. Poirot is obsessed with motives, as if anyone with a motive possesses, by definition, a criminal mind and the capacity for murder. His presumption that everyone on earth is capable of cold-blooded killing says far more about Poirot's own rotten soul than it does about the rest of humanity.

Ever since we spent the night in that haunted clock tower in Solvang, we haven't been able to properly time our seasonal posts. Whenever you happen to be, this one is from Salem's 1983 yearbook.
