I was asked why I wear the hat, wig, and glasses, when the props seem to get in the way. In this video, I had presumed that the horror sound effect cues would ensure that the wig and glasses were meant to be silly fun. The last thing I could do at this point in my life is take myself or my contraptions seriously. I have three or four mop wigs that I wear in occasional videos to present more ridiculously, and the hat is part of my daily outfit and looks even sillier atop a mop wig, so I couldn't dream of leaving it off. The light-up glasses are from a Japanese manga, but I wear them for the slapstick opportunity for Mr. Meow to guide my hand when necessary (though he didn't do it in this video), as well as for subtle implications -- being "blinded by the light," a bright idea have a slightly debilitating side effect, "the brighter the light, the deeper the shadows" (which ties to many of my esoteric interests and the subtly occult feel to the Penetralia web series), operating according to second sight / intuition, the visual pun of "sun - glasses," and the fact that my feeling around for a button recalls using a Ouija board (which is an insight courtesy of world-renowned lecturer George Parker from another video featuring my light-up glasses). So yeah, the wig for comedy / self-deprecation and the glasses for the symbolism of blind prophets. Oh, also: I wear the glow-glasses because I think they're neat. I wear the hat because it makes me look like a grown up, and when I pair it with a childish mop wig, there's a contradiction.

We couldn't afford the $27,000 jukebox we wanted, so we built our own (Bigfoot-themed) out of recycled barn wood. It was a blast curating the playlist of Bigfoot songs. Upon learning about the jukebox, acclaimed novelist and poet Gary Barwin offered some dance instruction:

| * Historians must reconstruct the past out of hazy memory. "Once upon a time" requires "second sight." The "third eye" of intuition can break the "fourth wall" of conventional perspectives. Instead of "pleading the fifth," historians can take advantage of the "sixth sense" and be in "seventh heaven." All with the power of hindpsych, the "eighth wonder of the world." It has been said that those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it. Therein lies the importance of Tarot readings for antiquity. When we confirm what has already occurred, we break the shackles of the past, freeing ourselves to chart new courses into the future. |
