I stumbled across this in the Wall Street Journal last week and have finally gotten around to posting it. Greylodge has a space that is linking to You Tube and is linking to increasingly, rare and avant-garde films. On YouTube, there are 1969 art videos by Nam June Paik, an iconic 1930 film by Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dalí, as well as a clip of Dalí in a chocolate commercial – I’m sure that’s tasty.
Anyway to facilitate a better understanding I thought I might share a few of the links as well as the page I’m talking about – enjoy.
