Joanna Newsom: Divers

They screened this before a showing of Victoria at the SIFF Egyptian Theater in Capital Hill, no warning or anything, and I thought we were all being fooled.

Or PTA lost his f---ing mind.

I found myself transfixed, horrified, laughing, and nauseated simultaneously.

I'm sure that if I re-watch it, I'll have some strange urge to kill the Koch brothers and burn down JP Morgan Chase.

If you do get the chance to see it, help me analyze the cryptic Illuminati code, and maybe bring noise canceling headphones, and blinders.

This is not a masterpiece music video like "Hot Knife," this, to me, is closer to cinematic masturbation, like Victoria, than anything else.
