Jewel Spew

Artist Kourtney Keller offers the following explanation of what's going on in her video:

The subject of JEWEL SPEW is literally saturated with light…so much so that it endlessly sprays out of her in the form of light beams and jewel plumes. Likewise, her environment is saturated with jewels and she is choking on them. In the futile act of trying to shake them off, she activates the possibility that her predicament is terminal...
the subject of JEWEL SPEW is caught in a hypnotic video loop of spewing bling. She is not only surrounded by what is afflicting her, but appears contagious.

Apparently, Kourtney has a hold of the stick by the wrong end. It's the *artist* that's supposed to suffer, not the viewer.

14secs and, demonstrating the proper use of the mouse, I skip ahead to 1:10 and, once again, mouse to stop.

Gee, that was fun.

"Why would he be throwing up diamonds? So stupid."

So says my eight year old son.

Yes, the music was the only good thing about it. The rest was just senseless.

Wow. That may be the worst thing I've ever seen. A serious misuse of psychotropics.

The great Canadian poet Irving Layton said, 'The two qualities most important for a young poet are arrogance and inexperience.' If it applies to videographers, this person is well on her way.
