GET TO KNOW ME MEME ♡ characters → APRIL LUDGATE

“Prom is nothing but a huge party full of smiling, dancing people enjoying themselves. It’s literally my worst nightmare.”

In the wake of the Nurture tour I was going back to some Porter Robinson stuff and I noticed something about the Look at the Sky music video that I never really noticed before. Since it was released during the pandemic, I had instinctively associated the empty walls and phantoms as representing the isolation of lockdown. But there is another interpretation that struck me today.

At the very beginning of the video, in the course of just a few seconds, you can see the phantom characters performing key elements from the history of technology: mining, chopping wood, fashioning tools, doing basic chemistry, and finally advanced manufacturing and electronics, which ultimately enables Robinson to begin playing his music.

He begins to sing as they silently watch him, a constant presence that is mute but ultimately dominates his space.

The fact that they are dressed as literal ghosts suggests that they represent the people of history, who have shaped the environment that he lives in and have created the tools and structure to facilitate his own forms of expression. They also play music with him, showcasing how the music that exists in the current day is not only a modern production, but has grown from and is being perpetually informed by all the music that has come from the past.

These ideas are even further reinforced when the camera pans down to show a collection of buried ghosts literally holding up the surface of the world:

At the very end of the video, the camera moves away from Robinson, and when it returns, he is also shrouded, one of the many phantoms on our screen. He has become one of them - inevitably incorporated like everyone else into the cultural infrastructure of art and history and labor that the future will be built on.

It’s possible I’m just being late to the game and I should have been reading it this way from the first place, but it was a lovely thing to discover about a piece of media that I thought I already knew and understood. Porter Robinson’s work never fails to delight me.

fun thing about king James, this guy was fairly public about his bf (more public than what was acceptable). He threw lots of extravagant parties with his man on his arm. It pissed off the church obviously so to get them off his back, he’s the one that ordered the third translation of the Bible from Hebrew to English (the King James Version aka the Authorized Version) so the Bible every hot blooded all American Christian reads today was literally just written so a very gay king could fuck his boyfriend in peace.
