Pharaoh’s day out

[mudwerks]

Above is an Egyptian promo poster made for Pam Grier's blaxploitation flick Sheba, Baby, in which she played the title character Sheba Shayne (surely one of the best names for a PI ever). We have no Egyptian premier date for the film, but it probably happened well after its 1975 U.S. opening.

"Solo" by blkMEDUSA

[mvaljean525]

The toy become the aesthetic archetype

As if some patient peasant God had rubbed and rubbed the Alpha and Omega of Form into a lump of metal

A naked orientation unwinged unplumed the ultimate rhythm has lopped the extremities of crest and claw from the nucleus of flight

The absolute act of art conformed to continent sculpture —bare as the brow of Osiris— this breast of revelation

an incandescent curve licked by chromatic flames in labyrinths of reflections

This gong of polished hyperaesthesia shrills with brass as the aggressive light strikes its significance The immaculate conception of the inaudible bird occurs in gorgeous reticence
