<i>The Wicker Man</i> is being re-released into <a href="http://www.rialtopictures.com/wickerman.html" target="_blank">select theaters</a> across the nation to celebrate a new (director supported) cut touted as the <i>final</i> cut. All sorts of newly commissioned art has been done (the above top most is the new DVD cover by Dan Mumford)</div>
and I'm sure countless special features have been put together as well so hide your dork boner. If you're a fan of the film then a fan you shall remain as you take your seat. If you have never seen the film then you really are in for a treat. Unorthodox, unpredictable, unreal, unshitty. This movie is great on any number of levels, not least of which is the INFAMOUS WALL SLAPPING SCENE!! BEHOLD:<br />

Legendary Italian prog film score band <a href="http://www.newgoblin.com/news.php" target="_blank">GOBLIN</a> is alive and well, recording new albums, touring around the globe and visiting America for the first time ever. My friends who went to see them recently here in Portland said that they killed it. Woe upon me that I could not make it! In Los Angeles they were a part of the awesome <a href="http://beyond-fest.com/" target="_blank">Beyond Fest</a>, where they performed their scores for Agrento's Suspiria, Profundo Rosso and Tenebrae live in front of a HUGE screen showing the original 35 mm films. Drooool, this must have been a howling good time. Awesome live shots via <a href="http://instagram.com/deathwaltzrecs" target="_blank">DeathWaltz Records</a> , who are also seriously great and have been doing an amazing job re packaging and releasing important horror soundtracks recently. Honestly I'm thankful to anyone involved in making this happen, Goblin ruled, still rules.</div>

OOOOOOOOOOOOO, it's that time of the year, kiddos. HALLOWEEN time and that means only one thing: Secret Lexicon gets to crank the spook element even more than usual!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And speaking of ghouls, I love the French. Not only are they patron saints of erotic/transgressive anything, but also back in the late 19th to mid 20th century they boasted a HELL-themed cabaret. For those of you who don't already know, "The Cafe from Hell" resided in the notorious Pigalle district (red light district) of Paris. According to the internet and at least two brief magazine bits I've read, a sadly diminutive amount of memory and information has been left behind since the Dark One yanked the Cafe and all it's sexy employees right back down into the nether regions. These photos above and a few more exterior shots are all that seem to be left. No anecdotes! THINK of what must have gone down! <a href="http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/flashback/0308/index.html" target="_blank">This National Geographic article</a> says that, according to so-and-so, whenever visitors entered the Cafe they were greeted by a sly costumed devil who exclaimed "ENTER AND BE DAMNED!" and that a coffee spiked with cognac was apparently called out as a "a seething bumper of molten sin with a dash of brimstone intensifier." This last, no doubt, sounds different in French.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There will be some more delightfully macabre posts soon I hope as the climax of this wonderful cider drinking gourd worshipping trees exploding into flickering firework still-lives season approaches. I'm in a great mood. I would have posted more lately if I weren't too busy DRINKING PUMPKIN BEER AND WATCHING HORROR TRASH AND LISTENING TO METAL BULLSHIT.</div>

Paul Koudounaris is a man who is sometimes referred to as "Indiana Bones." That's magnificent on it's own, but there is a reason! He has become famous for unearthing ancient relics and taking gorgeous photographs of them. His speciality seems to be ossuaries and earthly remains associated with the church. There are a couple of big beautiful books out that collect this stuff and you should buy them. The photos above are I believe primarily of Catholic saints discovered in catacomb vaults. These guys are around 400 years old and still killing it. </div>

Among other things, Michael Wolf has taken a lot of architectural photography of the insanity that is Hong Kong. I love the way he allows buildings to completely fill the frame in an all-over-everywhere mosaic. These images are all from his series <i>Night</i>, which I particularly like.</div>

A German science-based photographer with the awesome name of Julius Grimm made this painting of the Moon in 1888. He took all of his lunar photos, mapped them together and eliminated the shadows to create an impressively accurate portrait. It's a large image so zoom in.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Grimm became famous for his Atlas der Astrophysik, published in 1881.<br />

Here is some really striking hand-held real time footage of the tsunami that struck Japan a couple years back. This video hadn't been seen by western eyes until recently having been published by Leakedchannel, <a href="http://www.redflagnews.com/headlines/shocking-new-japan-tsunami-video-found-released" target="_blank">though I found it here first.</a></div>

It is about twenty five minutes and I recommend patiently watching all of it. At the beginning it looks like any other stormy day. By the end it looks like THE END.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Incidentally, the power plants that went down during this disaster have apparently been continuously spilling radiated water into the Pacific ever since.</div>

Finally the new Night Heir album has been released online!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is called <i>A Maze Of Evenings</i> and it took a whole lot of work. It is also the main culprit as to why THIS blog has had to slow down over the past couple years.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I say much more about it <a href="http://www.nightheir.blogspot.com/2013/07/a-maze-of-evenings.html" target="_blank">HERE at the official Night Heir blogspot.</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And you can listen to / download the whole mess for free or donation if you like <a href="http://nightheir.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">HERE at the bandcamp site.</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks a million, folks.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Zoroaster was a Persian prophet and founder of the ancient Iranian religion baring his namesake. There are huge amounts of things to say about him and the lineage of his teachings, which have found traces of their influence winding all the way down into modern disparate practices. But that's another story. In general, Zoroastrianism has it that good agencies and bad agencies or rigorously defined and incompatible. For example, the Zoroastrians believe that anything dead, from bodies to nail clippings, are <i>Nasu</i>: contaminated, unclean and entry points for evil. They cannot be put into the ground as they will infect the earth and they cannot be burned as fire is a pure element. The practice then became to build large circular structures with their openings perpetually exposed to the sun and birds. These are known as a <i>Dakhma</i> (or for us english speakers a <i>Tower of Silence</i>.) The design consists classically of open air concentric circles; corpses of men would be tossed into the outer most rings, the women in the middle areas, and the children into the center. After however long it took to get all the way down to bone, groups of the specifically ordained could enter the Dakhma to collect the leavings and dissolve them in lime baths before eventually sending them down filters and water routes out to the sea.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
On June 30th of 1908 there was a gargantuan explosion above the Podkamennaya Tunguska river in Siberia. Either an asteroid or a comet entered the atmosphere and exploded in mid-air no less than 3 miles above the ground. Nevertheless, the event is considered an "impact" in the scientific field given the amount of physical force inherent in the aftermath and is, in fact, the single largest impact event in known history. The speculated energy attributed to the event varies but generally falls between 10-15 megatons, which is a great many times more than what was done to Hiroshima. Of all the places on the Earth, this explosion took place over the vast Russian hinterlands, populated primarily by trees. 80 million of those trees were stripped like telephone poles and knocked flat in huge arcs pointing away from the blast over an area of some 830 square miles. For the next few nights, the night skies were aglow over all of Europe and Asia. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eHPLi23XDEc/UdecCE--6aI/AAAAAAAAGLY/qUjHe7DEo4c/s1600/08-30June-Cheko-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-eHPLi23XDEc/UdecCE--6aI/AAAAAAAAGLY/qUjHe7DEo4c/s320/08-30June-Cheko-2.jpg" width="320" /></a>Insanely, scientific study of the event was minimal until nearly a decade later. To be fair, this must have had much to do with the isolation and difficulties of the area, not to mention the extreme possibility of destroyed or lost research during the many turbulent years ahead for Russia. Consider also that the epicenter could only be reached by traversing hundreds of miles of tree fall. Still, since the event there have been around 1'000 related reports written and they continue to the present day. The absence of any crater is of course the chief mystery here (though many believe that Lake Cheko in the region is possibly a crater formed by just a small chunk of whatever it was that burst.) The second big question mark is to whether or not this was an asteroid (most believed), a comet, or an alien death-tunnel (least believed.) Some even think it may have been a black hole flying though the earth or tectonic-based, However, this does not account for the tiny spheres of nickel and iron that were found in disproportionate abundance in the area, lending much credence to the meteoroid theory. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Clearly, even taking Siberia's sparse population into account, a huge number of persons must have witnessed this event. But very few of these people told their story to anyone who wrote them down and compiled them. The details we have been able to sweep together since then tell us that some kind of inestimably bright light source suddenly appeared in the sky "like a second sun." The size, color and shape of this light vary, though many described it like a column or pillar. Following the explosion of light were literal explosions of force that came in at least three distinct "thumps." Coupled by the tremendous knocking sounds of giant stones falling, thunder claps or sound-barrier breaks. The wind and heat produced by these thumps scorched, stripped and knocked down trees, resulting in a further sound like heavy artillery fire. Millions of limbs and trunks all snapping at once. The air became unbearably hot, windows shattered and people ran screaming as if from the end times. Many people left their homes and belongings after the event and went to monasteries and holy shrines to fast and pray for forgiveness. Natives in the area had their own Gods to worry about during the event too, believing it to be the angry work of OGDY. Further, when the first expedition set out to find the epicenter of the blast, the native guides who led them there refused to enter the actual blast sight, saying they feared the "valleymen."<br />
A similar explosion, though on a much much smaller scale <i>also</i> happened above Russia just earlier this year, killing many and receiving wide media coverage.</div>

Giovanni Battista Piranesi hung out in Rome among other places during the 18th century. (What's a camera?) He was famous for depicting ancient architectural ruins and "views". He did this with an exceptional talent for depicting spatial relationships, going so far as to imagine the most likely original structural forms and details of ruins, even filling them with absent furniture. This soft blend of highly detailed documentation and proto-surrealist flights of fantasy reached a sudden pitch of badassery when he did a series of imagined underground prisons. Thomas De Quincey suggested that the artist saw these visions in a fever dream while ill and depicted them from memory later.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Some of these images are very large so blow 'em up and explore the detailing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Piranesi once said: "I need to produce great ideas, and I believe that if I were commissioned to design a new universe, I would be mad enough to undertake it."</div>

Not so many posts ago I was talking about <a href="http://www.secretlexicon.blogspot.com/2013/03/benjamin-carbonne.html" target="_blank">just this kind of thing</a>, i.e. vague figures in painting and more contemporary artists carrying a Bacon-esque lineage. Like Carbonne, this person also seems to be of the French tongue.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These images, however, are particularly harrowing and even remind me a little of Alvin Schwartz's terrifying drawings for the <i>Scary Stories</i> book series.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love how some of the images above have almost no physiological reason for registering as a face/figure at <i>all</i>. And yet...</div>

Fear not! Secret Lexicon ain't dead yet.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Many things are happening lately and once again this blog has had to do it's hide 'n' seek routine.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thank you for your patience as I get all these sick ducks back in a row. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There will be new posts soon and, should all goes well, regular posting shall resume shortly thereafter.</div>

The work of Benjamin Carbonne, who I believe might be French Canadian.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Followers of this blog will have guessed that I have an especial interest in painting that toys with, disrupts, distorts or otherwise obscures the human face & figure.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm, of course, a great fan of Francis Bacon. It was a while before I found anything that was really effectively carrying that torch. Though, in the past couple of years or so I've come across and posted about somewhat similar artists such as Nicola Samori, Adolfo Bimer and Agostino Arrivabene.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.benjamincarbonne.net/index.php?id=01">You should visit Benjamin's website, which is in French and has loads more images to peruse.</a></div>
