Holy Moly. I just learned of this through the substack article...and two things have peaked me hard:
You use the term "spectacle" here. I have recently been posting parts of Guy Debord's "The Society of The Spectacle". Worth checking out!!!
And...the fact that you;ve wired $$ to Czech gov. for files...Dudes!!! See if you can in any way get a hold of the historical film,...which a friend of mine in Hawaii returned to them some years ago...of the band that made the revolution there: "The Plastic People of the Universe"!
Started by a bearded Oregon hippie, it fueled it all. Astounding story, all in all. I was told personally, by this friend who had to leave, be declared dead, etc.
So, yeah, that's a big one you could look for....sure it's out there.
And, as far as the jolly so much fun to be around Czech's go, the city of Brno still holds a yearly "Silly Walks".
Far as animation goes, I have an idea for years for an animation, but the topic is not all that popular.....yet, I would LOVE to see it happen!! It would be very informative, to say the least.....but, I'm lame at all this tech. I won't even have a phone. Pretty much out there most of the time....quantum mind.
Love the style this is written in. Always informative and personal yet highly researched. Thank you.
I just read the book. I think it's fascinating how art can create other art, and your article delves into that idea very thoughtfully.
