about

I found myself fascinated with the ideas presented in Laura Mulvey's "Possessive Spectator:" the adornment and fetishization of women in film, and how it translates the cinematic experience. I wrote this from the point of view of the "mythical" women, almost as goddesses discussing being these objects of spectacle.

lyrics

"This man seems more responsive in perception seeing me
despite though his keen nature of melancholy
resistance it won't conquer a grand voice of authority
We're better off just giving into blind machinery

oh love it's coming to us
all spectacle is on us

Mystic erotic vestals of sight and source are we
for man to play upon his wild thoughts and fantasy
The woman, she first manifests in instability
Hate and love and healing touch in dreams of hail mary

oh love it's coming to us
all spectacle is on us"

-Continued, Cut Backup Lyrics-

"lack love, see, take
know now,
build, make
your half of self is what's at stake"

"I am a subject
i am a muse -- ment"

"the growth of perversions is just something we know well"
