Re: [microsound] the fetishist - WAS Re: [microsound] nuno cannavaro



Well as Robert Moog said in "Modulations," electronic music is the "hot rod" of the nineties (turning now to the millenium), and the computer is the fetishized object par excellence, one which seduces. The fetish was an interesting conceptual manifestation in the film "Crash" by Cronenberg--fetishization of the car, especially as damaged, of the wounded and scarred body, in fact the elision between the body and car was everywhere in the film, most prominently carried out in the montage sequence in the car wash, itself a metonym of the sexual act taking place simultaneously in the back seat.

I've never been much for socks but must profess a fetish for feet. Even an ugly foot can become a source of fascination...in it's "ugliness" of course. :-)
