Thanks for sorting out my free afternoon, DG. Perhaps I'll take the RV1 there.
|
I look forward to catching some of The Clock next week. The main Turbine commission does look rather weak sauce this time around.
|
Why is the IAN not IA:N on the poster?, the inconsistency is irritating, especially as you have M:AR on the next line.
Apparently Harold Lloyd comes out of copyright next year. |
"To conclude, Tania's overall conceit falls flat because..."
Wonderful i/p Freudian slip perhaps? |
Not far from bus route RV1 so maybe you had a farewell ride.

Still Anon...
Every line on the poster has three colons. Your needless irritation is because you've fixated on one pattern, and failed to see another. |
Strangely, I went to exactly the same things at Tate Modern yesterday afternoon, and had pretty much the same reactions. Like you, I didn’t know about the image of the refugee under the panels in the Turbine Hall, and had absolutely no idea it was there until I read about it afterwards, despite having wandered around the space for a while.
I’d seen the 11.00 to mid-day section of The Clock twice a few years ago, so it was nice to see a different bit (16.00 to 17.00). My reaction isn’t so much to notice the relatively smaller number of clips for 4.32, when compared with 5 o’clock; more to marvel that Marclay and his team found anything at all for those times. And it’s funny too. I’m glad you enjoyed it, although all of this will help to reinforce the belief of some of my friends that I’m really you... |
I’ve got a bit of a sniffle. I might go to the menthol room to try cleaning my pipes.

rache...
No, its still irritating. |
There was a long queue of bright young things waiting to see The Clock when I passed by at about 8 on Friday. Tate Late does seem to have become a very popular free event.
|
Hey Still Anon.
It's "it's", not "its". Now that's irritating. |
I have not yet seen the bit at 2.54 but the clips around 13:45hrs are particularly recommended.

Up until the late 70's film shows at cinemas were shown as "continuous performances" and you could enter and leave anytime, most people would leave when the programme got to repeat itself, giving the expression "this is where we came in". I always preferred that method of screening and do not like today's cinemas with "separate performances", so the Tate showing a movie where you can come and go anytime is great.
Also back in the days of continuous performance the cinemas normally had a large illuminated clock either side of the screen so you always knew the time. Seems this movie scores points on that level too with its on screen clocks. |

Blue Witch: No, 'conceit' really does mean that.

Hi, just wondering if those Tate posters are yours and if you’re willing to part with them? 😌
|
They were on the wall of the gallery three years ago, so no.
