David Lynch: The Treachery of Language

“The word is now a virus....Modern man has lost the option of silence. Try halting sub-vocal speech. Try to achieve even ten seconds of inner silence. You will encounter a resisting organism that forces you to talk. That organism is the word.” - William S. Burroughs

[@jmpsthrufyre]

al dooze not speaking, and not thinking in word form are not the same. Were you able to stop speaking internally? That's much more difficult. But it is achievable.

[@ploopybear]

For me it's actually much more difficult to speak. I can easily go a minute without thinking anything. I think I'm broken.

Im really really gonna miss him, thank you for this video, I know it seems like a weird paradox, a video explaining how inexplicable Lynch's work is (if that makes sense), but it provided me a lens that I could finally see his work through and a sense of peace when I used to watch his work. It let me define a lot of his stories into something more personal. It made his work feel more like a gift to me and I loved talking to other people to see what his stories meant to them.

I thought I was maybe "at capacity" for David Lynch videos, but you've proven me wrong. This (ironically) puts into words so many things about his work that I've always loved but never really been able to articulate. This was an oasis in a desert of half-baked theories about Judy and alternate dimensions in "Twin Peaks: The Return", that are just exhausting at this point. From now on I'm going to show this video to anyone who asks what I like about David Lynch.

This reminds me of 'defamiliarization' in Russian formalism. "The purpose of art is to impart the sensation of things as they are perceived and not as they are known. The technique of art is to make objects ‘unfamiliar,' to make forms difficult to increase the difficulty and length of perception because the process of perception is an aesthetic end in itself and must be prolonged." ~Viktor Shklovsky

[@missmarple7836]

just wanted to let you know.. i love your videos and this one was the first one i've watched on your channel. i admire how you explored david lynch's relationship with language (words). it seemed to me that david lynch's name has become almost synonymous to anything surreal or weird to the point that when a work of art is said to be "lynchian" then it is intended to mean (merely?) that it's nonlinear and possessing a bigger than life kind of surreal quality, and i've somehow felt that wasn't doing enough justice. but i love how you dug into his early work (which i didn't know about!) and this love-hate uneasy relationship he clearly has with words, naming, letters/characters, speech, the whole mysterious dimension/package of language. thank you for inspiring me. this video's somehow become part of a recurring thing in the back of my head.. like any great movies are.

[@WhatsSoGreatAboutThat]

Thank you so much! :D

[@christianhartleben6689]

First-rate. Solid grounding, compelling, convincing - challenging... gives us so much to keep in mind while watching his work, doubting the power of words, listening to the dialogue rhythms

[@miwwie1504]

Yesterday in the middle of the night, I couldn't sleep. I was thinking about David Lynch's "Mulholland Dr." and was amazed by his daylight jumpscare of the homeless man/woman in the movie because it was so *perfectly encapsulated as a nightmare.* Or the grandparents in the movie that caused Diane to commit suicide, I looked them up, but when I did, something happened. I didn't think about it before, but when I looked up the grandparents, I felt different. Before I searched the situation on Google, I thought of them as Diane's madness and I felt kind of weird and scared because of it. However, when I read about the grandparents online, I didn't really feel that way anymore. Whenever I *name* a situation, it just stops being beautiful. Today, this video was recommended. I pressed it even though I didn't get the title, and it all made sense to me. David Lynch is such a genius, and I admire him and his work. I don't think that there ever will be a writer and a director like him. David Lynch is like his own film genre.

[@alexswedock3911]

something I found interesting is where 'Gordon Cole' originates from - a character from Wilder's Sunset Boulevard. In the film, Gordon Cole is a man who works for Paramount Pictures who's looking to rent an old car for a movie, the car that belongs to Norma Desmond, an old silent film star. However, when Norma Desmond receives the call (from Gordon who wants to rent her car and nothing else) she thinks that she's being called because people want her again. Even the act of calling someone on the phone for a completely unrelated reason can cause things to spiral and make expectations mount. I haven't seen Sunset Boulevard in a while so I may be getting this wrong but I think that's why Lynch chose 'Gordon Cole' as his character's name, because words can be dangerous.

Honestly don't remember when I saw the video for the first time but every time I come back it's amazing to be reminded how much of my work is like that of David Lynch. I absolutely love his work and his fearlessness of not even budging an inch to say anything that could draw his work into perspective. If he wants you to know something, it WILL be there and he won't waste a minute rubbing it under your nose. It's up to you to find out what you want to know and if it leads to madness, so be it.

[@ewanhodson9627]

Good essay, nice use of visuals (I like the references to Lynch's art). I found how Lynch changes the meaning of things to be interesting. From making In Dreams (a calm charming song about dreams and love) into Candy Coloured Clown (a warning of dreams being corrupted and darkness). Love Letters becoming a bullet from a gun. A place with many rooms not being the Great Northern but the Black Lodge. I could go on. The idea that normal or beautiful can be changed into something insidious or dark seems to be a common theme in David Lynch's work. And well done and keep up the good work.

This was great, brought up some marvelous points. I think some of that fear of articulating the suggestive is manifested in the Transcendental Meditation practice of not speaking the mantra aloud, saying it outwith the meditation, or even speaking with specificity about what happens during an individual's own meditation. They use the word 'unbounded' to describe what is achieved in meditation, which I think ties into what you were saying rather nicely.

There is an interesting video of Lynch hanging out with Mark Cousins. They are discussing the film A Straight Story, and Cousins remarks that the camera in an exterior scene looks down on everything, suggesting a special meaning in the placement. He asks Lynch why he chose that particular angle, and Lynch, who looks momentarily irritated, replies "because it felt correct". The signified and signifier. Lynch paints a telephone, and then writes telephone over it. We view those two objects and create the third in ourselves...the concept. I don't think this is unique to him, but universal to all visual arts. It's a form of conjuration that begs explanation when there shouldn't be one. I think that's why he avoids it, because the concept is unique to the person who views the objects arrangement. Or something. Nice video:)

[@WhatsSoGreatAboutThat]

[@xcesar4impx666]

LearsGhost pretentious crap!

[@jmalmsten]

That reminds me of a QnA he did in france that I saw in the DVD for Inland Empire. In it a french film critic went on and on about the meanings that must be hiding in his repeated use of shots where the female form emerges from pitch black into well lit areas. When the critic finally ended his analysis. Lynch lifted his microphone with one hand and started moving his other hand in his trademarked way. He answered with his slightly high pitched and thoughtful voice, "I like... To see... Women... Come out of darkness." I will always remember that response. Because, in many ways, to over analyze a Lynch film, is to miss the point. He rarely knows himself exactly why he puts stuff in there. And I get the feeling that... He's not interested in knowing why.

[@hanniffydinn6019]

jmalmsten he's just working from his unconsciousness gut, he genuinely doesn't know. This is why his work is dreamlike and memorable. It literally is putting unconscious shit on film. We all have that weird shit going, we rarely try to capture it on film though. I guess only artists who paint and draw ( like lynch ) have trained their skills to capture that unconsciousness on film. Personally in still think the surrealists like Dali and Breton et al nailed it better..... But then that's all gone now. We as left with people like lynch and terry Gilliam.

[@adzak98]

Surrealism isn't gone. It changes with the times. It, unfortunately, does not have the same mind boggling effect on the general public that it had during the original movement. For the true surrealist it's a way of life. Nowadays most artists are afraid to live it. Lynch is a true surrealist. He lives it.

[@themadhattress5008]

The use and very limits of language are themselves unique and powerful. A lot of things only have meaning only because we give them their value. Ironically, the limits of language are horridly profound across the barriers that make them. Indeed, the more we try to describe a language using the very tools of language itself, it ultimately falls apart. To think we must use the very medium to describe it is what makes studying it all very tedious and confusing. I think the most pertinent example I can give is writing. I myself am a poet, though I dabble in stories and the like. Let me tell you how troubling it is to find a word or phrase that accurately defines what I think, let alone feel: terribly so. It's often impossible to literally put into words the way you feel or what's going on inside your head. It's like painting on a canvas with an insufficient amount of paint; you try and try to mix the right colours, but you just end up getting a messy void of pitch black paint. Once slathered on your canvas, it's not right. You don't like how it looks. It's imperfect. Even in creating such a metaphor, it's hard to accurately describe what I'm trying to. And that again is the limit of language. Your mind mixes and matches phrases to create lines that seem to just not work. I can't tell you how many times I've just let a poem idea sit there for days or weeks -- sometimes months at a time -- until I can manage to complete it. Strangely enough, I've also had moments of clarity and finesse where I can write a complete poem in 10 minutes or less (usually the latter). Language is truly an interesting thing to study. How it works, what it does, and even how it impacts the mind. The very connotations of words can completely change how we feel about a given sentiment or topic. It's one reason why the media is so good at manipulating the lot of us; a few simple buzzwords can immediately force us to fixate on just what they want us to. It's a neat trick, one that's also used in advertising and so on and so forth.

[@gregalee]

This brings to mind the Cowboy character in Mulholland Drive. When he meets the film director, Adam, at the ranch in the hills, he is full of analytical, almost legalistic menace. He is unusually deliberate in his delivery of words. They are chosen with deep, logical precision and structured as orders to be followed without derivation. Commands. This is so atypical of Lynch's dialog that the Cowboy comes across and disturbingly formal and threatening. Perhaps this belies a deep distrust by Lynch of people who have mastered words and live, bounded, by their analytical structure. Lawyers, studio heads, the controllers and puppeteers of our world, weaving words to trap, enslave and direct others.

Followed by Nance barking and some sort of magical flash.

[@WhatsSoGreatAboutThat]

That's another great example of Lynch's use of language! I decided to focus on The Alphabet, Mulholland Drive and Twin Peaks from the audio-visual side as I didn't want to keep switching between too many things, and quite a few potential examples were just cut for time. Thanks for adding this one!
