@@JasonTopo Well, if you look at popular music as far back as The Beatles they were inspired by avant garde composers (Stockhausen, Cage) and more niche underground music; you got this in the 90’s, too, where people like Madonna wanted to work with Aphex Twin, who also influenced Radiohead and even John Frusciante.

[@keixoun]

the internet is not evil, it portrays evil because it's an open window into the human soul. i particularly feel that the generation that had an early adolescence coinciding with the mainstream internet access carries a fear and guilt about being misunderstood about what the internet is all about to their parents

[@glenvollmer]

it also doesn't help when all the guys pulling the strings (Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, etc...) are legitimately evil

[@superclarendon8648]

I think facilitating evil and being evil (evil in this case not being gore, but corrosive, hateful, ignorant, destructive etc. speech and ideas) can and do overlap. I think by thinking the opposite that you excuse the worst of humanity as just being our “nature” and not a choice (I don’t mean to offend you, I just want to share my take). Additionally there are the practical examples/arguments as the other commenter mentioned, about how strongly immoral behavior is used to administrate and preserve the internet service, amongst others. When thinking about internet gore though, and I think you implied this, I believe the disgust is justified. I personally don’t think it provides any further constructive value or fulfills a necessity: therefore, I don’t think it has much of a right or reason to exist. However, thinking about the scenario presented in the video, I think it’s better to be level-headed and attempt to understand than to jump to being reactive and destructive. Although, this scenario is inherently surreal and unrealistic, which muddies the idea of what the “right thing” to do was, but if you’re taking it seriously then I have to too for the sake of argument.

We have basically an young boy curious about gore in his new device. The parents never understand, because they already forgotten about their adolescence and the young`s curiosity. The young man fells alone inside his own house, without support from his family. When the father brokes the cellphone, this marks the end of his confidence. So, he goes to the bedroom and plays guitar, until the bedroom becomes small and limited to his talent. In this moment, the walls explode and the boy plays to the wolrd, to the universe. But if you pay attention, the bedroom and some stuff is still there : he never leaved the lonely bedroom. The bedroom will be always inside of him.

I kinda thought it was reminiscing on television tropes. The kid is poorly understood, the parents are just the typical sit com parents. It also is meant to be a shitty VHS recording of television, the VHS has been recorded over so many times that the original content is lost. I thought the end scene was supposed to be funny. The kid goes into the bedroom upset and just plays guitar. If it was on a sitcom there would probably be a laugh track at that part. But it is showing what really would be there if it were real, a lot of soul and feeling in the guitar. That's why the walls fall, he is breaking the fourth wall by actually having depth beyond just being a character

Now I want the Safdie brothers to make an analogue horror movie. Something like "I feel fantastic", Baphomet kun's videos, "Gemini Home Entertainment", or "The Mandela Catalogue", but feature length. The kind that has emotional depth to it.
