This is my long overdue pingback to the Cocteau Twins' 1990 LP, _Heaven or Las Vegas_.
Thank you for your interest in my work. Your kind words, praise and image faves are highly encouraging and deeply appreciated.

Cocteau Twins were a Scottish rock trio (1979 to 1997)

Here is a sample video (with bokeh!): youtu.be/L_Tj4bJ0VFw
Theirs was a distinctive sound described at the time as "ethereal goth;" which begat a music subgenre now called "synthwave," "darkwave," "shoegazer," or "dream pop."
One would listen to their LP records (or CDs) from start to finish; single songs just weren't enough! They were a posterchild for 4AD, a British independent record label that packaged albums with visually distinctive identities that incorporated abstract images like my photograph above.

CLICK + DRAG 3.1/ THE SECOND COMING
SANTOS PARTY HOUSE
96 LAFAYETTE STREET NYC
"SURELY SOME REVELATION IS AT HAND" - W.B. Yeats, THE SECOND COMING, 1919
The pioneering "Cyber/Fetish/Gender-Hacking" party CLICK + DRAG, which ushered out the 20th Century in style and returned with a bang in 2008, held its second annual Future-Spectacle on October 17. Two of Click's founding producers - director and visual artist ROB ROTH and nightlife impresario CHI CHI VALENTI of THE JACKIE FACTORY staged this year's epic CLICK + DRAG 3.1/ THE SECOND COMING at sympatico venue SANTOS PARTY HOUSE. CLICK 3.1/ THE SECOND COMING was a two floor, evening-length epic, preserving the night's strict dress code and pansexual mix of fetishists, artists, gender-hackers and "Glam Nerds."
CLICK 3.1 was inspired by the W.B. YEATS poem THE SECOND COMING, and its themes of new gods for (often terrifying) new Ages, "Spiritus Mundi" or universal subconscious, and a post-Christian world. CLICK 3.1 celebrated gender-bending new prophets and prophetesses, and the neo-tribalism that borrows elements from a myriad of religions to create new believers and practices. CLICK + DRAG 3.1 featured multimedia works directed by Roth and installations and performances by dozens of collaborators.
CLICK 2009 highlights included trans icon and vocalist OUR LADY J, who presented GOSPEL FOR THE GODLESS with piano, choir and chadri design by GARO SPARO, gender-illuminati cabaret troupe THE PIXIE HARLOTS in THE SWITCHING HOUR, and Method Go-Go icons FALON, AMBER RAY and SEQUINETTE. The DJ roster included original Click (and SCISSOR SISTERS) DJ SAMMY JO, DJ JOHNNY DYNELL (who created the night's signature mixes for the clicknyc.com website and show) Darkwave DJs JOSH CHEON (SF) and JOHANNA CONSTANTINE, and electro DJ ANGELO.
Main floor DJs Johnny Dynell (left) and Sammy Jo worked the vintage deacon coats for all they were worth - and rocked the dancefloor.

"And if we follow it?" he said.
"Maybe we’ll find what we lost," she said. "Not the past, but the part of ourselves we left there."
"Together?" he said.
"Always together," she said.

To exceed the ordinary, the artist knows, is both a blessing and a curse. Each touch, each word, each act of creation becomes a paradox: an offering to eternity but rooted in the fleeting frailty of the present. What if they fail? What if the light within, so achingly bright, burns them to ash rather than illuminating their path?

Step into LynchLand's Black Prom, where the Asylum is a realm where reality melds with dreams, and time plays tricks on the senses.Expect a sonic journey through Surreal Darkwave, and let your attire channel the Creatures of the Night. In the Lynchian domain, Aygo Jeon and Fynnia are the eerie Black Prom King and Queen, crowned with secrets. Myrdin Sommer weaves mystic Lights FX, entrancing the crowd in an ever-twisting dream. The entertainment unfolds as surreal vignettes: DJ Bax Coen conjures auditory phantasms. DJ Shinobi manipulates sound like a puppeteer. DJ Aisling conducts the unseen. DJ Khaos becomes a sonic shamanka. The After Party, helmed by DJ Seventh, unravels deeper mysteries. "Immerse in Darkwave's mystique, embrace the night's enigma, and journey through LynchLand's unforgettable experience," guides Cate through the abyss. As David Lynch puts it, "Mankind, not meant to suffer, is cosmic bliss. Let us rock in this surreal abyss."
Black-Eyed People (sometimes called Black Eyed Children or Bek) are young people, often children, with eyes that are solid black with no differentiation between sclera, pupil, or iris, and are occasionally reported to have blue or bluish tinted skin like that of a corpse. Those who report encounters with them often feel that the children were somehow supernatural and extremely dangerous though they could not explain why.
Often they can be seen playing games and singing the nursery songs Old Man Long Legs or He Jumped into a Bramble Bush.
They are usually near abandoned or deserted areas. Sometimes, the reports talk of them appearing at one's doorstep- usually alone or in a pair. They appear to be unusually confident, yet shy children who avoid your gaze and look down, hiding their eyes, but speaking with an eloquency far beyond their apparent age.
Often using the mannerisms and speech patterns of an adult, they occasionally even possess the voice of an adult, too. They will usually attempt to talk the victim into allowing them entry into their home to use a telephone or to be safe from some unspecified danger. Occasionally, when seen outside the home, they will immediately stop their play and stare at you, or, if possible, approach you, asking for a place to stay or trying to talk you into giving them a ride home.
Often, people begin to agree to their requests against their better judgement, even though the request will seem vaguely unsettling, without realizing why it is. Should you discover that their eyes are completely black, the children become very angry and insistent on you complying with their demands. Some people who have encountered Bek feel that the children may have been using some form of low-level mind control to get them to comply.
Experiences involving the Bek generally do not explain the cause of the children's eye color or the origins of the children themselves. Sometimes thought to be the spirits of lost or murdered children, the Bek are thought to be harbingers of ill will and personal doom.
The encounters frequently emphasize that the children must be voluntarily admitted or invited into the house or car in question, and in this way are reminiscent of some vampire legends. However it is unspecified what happens should you comply with their demands, as no reports of the Bek have included that happening, possibly indicating the death of those that comply.
