I had heard of this Roy Orbison in Clingfilm "obsession art" thing before but did not actually read it until just now. Wow. That's really stunning work. I am literally stunned. Abattoirs could use this as a humane-ish alternative for knocking over livestock animals before gruesomely eviscerating them.

As in, live readings? Interpretive dance, er, interpretations? Or actually being wrapped in clingfilm? Either way, I like your thinking and I'm glad you have come to know the strange and otherworldy joy that Roy Orbison in Clingfilm can bring. It is a joy that should be shared, I feel. For example, the novel of Roy Orbison Wrapped in Clingfilm could be placed in motel bedside drawers instead of The Bible. That would be a good start, I feel. ;)

At the very least, an undoubtedly enlightening social experiment.

What a perfect matching of comment and icon! ;D

you should use it more. randomly. i for one would never find a dose of clingfilm to be unwanted.

johnnypurple March 29 2009, 23:27:40 UTC

i know you would, but not everyone is a colossal pervert like you! ;)

nixwilliams March 30 2009, 08:19:03 UTC

are you trying to imply that i am some kind of colossal pervert?

johnnypurple March 30 2009, 11:03:20 UTC

I like that one. It makes me want to dress up like Roy Orbison and hand you a roll of cling film.

johnnypurple March 31 2009, 11:18:11 UTC

This could be arranged. But just one roll? Would that be sufficient? Perhaps we could have a room full of them a few more on hand, just in case. :D

wolfy_writing March 31 2009, 15:31:03 UTC

Well, one roll can cover a surprising amount. But having a generous supply on hand might be wise.

Capital.

You, me, the clingfilm, the dark clothing and dark glasses. It's a date.
