Screen Test #1

People-watching, I'm sure you or her or him or someone over there who has no idea who they are has done it. Has any of us really experienced this in the purest, most honest reality? No. I have...Watch Screen Test #1 and #2 by Andy Warhol, if you ever do get the chance. I feel as if only a few are lucky enough. Many will ignore this not knowing what it will/can do for them.There you are, you sit in a dark room... as tiny as you'd like to make the experience that much more intimate. A 60's icon stares right back at you... could be Lou Reed could be John Ashbury, meeting you eye to eye allowing you to see through the depths of their soul. You sit there, 2 whole minutes of connecting... apprehensive, creeped out, perversion, an intense eye-staring contest, discomfort, honesty, puked out honesty... and most of all. desire. the desire to connect, at some level, in some way. could it ever be fulfilled? at the end you are left with "..." that, and exactly just that. your mind is in auto-pilot mode, dispersed, racing at the speed of light ready to go at any second.then it gives, so tired so weary so accomplished yet left with the biggest gap of all... the feeling of desiring even more. to feel, to hear, to watch... it's simply not enough. honesty sometimes feeds you the very lie that you don't wish to know. or maybe lies are just truths that have no answers when asked about. p.s. thanks andy.
