I love the Doors. They have strong associations with various people, places, yet I don't listen to them enough. The Oliver Stone film is one of my favourites. I relish the chance of introducing others to it, especially friends and lovers, as if they'll somehow understand me better by watching it.Which reminds me - I must re-read Aldous Huxley at some point.
I've been obsessing about this track lately:
Satellite Party ft Jim Morrison - Woman in the Window
It makes me want to climb Mandelbrot Mountain, singing the chorus all the way.
For comparison, the original recording:
Jim Morrison - Woman In The Window
I love how there is a ready made song in just a voice speaking intonated words.

One of my art mates did a collection of copies of Baroque paintings with Huxley quotes hidden in them. If I can get some pictures I will post them on my blog - they were awesome.

Oh totally, that'd be mad to see.
