Let's just say this was the last thing I was expecting. Opening scene, It seems like the man is a reincarnation of Steve Carroll's 40 year old virgin, living at home with his mother making awkward youtube videos, but then all of a sudden it seems like a nursing home, and then the wall is peeled away to reveal people in black leather costume- the woman pulls the shade, and the man changes character- into a woman, then once again, back into a man, at 2:28 is where things really start to pick up. Breaking the fourth wall throughout the entire video, the camera takes in the club scene and the variety of characters, then once again leads back to the 40 year old virgin character, staring straight at the camera, in an old fashion type home with his mother.
SO, are we led to believe these are the dreams he fantasizes about? Dub step clubs with outlandish characters?
Once again, an evolving piece that resembles someone's acid trip, I'm tempted to connect the layering of transitional characters to BLU BLU.
I've heard Carmen countless times before but to August's credit, this piece is entirely original.
