I’ve been working my way through this 1950s podcast by someone named John Tolkien called ‘Lord of the Rings’–it’s a deep dive into this fictional world he created. Good stuff, really bingeable!
On the local news, there once was a short report about a local artist - some hippie-like old man. He drew pictures, but also played music.
He talked about this fantastic idea of his: presenting his pictures with his music. As an extra gimmick, he produced little slideshows or animations from his pictures, accompanied by his music.
He was so was proud, like he basically invented moving pictures with sound - which is just a fucking video, isn’t it?
The news also praised him, like he was being soo creative and a such an innovative artist - for making videos. Great!
That man’s name? MTV
