More '80s Flashbacks
By
David just alerted me to this series of enjoyable video essays about the summers of '84 and '89 over at L Magazine. I don't completely agree with the history here--wasn't cable TV more of a promise than a reality circa '84? What can't be read as a symptom (or response) to Reagan-era optimism?--but the idea of music video editing having a profound effect on movie-making/viewing is one that demands exploration. Music videos were such a vital, unique art form for a brief spell, and I'm curious how it will evolve as MTV slides toward obsolescence, and production software becomes cheaper and more readily available.
