Things I'm thinking about while waiting for Fourier to come into vogue.
Prince // When You Were Mine// Dirty Mind 1980
This song is so beautifully simple, you just want to add the hand claps yourself, just because it so wants it.

Nazroo, a mahout (elephant driver), poses for a portrait while taking his elephant, Rajan, out for a swim in front of Radha Nagar Beach in Havelock, Andaman Islands. Rajan is one of the few elephants in Havelock that can swim, so when he is not dragging timber in the forest he is used as a tourist attraction. The relationship between the mahout and his elephant usually lasts for their entire lives, creating an extremely strong tie between the animal and the human being. (Photo and caption by Cesare Naldi)
Samantha Fox’s “Touch Me” video
My friend Kelli and I *loved* this video when it came out. You can see why: ’80s rock cheese perfection. I remember we debated whether we’d wear jeans with rips near the butt when we grew up. We also thought that the guy who comes on stage was mentally impaired. We would be like, “Ohh, that’s so sad that he thinks Samantha likes him.” We thought he was just wandering onto stage confused and Samantha was grinding on him from pity or something.
One of the Obsession commercials that David Lynch directed. I remembered this, but not that Benicio Del Toro was in it!
“How many times have I asked you not to disturb the guests with this racket?”
One of my favorite things about the Twin Peaks universe is that the high school kids are all into crazy Badalamenti jazz.
