[[i love words // writing systems my beloved // stuff about or in non-english languages is tagged '<language name> language']]
it’s always ok to dm me about something i’ve posted about or talked about in tags, but messages that just say "hey" will not be answered
asks are usually open, do knock yourself out. i'm always happy to share factual information related to inside no 9, the league of gentlemen, reece shearsmith’s acting work, pembersmith lore etc
[[answered asks // asks game]]
tags are sometimes for categorisation, sometimes for yapping and trauma dumping. i have other blogs where i'm a lot stricter with my tagging, so i cut myself some slack in this, my diary
if you would like to support me or show appreciation, here is my tip jar
fics'n'fanworks masterpost of my fics, fanvids, podfics and webweaves. also tagged stuff i made along with gifs and creative stuff that doesn't fall under the pembersmith fanworks umbrella

Ahhhh, nothing quite like introducing an American to the Northern Territory’s “C U in the N T” tourism marketing campaign and watching their face engage in a slapdash performance of every emotion known to man in the span of about three seconds

Thank you for the tag @kookaburrito! I know I am abysmal at getting round to responding to these things so thank you for your patience and for continuing to tag me in stuff 🙏🏻
Last song: According to Spotify the last song I listened through was Forever by Bruderschaft. It's kind of an EBM-industrial supergroup with members of VNV Nation, Apoptygma Berzerk, Icon of Coil and Covenant involved, and the song was written and mixed by Rexx Arcana of FGFC820. Rexx died two weeks ago after living with and fighting cancer for many years, which prompted me to revisit it.
Favourite colour: Remains turquoise/teal tones
Currently watching: I'm enjoying House of the Dragon series 3 very much and enjoying The Vampire Lestat/Interview With the Vampire series 3 a bit less. Star Trek: Strange New Worlds series 4 will be starting up soon, so I'll be watching that as well.
Currently reading: In the Blink of an Eye: A Perspective on Film Editing by Walter Murch. It's held up as a great book about the craft of editing (Murch edited The Godfather, Apocalypse Now and The English Patient). I feel like I'm at that plateau-ing stage where I've got a handle on editing basics, I feel like I have a talent and instincts, but I need some guidance and mentorship to really progress. So I thought I would see if I could learn a thing or two...
Current obsession: Shearsmith, Reeson Wayne. (1969--) The life, work and artistic associates of.
Currently working on: Lots of prep and planning stuff for the two short films I'm gonna be directing in August. Finding a job. Maybe finding a girlfriend.
Coffee or tea: I am on record as a heavy consumer of black coffee
Last Google search: I typed "Madam Cragg" to see what would come up and discovered an unaired episode of Inside No 9...

Sure thing! For convenience I’ll refer to the guy with his arms in his pockets as SG (shorter guy) and the one on the computer as TG (taller guy).
In the first panel, SG sees TG playing on the computer and is disappointed. SG puts a lot of value in the idea of “making things,” specifically “art,” and thinks TG is just wasting their time
So he asks them if they wouldn’t rather be “making something” instead of just playing games and listening to music, implying that TG isn’t doing anything worthwhile or creative with their time
But TG replies that “interpreting is generative,” meaning that even if they spend their time just doing fun stuff, the mere act of enjoying something is creating an experience and an interpretation. Talking about something, dancing to music or sharing a piece of art with your friends IS “making something,” and each of those can be worthwhile and artistic.
SG leaves, complaining he “can’t be an auteur of [interpretation].” Auteur is a movie term that refers to a filmmaker with artistic control and vision enough to be considered essentially the singular creator of the resulting work of art. Turns out, SG doesn’t just want to “make things,” he wants to make things he and others see as “important.” He wants to make art not for the sake of art, but for the sake of being recognized and praised for his art.
This comic really speaks to elitism within the artistic community, the idea that art needs to meet certain standards to be considered art. SG’s viewpoint is really traditionalist, that art need to be “approved” and validated in order to be considered “really art;” while TG recognizes that art can be as little as just talking about what you love.
TLDR: Art is for everyone, not just some sort of social “artistic elite.”
