For artists, their outlook of the world can be expressed in the form of discrete symbol systems, and in this way artists are like to refer to their art as their children. For this is true in a partially incestuous way. Our start positions in life are given to us primarily by our experiential parents. Those brave humans who choose to raise us. We take on that gift (or baggage) and transform it over the course of our lives, our lived encounters with the human and natural world. This forms individual outlooks on the world, for none of us sees all of it, or even an identical portion of it.
An artist cannot help but incorporate this subjective model of the unknown objective world into their object 'd art, or can they? In this episode, we discuss the work and lives of a number of authors working in the genre of "The Weird." From H.P. Lovecraft to David Lynch. Yes, it's Arkham to Twin Peaks, by way of Cross Plains, Texas and Detroit, Michigan.
