A Thanksgiving Wish From William S. Burroughs [VIDEO]

COED Magazine (Free subscription) | 11/26/2009

Ah, Thanksgiving. It's that time year we express gratitude for the things in life we so frequently take for granted... life, health, family, friends and food to name a few. But on this Thanksgiving Day 2009, we are adding to the list William S. Burroughs' twistedly cynical Thanksgiving video directed by Gus Van Sant in 1986. It goes down smoother than a giblet gravy milkshake.

Every Day Will Be Like A Holiday

My first two song choices for today, Thanksgiving Day, were: 1) John Lennon’s “Cold Turkey” and 2) William S. Burroughs’ “A Thanksgiving Day Prayer.” Lennon’s was ruled out due to the fact that his “people” do not allow any streaming of his music, so we’d only be able to give you a :30 second sample [...]

William S. Burroughs and Jack Kerouac wrote alternating chapters in 1944 in what's being billed as crime fiction.

MTV’s Buzz: fantastically forward-thinking TV from 1990

Click World News (Free subscription) | 11/19/2009

In 1990, MTV aired a groundbreaking TV documentary series called Buzz. Created and directed by Mark Pellington (Mothman Prophecies, Pearl Jam's "Jeremy" video) in partnership with MTV Europe, Buzz was a fantastic experiment in non-linearity and cut-up that drew heavily from -- and presented -- avant-garde art, underground cinema, early cyberpunk, industrial culture, appropriation/sampling,...

DOWNLOADS: (33) PLAYS: (225) Watching Sarah Palin being interviewed is always a little like watching an incoherent art-student film or something from a William S. Burroughs fantasy. It obviously comes from a completely different planet in a different quadrant of the universe.
