Within hours of it's release, youtube has already yanked this video of its site for violent content. Thanks M.I.A, Southpark didn't make being a redhead suck enough.

What a Weirdo (will you be my friend?)

Tim Burton Exhibit at the MoMA

It was my first time at the Museum of Modern Art, so I was unaware of its large volume of tourist on weekends, and decided to go on a Friday. After waiting in line, my friend and I dodged every stroller rolling our way to make it to the second floor to start the exhibit. As you enter the a monsters mouth you become cattle herded into one of two lines. A long hallway lined with flat screens projected dark cartoons, which could either be watched (line one) or walked past (line two). We choose the latter based on the monsters slow digestion of video dwellers. As we reached the exhibition we were immediately overwhelmed by art work. This was good, because it presented a better ratio for the vast amount of people there. The mass amount of work made me feel like Tim himself didn't get a chance to see it all. My interest was always finding a new sketch or painting but the climax of the whole exhibition were Tim's claymation figures. Perched high enough for eyes these models were displayed well and from all angles. I can't say that we stayed for more than 45 minutes, mostly because of the crowds. the demographic of people ranged from hot-topic teens, beatniks, and yuppies which was probably the strangest part. I enjoyed my quick run through of Tim Burton's exhibit and felt that it really shed some light on the darkest corners of his mind. My only advice, go on a weekday.
