I am so confused I don’t even know where to begin. We did a little digging and it led to the creators of this fascination/weird piece “Borscht Corporation.” The explanation for the Bosh video is one which I am not smart enough to understand. THEY ALSO CALLED HIM “CHRISTOPHER!!”
“Adventures of Christopher Bosh in the Multiverse” is the first film by mysterious Miami creators Bleeding Palm. Although Bleeding Palm has been creating work for many years under other names like Lucha Workshop, they didn’t come to my attention until I saw their “live event” photography. A slideshow that began with the typically boozy portraits of Churchills denizens progressed to include subtly surreal elements such as misplaced or disproportioned body parts which gave way to obvious manipulations like the excellent band Holly Hunt sprouting new facial hair and traveling through space. The arc of the slideshow ended with both the crowd and the band abstracted and animated into a Gif orgy of geometric shapes, disconnected breasts bouncing through it all. More than being a clever take on the staid party photo slideshow format, the manipulated images somehow felt more like the event they were portraying than the literal, unaltered photos.
You can read the rest and have your mind blown HERE. I’m just going to do the smart thing and leave this one alone.
