LELE SAVERI – INCUBI et SUCCUBI
I heard Lele has a new book coming out. It should be pretty interesting just based on what he shows on his blog of Blackberry photos. Every day observations grabbed with his phone. It’s not so important that it is his phone, but it does allow for instant uploading so that way you can stick with his vision all day, every day. So this is where the book comes in, now we have a chance to see in depth what he sees and thinks about. It is a fictional documentary, yes, a contradiction in terms. But this is the closest i can come to guessing to describing it. And the phone photos are great but here we are dealing with film, the real thing. His unique vision will shine through here, a hybrid of reality and fantasy. I am stoked I know him and gave him some of my books, cause now he will have to give me this one. If not I’ll just rack it.
-Ari Marcopolous
“So men (they say) by hell’s delusions led,
Have ta’en a succubus to their bed;
Believe it fair, and themselves happy call,
Till the cleft foot discovers all:
Then they start from ‘t, half ghosts
themselves with fear;
And devil, as ‘t is, doth appear.”
Abraham Cowley, The Mistress (1647)
