The Scream - Sebastian Cosor - Safe-Frame.com from Sebastian Cosor on Vimeo.
"I was walking down the road with two friends when the sun set; suddenly, the sky turned as red as blood. I stopped and leaned against the fence, feeling unspeakably tired. Tongues of fire and blood stretched over the bluish black fjord. My friends went on walking, while I lagged behind, shivering with fear. Then I heard the enormous, infinite scream of nature." - Edvard Munch
"Innocent X screams, but he screams behind the curtain, not only as someone who can no longer be seen, but as someone who cannot see, who has nothing left to see, whose only remaining function is to render visible those invisible forces that are making him scream, these powers of the future. This is what is expressed in the phrase "to scream at" -- not to scream before or about but to scream at death -- which suggests this coupling of forces, the perceptible force of the scream and the imperceptible force that makes us scream."
