>Q: WE HEAR YOU’RE NOT THAT KEEN ON TECHNOLOGY... >A: I don’t have an internet connection, or a mobile phone, or a TV signal. I can play [digital] music on the television, or on the computer I suppose, but I don’t. I am pretty much cut off from the 21st century. It’s like culturally I’m trying to establish a kind of sensory deprivation tank for myself, whereby I am receiving no modern signals whatsoever, because I’ve heard that after a while in a sensory deprivation tank you start to hallucinate and have all sorts of strange experiences, so I’m waiting for that to happen.
>Q: HOW DO YOU MANAGE WITHOUT THE INTERNET? >A: It seems to work. I am pretty much cut off from the majority of the 21st century, but not much escapes me. You hear about everything, because you’re talking to people, you’re absorbing a lot of this information as if by osmosis, just through the pores of your skin. I have said that by embracing the internet in the way that it has done, which was kind of inevitable, society has embarked on a massive experiment without having any idea of the various ways in which those technologies will impact upon us socially, politically and psychologically. So I so think if there’s this huge experiment going on, it’s best that I remain outside the petri dish, as a kind of control, so that we’ll be able to see how badly the rest of you have mutated, by comparing you with me as a kind of baseline. >>>interview with Alan Moore
>You hear about everything, because you’re talking to people, you’re absorbing a lot of this information as if by osmosis This is pretty stupid. He has some points, but that's a really bad way to get "information." Wonder if he's ever written to Kaczynski.
He might not even know kachinsk existed. Or justin bieber
Lucas Perez
He's Alan Moore, he's read every weirdo worth reading.
Noah Rogers
Alan Moore is on of the most insufferable pseud attention whores of all time He’s written like two interesting things and constantly gripes about how it’s made him too famous and well respected and how hard it is to be a totally misunderstood pedophile who pushes new wave occultism
Jason Jones
IMO he's written more than just two good things but how's he a pedophile?
Evan Myers
Jerusalem sucks
Isaiah Thomas
lost girls, also his ex-wife said something on the way out about him being one
Jeremiah Fisher
but the fictional characters are adults in lost girls
Joshua Cook
they're drawings of childrens fairy tales characters fucking themselves. even if there was disclaimer saying they were all actually forty it still smacks of the work of a pedo
Jack Wilson
is he also a murderer for writing so much death?
Parker Davis
they're drawings of adult fictional characters fucking themselves. whats the issue here?
Jayden Barnes
I would totally not be surprised if someone said Alan Moore was into murdering people and drinking their blood or some shit
Ayden Peterson
the issue is they are childrens characters it's similar (not the same, but similar) to when people put make cartoon mascots for liquor and cigarettes
Hunter Lee
I like Moore a lot so I'll wait until we get a more solid confirmation than knee-jerk reddit hearsay from some spazzoid who probably thinks the striptease in Promethea was meant to be pornographic
Watchmen, From Hell, Miracle Man, Promethea, Swamp Thing, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting
why do you clowns come here and post your dogshit opinions?
Cooper Rivera
>the issue is they are childrens characters Not in this story they aren't. >it's similar (not the same, but similar) to when people put make cartoon mascots for liquor and cigarettes ??? okay
Colton Morales
>Not in this story they aren't I cannot not hear this in the same tone of voice as "not right now you don't" so good job on that one >???okay what a response10/10
David Wilson
they're not chidren's characters in this story. why are you an obnoxious prude?
Easton Morgan
because they ae still childrens characters if the argument is the story can exist in it's one vacuous realm without any external connections it is belied by the very fact that moore intentionally uses famous fable characters. it's decidedly NOT some innocuous little tale about a couple of horny thots, it's a jab at ones 'prudish sensibilities' and I'm simply telling you that I don't think it's 'prudish' to take the confusion of child-rearing culture with outlandish sexuality in the artistic sense as trite and frankly a little alarming
Jeremiah Reed
have you read it? what is it about? is there a point to the sex?
Dylan Phillips
I believe Alan Moore himself was pornography so whatcha gonna do about it, faggot?
Lucas Carter
I read it when I was in junior high and thought I was edgy as fuck and literally don't remeber anything except dorothy fingering herself
NANI?!
Blake Johnson
said it was pornography*
Aiden Bell
basically it interprets the girls' respective stories as a metaphor to their sexual awakening, in a "this is how they made sense of it since they were too young to really grasp what was happening"
Cooper Barnes
>I’m glad that the modern protest movement, which I greatly admire for the most part, has found something of use in something I did 30 years ago.
I could have agreed on the pedophile pushing new age occultism thing (one too many of his comics have a relationship between a monster and a young girl) but the "like two interesting things" was too obvious
Eli Allen
>fictional characters where once underage and are depicted as adults having sex Wtf? >and no penises were involved! AAAA HAHAHA
Wiggy artist talk, yeah.
Tyler Bailey
another insipid projection of small mindset, great to see you're as consistent as you are narcissistic
