i got the call two days before it all went down
can i show a film … we need content
it is always a last minute shit show with D4Y
that’s why they are so truly underground
the soiree was in a squat
off the back of the butte montmartre
there was a dj
some art on the walls
short films showing
a place you could paint what you wanted
personally i was feeling art brut
the epheremeral energy was there
master of ceremonies
the one an only JP was serving up the love
french militants against the walls saying
people
they are just people
nothing interesting
conversations were all faux arguments
street theater of the bored
it was so french it hurt
god bess
if you don’t know about D4Y
it is a collective of artist
centering around a tv channel of sorts
that has a cracked view of french politics
and a deep and abiding love of getting high
there are shots of them at political rallies
rolling joints and going on stage
needless to say
there was no shortage of skunkiness at the party
left me stumbling for last metro
thinking the town needs more burritos
