Goddess of Mercy
Thanks to Scott for twittering me this video “Senju Kannon”. Apparently this was on japanese tv, confusingly I thought it was Thai from the costumes, but the first post says that it’s actually deaf Chinese performers! Pan-asian madness, we bring it to you direct. It’s pretty nutty - reminds in an odd sort of way of Michel Gondry videos, not that it has forced perspective, but that it looks so cool with such an old school technique. There’s a lull about two minutes in, but it starts getting great again 4 minutes in.
