Okay, I figured as much about the baby and breaking the parental bonds to forge out on your own, but I figure there's more to the whole bowing thing and the ear. I mean it looks like he's praying towards Mecca, so then I started racking my brain to try and find some religious significance of an ear in Islam and, well, I think I'm just overthinking it at this point... |

Yeah. I would say the religious thing would be getting too deep. I think he's crawling more. Like reverting back into a childlike state. Unless the red thread signifies that religion Madonna invented, er, I mean, completely commercialized and bastardized. Haha. |

So, um. Do I get a secret surprise in the mail, or what? Haha. |

It's the new indie dance craze in denmark, all the cool kids are doing it, this video is a 2d representation thereof.get back in the fridge, dad. |



A couple have a baby via surrealist sexual methods. The kid then grows up and his parent's pass on their knowledge to them (when they shake, lose form) then he cuts him self off from them going for his independence and eventually his parent's pass on or are no longer around him. The child, now a man, is on his own and is trying to find what it is most people try to find in the world. The ear represents the many ways in which we "hear" things from others and absorb things culturally in order to find it is what our "calling" is or whatever you want to call it. And at the end he finds it. Basically it's a surrealist approach to the very standard coming of age story. You know, when artists make things more interesting and complicated then they have to be. Eh?
