Zizek on Crossdressing to the sound of Music, 2010 and Sound of Music/ Antwerp Station, 2009
As for the first video with Zizek, I couldn't really make out what he was saying, but thankfully there was some text and of his talk on Nazis pretending to be Jews so they can get to the same amount of power. Which I think isn't a bad idea since I do believe that Hitler's mother was a Jew, and that would make him a Jew, but that would mean that he's trying to be a Jew as a Nazi as a Jew....
The second video of the dancers in the Antwerp Station was very amusing but in a way it was like the first video and not because it had to do with the Sound of Music. If anything I think it has to do with the idea of pretending and being something you're not, as these people were just dancing to a song from the Sound of Music at a station in Antwerp which to me is random and out of context.....
But I guess in a way I do this with my own art as I pretend to be another person and submerge myself in Japanese culture......
