I've been going through old photo
albums, hard drives, notebooks,
CDRs, and cassettes. I've also been
writing more in longhand than I have
in many years. Some of it is quite
painful (I'm embarrassed for myself),
and other bits have been a delight.
I'm not very methodical and I don't
know where it's leading--I'm just going
with whatever catches my ear & eye.
The video here combines an improv
tune from weekly 4Shadows
jam with
some corporate meat propaganda
gleaned from the Prelinger
Archives.
The meat back then looked pretty good
and I doubt that any big packer today
would open its plant to public tours as Hormel
did at the time of this film (1965).
In a
related film made in 1964 by the FDA,
I was surprised to learn that back then no antibiotics were allowed in federally
inspected meat. Times have changed.
