Perception of Beauty - Shock Art (2014)

An art documentary by Adam Miller.
The filmmaker explains the socio-political role of shock art in modern culture. He talks about expressionism, surrealism, internet freedom and hipsters. When he talks about these things, he also explains how they help the ruling elite of America and the world to further their agenda of control.
FUCKING BRILLIANT!!!! This guy knows what's going on! The information is clearly presented with references cited and examples shown. The video is full of eye-catching images and the audio has appropriate music with audible dialogue. I really liked the voiceover about the vapidity of hipster culture and them jumping on their fixies. Another thing that caught my attention was the mention of Jackson Pollock working for the CIA. He discusses desensitization through repeated viewing of horrific scenes very effectively by using the example of shock art. I rate this best and recommend that anyone who is interested to watch it because it's on youtube.
