Why do the titles for this hyper-dramatic Schama TV series look like an early 2000s trance record?

Ed Luker on Caspar Heinemann's show at Studio Voltaire, London. A show I really need to see. Caspar was always good & it will be great to see what form the art now takes. I haven't seen any since his degree show and am very curious about this area of material investigation.

I log in to Bluesky like an ageing hustler remembering the good old days. Taking a drag on my cigarette, I reminisce about my 2.5k Twitter followers, the past 10k+ likes, all the ease of days gone, and walk back out the door.
huge “we’re gonna make it” vibes with the London sunshine today after a week of pure grey — people look near delirious
Derek Jarman was writing this in 1989. Swap the clothes shops for American candy stores and Wingstops and how much of this has changed – and that line:
“How can you describe what has been lost to those who’ve never known different?”
Massive W for Andrea Long Chu
you also would’ve thought the fascists were losers in 1934 too — the point is a fundamentally cynical and mistrustful culture makes it hard to build solidarity
quite beautiful, in an era where earnestness is hard to do, that lots of the tributes are “David Lynch taught me that it was okay to be weird.”
A.I. could never reproduce the feeling of a David Lynch movie
Something very Lynchian about David Lynch dying from a smoking related illness in the immediate aftermath of wildfires in his Californian landscape. There’s an analogy, smoke / fire, a symbolic shape, but no firm correlation — a kind of poetic thought.
David Lynch (rest in peace): today i was thinking about the song fade into you by mazzy star from the year 1994.

"The poet listens intently, tries to bring the future closer while carrying the voices of the lost and martyred with her."

It’s Gary Indian’s personal library that has been destroyed. His papers are still on the east coast, thankfully.
Powerful front page from L'Humanité on Jean Marie Le Pen: 'His Profession Was Hatred'. The dagger pictured was recovered at the scene of the brutal torture and murder of Ahmed Moulay in Algiers in 1957. One of multiple pieces of evidence showing Le Pen was a torturer.
I’ve just realised that Burroughs’s title is intended to also be read NUKED LAUNCH:
the vibes are off in the state of Denmark
