To celebrate the release of Terence Nance‘s acclaimed HBO series Random Acts of Flyness, we thought we’d resurface his fantastic conversation with the inimitable Flying Lotus from last July. Here’s that episode in its entirety; check it out.
On the latest episode of the Talkhouse Podcast, two longtime friends who bridge the worlds of music and film – writer-director Terence Nance, who’s also a musician, and Steve Ellison, widely known as the recording artist Flying Lotus, whose supremely out-there debut feature film Kuso is out now – sit down for a chat. Over the course of their highly entertaining and unpredictable conversation, the pair talks about dick-stabbing, Steve’s traumatic first time getting tested for STDs, the unique mix of crude humor and transcendence in his work, their respective creative struggles, their greatest fears, and much more.
