Doom Generation








From the opening credit sequence of Doom Generation.  Araki likely intended this footage of a mosh pit under strobe lights to conjure the chaotic, inarticulate violence of the youth culture he would then broadly satirize.  In doing so he inadvertently captured a swatch of pretty abstractions.

Note:  the film was not very good.  I wouldn't recommend it.
