movie synopsis : David Lynch peeks behind the picket fences of small-town America to reveal a corrupt shadow world of malevolence, sadism, and madness. From the opening shots Lynch turns the Technicolor picture postcard images of middle class homes and tree-lined lanes into a dreamy vision on the edge of nightmare. After his father collapses in a preternaturally eerie sequence, college boy Kyle MacLachlan returns home and stumbles across a severed human ear in a vacant lot. With the help of sweetly innocent high school girl (Laura Dern), he turns junior detective and uncovers a frightening yet darkly compelling world of voyeurism and sex. Drawn deeper into the brutal world of drug dealer and blackmailer Frank, played with raving mania by an obscenity-shouting Dennis Hopper in a career-reviving performance, he loses his innocence and his moral bearings when confronted with pure, unexplainable evil. Isabella Rossellini is terrifyingly desperate as Hopper's sexual slave who becomes MacLachlan's illicit lover, and Dean Stockwell purrs through his role as Hopper's oh-so-suave buddy. Lynch strips his surreally mundane sets to a ghostly austerity, which composer Angelo Badalamenti encourages with the smooth, spooky strains of a lush score. Blue Velvet is a disturbing film that delves into the darkest reaches of psycho-sexual brutality and simply isn't for everyone. But for a viewer who wants to see the cinematic world rocked off its foundations, David Lynch delivers a nightmarish masterpiece. --Sean Axmaker

She wore blue velvet
Bluer than velvet was the night
Softer than satin was the light
From the stars
She wore blue velvet
Bluer than velvet were her eyes
Warmer than May, her tender sighs
Love was ours
Ours, a love I held tightly
Feeling the rapture grow
Like a flame burning brightly
But when she left gone was the glow of
Blue velvet
But in my heart there'll always be
Precious and warm a memory through the years
And I still can see blue velvet through my tears
She wore blue velvet
But in my heart there'll always be
Precious and warm a memory through the years
And I still can see blue velvet through my tears
could even have the cover of the publication blue satin and then the back cover blue velvet - as in materials they get from lighter to heavier - suggesting how my publication travels through lighter to heavier topics revolving sex
need to speak to book binding to see if this is possible - and wether I can emboss a title in the material - I'm not too sure for the satin
lighter to darker - velvet to satin
could create a blender piece as this is something you can easily add texture ( blue velvet ) and light ( flame burning brightly ) - not sure what shape I would do - maybe a candle - as this is signifying the darker and heavier turn my publication is taking at this point - then reference Franks " Now its dark baby "_ almost preparing the reader for what's about to come
I want to provide a barcode that you can scan to make the publication interactive even when your not using artivive. Where it plays blue velvet the song and then Lana Del rays modern cover. I want Lana's to be at the start of the publication possibly when it is lighter and then have Bobby's version when the publication gets darker

I really like the combination of 3d and 2d elements. This is what I did with the cover videos of this website and Ive done in my practise for some time now. I think thdhis combination of digital mediums will present itself very well within the augmented reality and also physically printed. So I am excited to experiment into this
I created some rough plans and initial ideas for the ten double page spreads based off the quotes from the movie and the song above.
These go through the pages of the publication - of the ideas that will be within the moving visuals and then providing a colour scheme above the screenshot of the quote - showing how the colour scheme follows the lighter to darker sex theme throughout the publication.
have handwritten text into these spreads
and the spreads below - similar to publications examples I showed earlier - brings a gentler, more intimate element to the text - to represent the softer, more intimate approach to sex the publication is showing in the early spreads
