I have to say that since i started watching VICE I have had another look on the world. I can now see alot of things my friends and family dont. You have given me the power to think about things i normally wouldn't. Thank you, Everyone on the vice crew!
Vice puts some videos up that I would usually not watch or be interested in. I have watched the last couple videos they put up and to be honest I get very intrigued in them and enjoy them very much. Thanks Vice!
i love vice'es stuff there documentaries are raw real life shit ya'll find the best topics its like there in my head pulling out shit i would buy/rent to watch keep the awesome shit coming vice
He doesn't like information shot strait into his eye ! Get it ? Not everyone has to think like you. You have to accept it. I just like him because he is thinking out of the box.
I recommend this BBC show; imagine..., Summer 2012, Glasgow: The Grit and the Glamour. If you enjoyed this vid, it explores how Glasgow has become known for Turner Prize-winning artists. Douglas features in it as well as several other Glasgow artists.
If you actually listened to what the guy said, or at least what I thought he said was along these lines. The Last few films HAVE been his and feels slightly embarrassed about that fact in front of students. How often do you guys go the the 'CINEMA' ? He found inspiration in two films he saw at quite a late age in life, 26-28. Taxi Driver and sorry I can't remember the other. There is story including between the frames; each has or possibly has new meaning. See Zidane example of work...
i figured something out. if you wear skinny jeans, grow a mustache, rent a big, white loft space and say with a straight face, "That pile of old G.I. Joes in the corner is a $5000 piece of art." people WILL buy into it. Also you cant smile. Ever.
I'm on my last free 4 years and i have a project on video installation and this was terrible but i learnt about how to talk good bullshit so thanks again Vice
Quality over quantity, please. As the comments and ratings on your "Trolling celebs" videos showed you how bad those were. I subscribed to you ppl after seeing several of your older full length docus. That was the most interesting stuff!
And once your art is made your peers outside the art realm then ask you "so how do you pay your rent with this?". As if to imply that either you live for free on hand outs, or that somehow you have compromised your art by maintaining a steady career. Most art comes from inspiration and the freedom to let your expressions flow freely. On the one hand if life is too easy no grit to the expression, yet too hard and most would say why bother. It is a fight that most often cannot be won.
True, yes. It probably cannot be won, except in some vastly rare circumstances. (Basquiat, say. Or a David Choe) But it's a personal commandment to fight anyway, even though you're more likely to end up with the last words of Van Gogh on your lips, (Google them). Or worse even, since he was vindicated after death. Just total oblivion, forgotten by everyone forever. I'll absorb the toil of day-jobs, a prayer of humility, if I can make art too. Good luck, Eddie, in your version of same.
Wait, its okay to show piles of dead children and how to explicitly produce and take heroin, but if you show an adidas logo... God have mercy on your soul. The first amendment is weird..
Please someone tell me what perverse obscenity could possibly be on this guys shirt that it would require vice to blur it out. I could barely follow the interview this blur was so distracting I didn't know if he was giving the finger or doing something even more obscene with his hand.
It's such a depressing slog to discover that you are an artist. And you do, you don't choose to be one. It's awful. You're going to labour your whole life on illusions you can't release. Everyone, EVERYONE, will pile scorn and abuse on you and the things you make. But, there's almost no reward in it to begin with, so, they can't remove the reward from it, they can't take away the incentive to make. Maybe making art that doesn't sell is indefensible in a world where profit is all. Money is all.
This is the most pretentious thing I have ever seen. Art needs a purpose, all good films have something to say about an issue or idea relevant to real life, lots of good painting also do this, or they invoke a strong emotional response. Making a film about you finger fucking your hand and calling it 'Blue' to be risque is just stupid and pretentious. I can see why this guy never went to the cinema, not edgy enough for him, they might actually have a relevant message.

Thanks for watching!
Feature Film is wonderful! I just saw it yesterday in Berlin. Beautiful and fantastic! Thank you for this video.

This seems more about portraiture than installation. Good vid regardless, thanks Vice. Keep em comin'
He's awesome, love his studio!

truly beautiful...
"This guy" is a world famous conceptual artist. He's not a trainwreck or crazy. You need to broaden your horizons
great interview.

"Are Friends Electric?" - Gary Numan !!!
I was humming the bass portion, not knowing what it was until you said it brother.
Thank u. It was driving me mental to not figure it out
thank you
Would love to see the storyboard run through he's describing & film results form the Prado!! ::))
vice is dangerously close to me saying goodbye forever
So good
4:33
Probably the most artistic part of this guy's entire portfolio.
wow douglas gordon is famous. you re genius vice.
that was awesome
Start @ 11:55 and listen.
i figured something out. if you wear skinny jeans, grow a mustache, rent a big, white loft space and say with a straight face, "That pile of old G.I. Joes in the corner is a $5000 piece of art." people WILL buy into it.
Also you cant smile. Ever.
Please more of the anarchy cookbook!
Inspirational. Thanks for sharing. Just about to start an abstract video project on mass surveillance
I'm on my last free 4 years and i have a project on video installation and this was terrible but i learnt about how to talk good bullshit so thanks again Vice
Is the piano song 'are friends electric?' ? 🤔
yes
I split this one video into 4 short films. I get it now, used my toilet as a story board.
I used to be friends with this guy at primary school,,,, Hey Dougie, how ya doing ?
Love Gary Newman!
Chuck knows all
The blurred part of his shirt is the logo of a company that didn't want to be associated with this guy and/or this documentary
Tell him to change shirts before the interview instead of blurring half the picture
Quality over quantity, please. As the comments and ratings on your "Trolling celebs" videos showed you how bad those were.

It's only January. I assume they're now wrapping up/continuing work they started before the holidays.
One advantage of digital is that you can easily blur random shit out. Seriously
Sounds like? You're reading my written words, there's no noise involved.
indeed
I have a pocketful of sunshine.
Hi Vice, i Have a question. How can I put my documentary in your channel?
What's blurred out on his shirt?
Whats a matter, never heard of "Art for arts sake?"
I just taught myself that lil bit from the beginning on the piano. does it have a name?
Tubeway Army / Gary Numan - Are 'friends' electric? great band, very influential
:D thanks
Aha! It's him who's got all the DMT..;)
What if I watch a streaming video of Doug's films is that okay with him?
Gary Numan at the start :D

He goes from humble to super pretentious in one second
some kind of stussy logo. look at the sleeve. its got the original logo on it.
I could have made that Zidane movie for 50 bucks...

probably a name brand that Vice doesn't have rights to broadcast
name of the piano piece please! :)
Are Friends Electric by Gary Numan and the Tubeway Army
song name at 9:45
hahaha his name is Douglas! hah what a putz
Wait, its okay to show piles of dead children and how to explicitly produce and take heroin, but if you show an adidas logo...
God have mercy on your soul.
The first amendment is weird..
Love not showing it!
the blended out the print on his shirt? really? has it really come to this??? WTF???
WTF is this guy's deal with hand gestures?
I am guessing it was a logo. Most people try to hide logos because they could get sued. It is very un-likely but better safe then sorry :)
What the fuck is on his shirt
word
unpossible*
this fool has the same name as me !
although you can do better keep them vids uploading
Please someone tell me what perverse obscenity could possibly be on this guys shirt that it would require vice to blur it out. I could barely follow the interview this blur was so distracting I didn't know if he was giving the finger or doing something even more obscene with his hand.
GO TO MALI
"PEPSI"
Is that a La Fin Absolue du Monde poster in the back? /watch?v=PD4C3wRiMCk
En mexico que si trabajamos equipo. Este es mucho mejor que sea idividual no abansa

its a stussy shirt
This guy is so freaking weird. I swear, everyone in Vice is either on mushrooms, or this is one of those "trainwreck" pieces, "look at the crazy man".
What are you? 12?
Possible if siamese twin, morbidly obese, or Chuck Norris.
lol blue wtf
mmmmm
Are you implying he has ovaries?
Douglas Gordon ist so ein toller Künstler! Habe einige seiner Bücher vom Kerber Verlag www.kerberverlag.com/
Sounds like you're on mushrooms...
so is what you see as bad art ;)
a penis
What you see as good art is irrelevant.
I'm not impressed
Booooooring!

Disgusting and cruel. Not art.
so basically it is warhol
No, thank you for creating!
