Director

Coum Transmissions

Year

1974

Soundtracked by members of COUM, Chris Carter, and John Lacey. Presents footage punctuated by separate actions by Genesis P-Orridge and Cosey Fanni Tutti. Similar to Coumdensation Mucus, the rituals conducted in Music for Starecase and Stocking Top approach human sexuality with a sense of innocence and discovery. P-Orridge, donning a schoolgirl's dress, sodomizes h/erself with a dildo, which s/he then offers as tribute on a self-made altar. Tutti swings, and crunches numbers at a cash register.
