Pirates: William Burroughs in London (1982)

Directed by Genesis P-Orridge, Antony Balch

· 15m

William S. Burroughs' disembodied statement "Boys, school showers, and swimming pools," repeats over and over again. The footage is tinted blue and orange, and features intercut scenes of the writer walking through the streets. The video culminates in final remarks by Burroughs, as the incessant audio fades into piano music.
