THE SPECTACULAR HIGHLANDERS OF NEW GUINEA, SOUTH PACIFIC
ORNAMENTATION FOR LOVE, WAR AND WEALTH
Locked in Stone Age isolation until a generation ago, they were discovered beyond the massive walls that cut through New Guinea.
Here in one of the untouched edens of the world, every village has its dancing park for sing sings, every villager his badge of decoration for festivals of initiation, courting and pig killings.
ADORNMENT: FOR GODS, FOR LOVE,FOR WAR
FANTASTIC BIRDMAN OF OLTOKANE VILLAGE
Clay face painted red under a weeded wig, this Chimbu man wears a cloak of dark tangat leaves resembling black cockatoo feathers that are almost as prized as those of the bird of paradise. Mystically involved with birds, Highlanders imitate their calls and postures in courting songs and dancing-ground ceremonies.
MENACING ASARO MUD MEN
Fiercely disguised by grey mud and masks sculpted over cane frames with pig tusks and animal or human teeth, these Asaro warriors commemorate a victorious battle of their ancestors who, driven into the Asoro River by an enemy tribe, emerged so demonically mud-covered that their attackers, thinking them evil spirits, fled.
CHIMU WOMEN MOURNING A DEAD WARRIOR
Death extracts a drastic change in appearance from these lamenting women of Wandi who trade the splendour of bright paint for sombre clay and dress in jute string and withered leaves.
Dried grass replaces nose ornaments and shell necklaces are discarded for mourning beads, called Job's Tears.
POWERFUL HEADMAN OF THE ANDAGALIMP LINE
MOGE CLAN LEADER IN HIS WIG OF HUMAN HAIR SYMBOLIZING WEALTH
The fairgrounds boil with a pageantry of people, jewelled in grass seeds and pearl shell, armed with bows and arrows. Bodies greased with pig fat, faces often menacing with ochre, mud, and nose tusks, almost all Highlanders wear on their heads jungles of tall, torch-flaring plumes of the bird of paradise.

“One of Hollywood’s livest wires, married Tarzan, Johnny Weissmuller in 1933, and after their divorce, went through a small army of lovers. Her career hit the skids. In 1944, deeply in debt and pregnant by her most recent lover, Lupe staged her last night on earth with care. She ordered a huge mass of flowers, invited her girlfriends for a Last Supper, and then, at 3:00 A.M., alone in her bedroom chock-a-block with gardenias and tuberoses, gowned in silver lame Lupe penciled a farewell note to the father of her fetus. Swallowing seventy-five Seconal, she lay down on the bed, hands clasped in prayer for her final pose. The Seconal did not go down well and Lupe left behind a trail of vomit from the bed to the bathroom where she was later found having plunged headfirst into the toilet after slipping on the bathroom tiles.

JAMES DEAN
“During production of Rebel Without a Cause, James Dean was host to a thriving colony of crabs. Director Nicholas Ray, amazed at his stars unconversance in such manners, dragged Dean off to a Burbank drugstore and treated him to a bottle of pungent crabocide. Dean had taken to hanging out at the Club, an east Hollywood leather bar. The predatory night crawler, who dug anonymous sex, had recently discovered the magic world of S and M. He had gotten into beating, boots, belts, and bondage scenes. Regulars at the Club tagged him with the single moniker: the Human Ashtray. When stoned, he would bare his chest and beg his masters to stub out their butts on it. After his fatal car crash, the coroner made note of the ‘” constellation of keratoid scars”’ on Jimmy’s torso.”
