Don't worry, MB's videos are not suppose to mean anything. They are Da Da-ist art movies with very high cinematic values, that many art movies/videos don't have because of the expense factor$ Visually cool.

Personally, I'm still trying to figure out how to eat Pomegrantes...but thank you for this scene; I'm hoping that this film is on DVD, I'd love to see it, and hear the soundtrack!

@leahceriello You don't sound pompous; thanks for the explination! :)...I've only started to get into Matthew Barney, and while I think the symbol is amazing, it's also amazing trying to firgure out what it means...thanks again! :)

@leahceriello Pretty awesome, actually. It was almost like the jelly was a character in the movie. Thanks for the info!

@venusazaboy no, its definitely petroleum jelly. matthew barney has used petroleum jelly in multiple instances of his performances throughout his career, most famously when he asked richard serra to recreate his molten lead pieces with hot petroleum jelly at the guggenheim for cremaster 3.
art nerd FTW.

@venusazaboy I saw the whole film and it isn't whale blubber!
It is petroleum jelly they loaded onto the deck whilst in port.
Once it reaches a certain temperature it hardens.

I guess no one here has seen the entire film. It was whale blubber the chefs are using.

Oh. They're pomegranites. and the symbol they cut out of the petroleum jelly for dinner and the larger one one deck is the symbol of the cremaster muscle which is a bodily reaction explored in his past films.
sorry if you know this and i sound like a pompous ass.
