Recorded Saturday May 9th, 2009 at the "Cité de la Musique" in Paris. Concert for the 20th birthday of the great electronic music label "Warp Records". Beginning of the concert, featuring the satirical French magazine Hara-Kiri.
Hara-kiri or seppuku The seppuku or hara-kiri is the term used to describe a Japanese ritual suicide by unraveling. Known to the act of seppuku, also, as hara-kiri. In Japanese 'hara-kiri' is not commonly used, as such term is considered vulgar and grotesque. Was common among the samurai, who considered his life as a surrender to the honor of dying gloriously, rejecting any kind of natural death. So, before you see your life dishonored by a crime or offense, resorting to this act to be death (as those words mean, Hara-kiri "belly cut"). The practice of forcing death by seppuku by order of a master is known as oibara or junshi, the ritual is similar. Avoid dishonor For the samurai, death meant a matter of honor, and death by old age and natural causes was not desirable. As the ancient Greeks believed, a noble death, and violence was an early sign of predilection of the gods, her ideal was "To live and die beautifully so beautiful." Hence the adoption of the cherry blossom as an emblem of the Samurai ... beautiful and ephemeral. A day in full bloom, the next day killed by the storm. "To live happy forever" was a completely alien concept and still in modern Japanese literature. However, deliberately seeking the death was a sign of cowardice and escapism. A remarkable man live their lives in a noble manner as possible and only in certain prescribed circumstances may decide to Hara-kiri or seppuku (which literally means "belly cut") as an honorable escape. These circumstances ...
Slightly edited version of the 'Lin Kuei Ninja breaks his own neck' video.
Directed by: Masaki Kobayashi Contry: Japan Peace in 17th-century Japan causes the Shogunate's breakup of warrior clans, throwing thousands of samurai out of work and into poverty. An honorable end to such fate under the samurai code is ritual suicide, or hara-kiri (self-inflicted disembowelment). An elder warrior, Hanshiro Tsugumo (Tatsuya Nakadai) seeks admittance to the house of a feudal lord to commit the act. There, he learns of the fate of his son-in-law, a young samurai who sought work at the house but was instead barbarically forced to commit traditional hara-kiri in an excruciating manner with a dull bamboo blade. In flashbacks the samurai tells the tragic story of his son-in-law, and how he was forced to sell his real sword to support his sick wife and child. Tsugumo thus sets in motion a tense showdown of revenge against the house
