David Lynch opens our collection with a few words of his own. "Ideas are like fish. If you want to catch little fish, you can stay in the shallow water. But if you want to catch the big fish, you've got to go deeper." In film, in music, in meditation, in life: this is true.

What do we find in the deep water? We find scenes as in Mulholland Drive, with Rebekah Del Rio's "Llorando" piercing walls of stone and heart muscle, the song continuing in the air after the singer has fallen unconscious. This is as it is with the films of David Lynch: the song and its meanings continue in your head long after the flickering light of the projector has fallen dim.

Lynch has created some of the most memorable visual songs we'll ever see on a film screen: the lovely, the horrifying, the deeply disturbing, the consoling, the existentially echoing, the puzzling: all of them pulling us back into the deep water, all urging us to once again peer into the dark, to see what it is that's been brushing against our leg all this time, down there, just out of conscious sight.
