Thank you for the shiny new thread and title ❤
Not watched the video, but regarding the presentation of the beads - in India, we usually have them sitting/displayed in a nicely-decorated platter. The 'mala' (necklace or string of beads/flowers etc) is then placed gently around the neck of the person to be honoured. This is usually accompanied by applying 'tikka' (a mark made with usually saffron and rice, or vermillion and rice) and sometimes offering a sweet, and sometimes by also by tying a sacred thread around the person's wrist.
Even if the people welcoming the Gruesomes don't have such elaborate rituals (I'm they would take a lot of pride in presenting their gifts very nicely), just pulling stuff out of plastic bags is pretty much a universal signal
Still no new art to share, but I did capture this on Wednesday night. I call it "Heavens when the Gruesomes Pretend to be Innocent".
