David Lynch, conjurer of the uncanny, dies at 78 – Hyperallergic

Lynch’s performance as Cole doesn’t feel too different from the persona he carried in his public appearances, his often-viral tweets, or his prolific YouTube channel (on which he, among other things, continued his practice of delivering weather reports). His nasal voice and halting manner of speaking made him instantly identifiable and endearing to many, elevating him to living meme status in his latter years. He was one of the few creative individuals who seemed like he could have stepped out of one of his own works (or as Dennis Lim put it, a man from another place). The world is a little less strange now without him, and poorer for it.
