Excellent Gen-X exemplar: skater survivalist, Bay Area commune child, absurdist filmmaker Harmony Korine. Made 3 funny appearances on Letterman and was banned backstage before a 4th because he was rifling through Meryl Streep's purse. Makes movies of streaming random evocative and dark images without fixed narratives about subcultures. I have only heard of him today, but he's fascinating. Mainstream critics pillory him but he wins film festival awards and is lauded as a brilliant avant garde original artist. The video thumbnail shows a mashed up picture of him of his 3 appearances on Letterman.
