Michael J. Anderson cuts into an object made from this material in a scene from Industrial Symphony No. 1. A radio announcer says "There's a whole lot of [this stuff] waiting out there... so let's get going" in a broadcast which constantly mentions this stuff, which immediately follows a scene ending with a cacophonous shot of bugs crawling in the grass. A town named after this stuff is home to characters nicknamed the Well-Dressed Man and the Yellow Man, and is where a severed (*) ear is found by Jeffrey Beaumont in Blue Velvet. Catherine E. Coulson              played a woman who always carries around a piece of this stuff and claims to have a psychic connection with it on a TV series in which Ben Horne plans to burn down a mill for processing this material. For 10 points, name this material which, on that TV show, is the basis of the economy of the town of Twin Peaks.
