Alice in the Cities (Alice in den Städten) is for instant-photo lovers; SX-70 plays supporting actress and a photo-booth makes a cameo. A non-holiday feel good movie from the 70's, and my new fave.

“I lived in Cobble Hill for 20 years. I had a rent-stabilized apartment. But I got tired of the city. I got tired of the crowds, and the people bumping into you, and nobody saying ‘Excuse me.’ So I had the idea to move to Atlanta and try to open a café. My friends said: ‘Don’t do it. You’ll regret losing the apartment.’ But I was feeling adventurous. I was tired of New York. I knew I made a mistake the first day I was there. I didn’t have a car. I had to walk a mile to Trader Joe’s. There were no cabs anywhere. No fucking cabs. What the fuck? And the hills! So many hills! And the movie I wanted to see was two counties away. Two counties! I don’t even want to talk about laundry day. I missed being able to get everything I needed on my block. I missed the sidewalks, and the tall buildings, and the half-priced Broadway tickets, and the restaurants. I can take the crowds now. I can handle it. But I lost my apartment! I don’t know where to live. An apartment that size is going to cost me twice as much now. I can only afford a room. I should have listened to my friends. Oh man, I messed up.”

This Exhibition Sees Our Ties to Data, Reveals the Future Is Now — Vantage

Pioneering, nerve-wracking and essential, DATA RUSH — unlike the powers and infrastructures upon which it sheds light — …

DATA RUSH, a show at the Noorderlicht Photofestival, is a conversation that needs to be heard by all. While reviewing a range of artist's work, this in-depth article helps reveal the issues we knowingly and unknowingly face with digital media and the internet. Contemporary topics of media and its use are discussed while the medium itself is executed by all artist’s in unique ways. Surveillance, on many levels, seems to be the revealing theme. Excited to spend more time exploring these artist’s works.

In the 1930s the National Park Service created silent films, hand-tinted and toned with vibrant color, to promote outdoor oases to American travelers. Recently, the US National Archives shared a couple of examples on YouTube, including “Seeing Yosemite from a Saddle” from 1932 that follows a horseback tour of California’s Sierra Nevada mountains, and a 1934 film of travelogues on Glacier National Park in Montana, and California’s Lassen Volcanic National Park and Sequoia National Park.
