Excited to share some news: We are spending the next month in Mexico City as artists in residence at @ca_sa_lu... and making a new film! We’ve hit the road running, already in the deep trenches of a growing production (more on that soon), but here is a quick note to say a massive thank you to @lupe.quesada @majolona and @ca_sa_lu for welcoming us to this paradise. 📷 @maanik.singh 🙏🏽 (at Tlalpan, Distrito Federal, Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwcxVC3hw1w/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5hfuktnfpxpk

Why do we experience catharsis at the movies? ⠀ ⠀ “What is experienced in such an excess of tragic suffering is something truly common. The spectator recognizes [themselves] and [their] fitness in the face of the power of fate... To see that ‘this is how it is’ is a kind of self-knowledge for the spectator, who emerges with new insight from the illusions [they] live.” ⠀ — Gadamer (via @thecolumbialion) ⠀ ⠀ Scene from Alonso Ruizpalaco’s most excellent debut feature, GÜEROS (2014) ⠀ ⠀ .⠀ ⠀ #Güeros #alonsoruizpalacios #tenochhuerta #ilsesalas #sebastianaguirre #leonardoortizgris⠀ #experimentalfilm #avandgarde #cinematic_imagery #firstdayfirstimage #arthouse #arthousecinema #independentcinema #independentfilm #indiefilm #instacinema #cinemagram #mexicancinema #blackandwhite #blancoynegro

A little video explaining a great page from one of Paulo Freire's most famous books. #PedagogyOfTheOppressed #PauloFriere

“This is not just a Luddite pleasure in the materiality of the book, but also an anxiety about the invisibility of the world of Photoshop, the immateriality of drone warfare, which are obviously connected, of the ease and no cost of transforming the world. There is something about the typed over typescript, about the yellowing Sellotape and roughly cut pages that have been cut and pasted together, which shows in its material form a process of thinking that is tangible—change has to be fought for. This is rendered invisible in the digital format. The cost of change disappears. ⁣⁣ ⁣ ...⁣ ⁣⁣ But what is it to try and resist the algorithm? To say within the inefficiency we need to find a place for ourselves? Because it is not just images and knowledge we are finding, understand that these images are part of who we are. And the images and inefficiencies and the physical weight of the books tie us to the world in a more direct and immediate way than these invisible technologies. ” ⁣⁣ ~ An excellent evening with WK @bklynlibrary #starvethealgorithm⁣⁣ (at Brooklyn Public Library) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrOD45oB93O/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ixwvo405nlt3

Violence should be addressed everywhere. Especially in places that it's acknowledged the least. Must watch.

From that one time, 15 years ago, when SandraD and I first swept ashore as deep-sea, cave dwelling, albino mermaids. I've since lost my fins but Coney Island remains a sacred place for many of us migrant merfolk. 📸 #roberthuber (at Coney Island Beach & Boardwalk)

The condensed history of Hollywood in four and half minutes ;)

Revolution is only possible now

Revolution is only possibly now, not in the future; regeneration is to-day: not to-morrow. If you will experiment with what I have been saying, you will find that there is immediate regeneration, a newness, a quality of freshness; because the mind is always still when it is interested, when it desires or has the intention to understand. The difficulty with most of us is that we have not the intention to understand, because we are afraid of that, if we understood, it might bring about a revolutionary action in our life and therefore we resist. It is the defense mechanism that is at work when we use time or an ideal as a means of gradual transformation. This regeneration is only possible in the present, not in the future, not to-morrow. Those who rely on time as a means through which they can gain happiness or realize truth or God are merely deceiving themselves, they are living in ignorance and therefore in conflict. Those who see that time is not the way out of our difficulty and are therefore free from the false, naturally have the intention to understand; therefore their minds are quiet spontaneously, without compulsion, without practice. When the mind is still, tranquil, not seeking any answer or solution, neither resting nor avoiding — it is only then that there can be a regeneration, because then the mind is capable of perceiving what is true: and it is truth that liberates, not your effort to be free.
