I’m interested in situations; I’m interested in life itself.

Nevertheless, I do not trust in the appearance of reality as it is showcased to us in mainstream culture. I like to believe that the surface hides deeper clues and essential mechanisms. Like archeologists, we need to dig in order to excavate what lies beneath.

I am interested in unveiling the simulacrum, or appearance, from the situations that I capture or recreate. To do so, I utilize the same resources and codes, as do other filmmakers, yet I also let the images communicate with a language of their own. The clash generates conflict, which hopefully raises questions. In fact, it is this process of forming questions, which takes us forward.

It has been said that with the help of new technologies we can invent a narrative structure that does more than just illustrate reality. Illustrating is what most cinema does, but that is not what I’m interested in. What interests me is fading reality in order to see it in its most absurd and raw shape. This bleaching of reality helps me not just to transform my senses into forms and ideas, but into energy and force.

I experiment with various filmic genres, forms of expression, and styles. My work is evocative of memory fragments, or travel impressions. My work resists categorization—it is not merely film, not merely documentary, not merely art. It is a hybrid poetic form that expresses my interest in socio-political issues, language, and life itself.

My work articulates the process of exposing and disassociating with the symbols of power, of society, or of communal ideals. This inversion sometimes triggers a mis-en-scène of apocalyptic scenarios. That is the way it should be. If what we take for granted vanishes or proves to be fictitious, we are left either in utter chaos or at the very beginning, where the newly unmasked civilization will be forced to once more reformulate its reality.

I went to a show

Hmm very interesting chomp chomp

2008-04-18T16:11:00.000-07:00

I just read these statistics on chompchomp.us about water vs. coke, I mean i dont really drink coke like that anyways. Yo last new years me and my home girl Malissa had this resolution to drink alot more water, so we bought that crazy big bottle of poland spring each day and finished one each shift (we worked together). I swear to sweet baby Jah himself I was a hell of alot more energized. My skin was brighter and I got these dark circles under my eyes that make me look like Timone, our favorite clever lil meerkat from Lion King, and them shits disappeared. I'm going to start grindin out again on that water hustle it really is a good look.

WATER

#1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. (Likely applies to half the world population.)

#2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is mistaken for hunger.

#3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one’s metabolism as much as 3%.

#4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of Washington study.
#5. Lack of water is the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.
#6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.
#7. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a ! printed page.
#8. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%., and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer. Are you drinking the amount of water you should drink every day?
COKE

#1. In many states the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood from the highway after a car accident.
#2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke and it will be gone in two days.
#3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl and let the “real thing” sit for one hour, then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous china.
#4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a rumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.
#5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the corrosion.

#6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Apply a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes.
#7. To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola into the baking pan, wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and bake. Thirty minutes before ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy.

#8. To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of Coke into the load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your windshield.

#1. the active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoric acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major contributor to the rising increase of osteoporosis.
#2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup! (the concentrate) the commercial trucks must use a hazardous Material place cards reserved for highly corrosive materials.

#3. The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean engines of the trucks for about 20 years!

Mr. Preggers

2008-03-27T14:28:00.000-07:00

A man who used to be a woman before having gender reassignment surgery claims he is five months pregnant and expecting a baby girl in July.

Thomas Beatie, who is married and from the US state of Oregon, has written an article in the gay magazine Advocate, saying it feels "incredible" to be a "pregnant man". He adds: "Despite the fact that my belly is growing with a new life inside me, I am stable and confident being the man that I am."

Born Tracy Lagondino, Mr Beatie kept his female organs when he changed genders. He turned to home insemination after what he says was discrimination from doctors. He says he is carrying a child on behalf of his wife, Nancy, because she has had a hysterectomy. The couple have been together for 10 years.

"Doctors have discriminated against us, turning us away due to their religious beliefs," Mr Beatie explained in the article.

"Healthcare professionals have refused to call me by a male pronoun or recognise Nancy as my wife. Receptionists have laughed at us. Friends and family have been unsupportive; most of Nancy's family doesn't even know I'm transgender," he added. "Sterilisation is not a requirement for sex reassignment, so I decided to have chest reconstruction and testosterone therapy but kept my reproductive rights," he said. "Wanting to have a biological child is neither a male nor female desire but a human desire."

The couple, who manage a custom screen-printing business in the town of Bend, lived a normal life "until we decided that I would carry our child," Mr Beatie wrote. A previous insemination ended in a life-threatening ectopic pregnancy with triplets, requiring surgery, resulting in the loss of all his embryos and his right fallopian tube.

"I will be my daughter's father, and Nancy will be her mother. We will be a family," Mr Beatie wrote. Advocate says it has confirmed with Mr Beatie's doctors that he is indeed pregnant.

In very sad news the four year old daughter of rapper Juvenile was murdered after her 17 year old brother, Anthony Tyrone Terrell Jr, allegedly gunned down his own mother (Joy Deleston), and his two younger sisters, Micaiah, 11, and Jelani, 4 at their home in Lawrenceville, outside Atlanta.
The Cash Money rapper, real name Terius Gray was confirmed as Jelani's father in 2003 after a DNA test, and is said to be "devastated".
The bodies were found on Thursday (Feb. 28) and Anthony Tyrone Terrell Jr was arrested on Friday (Feb. 29), charged with the deaths.
To avoid conflicts and complications, Terrell is being held in DeKalb County jail as his mother Joy Deleston worked for Gwinnett County as a sheriff’s deputy.

Im not one to really post fashion shit like that, trends die and i usually want the people who obsess over them to also (haha). But you know everyone likes a lil tight gear here and there.. another thing that makes me want to implode usually are female based streetwear brands.. their usually weak and for dumb bitches that spend their entirety on trying to prove themselves to guys by wearing an excessively tight pink t-shirt poss with a picture of a gun or set of brass knuckles to validate its street-ness and show you that these hoes mean business, when they usually spend their days talking shit about their friends and trying to steal their mans. BUT. There are a few and I mean FEW brands that I come across that me-likes. I usually like alot of the New york based female brands.... I found this one today probably also still late in the game as I always am... and I think their pretty tight.
London based female brand Not Bad for a Girl... they've got some New Era's & some cute baggy cut n sewn hoodies. I feels.

Check their shit out at www.notbadforagirl.com

R.I.P. Larry Davis

2008-02-22T20:18:00.000-08:00

Close friend of my family apparently...was killed while incarcerated on February 20, 2008. Peep his story.

According to Wikipedia-
Larry Davis (May 28, 1966 - February 20, 2008), who changed his name to Adam Abdul-Hakeem in 1989, was a New Yorker who shot six New York City police officers on November 19, 1986 when they raided his sister's Bronx apartment. The police said that the raid was executed in order to question Davis about the killing of four suspected drug dealers.[1] At trial, Davis's defense attorneys claimed that the raid was staged to murder him because of his knowledge of the involvement of corrupt police in the drug business. With the help of family contacts and street friends, he eluded capture for the next 17 days despite a massive manhunt. Once the search was narrowed to a single building, he took a family hostage but surrendered to police under the belief that the presence of reporters provided assurance that he would not be harmed.[2] His ability to survive the shootout, though outnumbered, and to elude capture in the subsequent massive manhunt gained him near folk hero status in some quarters.[3] Davis was acquitted of attempted murder charges in the police shootout case, and was acquitted of murder charges in the case involving the slain drug dealers. He found guilty of weapons possession in the shootout case, aquitted in another murder case, and was found guilty in a later murder case and was sentenced to 30 years to life in prison.[4] In 2008, Davis was stabbed to death by another inmate.

According to my mom-
Larry used to be a middle man between corrupt cops and drug sales on our Bronx back in the day. Some shit went down, the cops got scared, they came to kill him he shot each and everyone of those mother fuckers right in the mouth. He went to jail, but the cops got GOT and they had to resign their positions, but he did time for murdering two other drug dealers. He used to wash your dads car and beat your brothers ass when he used to pee off the school roof on people.

I aint even mad at you girl

2008-02-20T10:00:00.000-08:00

and then this shit. Which i totally believe can be justifiable under certain circumstances

Woman jailed for testicle attack
A woman who ripped off her ex-boyfriend's testicle with her bare hands has been sent to prison.
Amanda Monti, 24, flew into a rage when Geoffrey Jones, 37, rejected her advances at the end of a house party, Liverpool Crown Court heard.

She pulled off his left testicle and tried to swallow it, before spitting it out. A friend handed it back to Mr Jones saying: "That's yours."

Monti admitted wounding and was jailed for two-and-a-half years.

'Pulled hard'

Sentencing Monti, Judge Charles James said it was "a very serious injury" and that Monti was not acting in self-defence.

The court heard that Mr Jones had ended his long-term but "open relationship" with Monti towards the end of May last year.

The pair remained on good terms and on 30 May she picked him up from a party in Crosby and went back for drinks with friends at Mr Jones's house.

An argument ensued and Mr Jones said there was a struggle between them.

In his statement, Mr Jones said she grabbed his genitals and "pulled hard".

I am in no way a violent person
Amanda Monti

He added: "That caused my underpants to come off and I found I was completely naked and in excruciating pain."

The court heard that a friend saw Monti put Mr Jones's testicle into her mouth and try to swallow it.

She choked and spat it back into her hand before the friend grabbed it and gave it back to Mr Jones. Doctors were unable to re-attach the organ.

In a letter to the court, Monti said she was sorry for what she had done.

She said: "It was never my intention to cause harm to Geoff and the fact that I have caused him injury will live with me forever. I am in no way a violent person."

The letter added: "I have challenged myself to explain what has happened but still I just cannot remember. This has caused much anguish to me and will do for the rest of my life."

There's big shit going on today, Its Monday, we all have the potential to make our week inexplicably amazing. Its the beginning of February we all have the potential to make this month as heavy as a fuckin Buluga whale. The Giants beat the Patriots in the Super Bowl last night... Because of a touchdown involving Eli Manning and Plaxico Burress they came up the last 35 seconds into the game whilst Lawrence Tynes threw a little extra something in there to show New England what's REALLY HOOD. Thats why they're from New York...fuck an undefeated streak. We Got it for Cheap Volume 3 Drops today....HERES WHAT THEY THINK ABOUT YOU....'Re-Up is the gang, whenever have you seen such... splendor at it's best... modern day KIng Tuts... Bathe in our spoils, I tell my niggas drink up money over bitches.. am I my brothers Keeper? I color the verse, each one a Mona Lisa. Re-up the Elite the most famous of the Ceasers... chariots of fire, we single file the theivers... laughing at rhetoric we just not believers..'......I suggest everyone invest an hour or so of their time to review that whole situation. Ummm it was about 18 degrees in Chicago yesterday and we got a foot of snow, and I hear it was 45 In New York yesterday. The voting process begins tomorrow for some. BIG SHIT A GWAN. So wake up kiddies. Don't miss the Magic Carpet flying your way.

SO. When I was in highschool, My self along with Jason Henderson were the BIGGEST N.E.R.D. fans EXISTANT. Like seriously, we were hurt and heavily offended, when people stopped making fun of us and started bumping their shit when the Neptunes got more play....It was one of those..'well we liked them first!' type situations. We were so predictable and immature. We were 9th graders. We held up the star track hand signs for pictures. We stood on line when the had small signings. We knew every word to every song. Now in 2008, I feel a negative reaction when I bring up Pharrell or the Neptunes or N.E.R.D to alot of people... i dont know what it is but people got this love/hate thing going on that I don't really get......

Happy Holidays from WetNotDry. Ever wonder if the same fat white male luggs his big ass through the chimneys of good little boys and girls in Mexico where there are no chimneys? Oh yeah but we arent the center of the Universe. Check out how they celebrate in a few other countries:

Austria

The feast of St Nicholas marks the beginning of Christmas in Austria. The saint accompanied by the devil asks children for a list of their good and bad deeds. Good children are given sweets, toys and nuts. Gifts that are placed under the tree are opened after dinner on Christmas Eve.
Brass instruments play chorale music room church steeples, and carol singers, carrying blazing torches and a manger from house to house, gather on the church steps.
Silent Night was first sung in 1818, in the village church of Oberndorf. There is a story told of how Christmas was almost spoiled for the villagers that year.
On Christmas Eve, the priest went into the church and found that the organ was not working. The leather bellows that are used to pump the air through the pipes were full of holes. Christmas without music would not do so the priest showed the organist Franz Bauer a new Christmas hymn he had written. Franz quickly composed a tune for it that could be played on a guitar. So Oberndorf had music after all.
In Austria baked carp is served for the traditional Christmas dinner.
December 6 in Austria is when Heiliger Nikolaus or St. Nicholas, rewards good children with sweets, nuts and apples.
On December 24, the Christ Child brings presents and the Christmas tree for the children. The children wait until they hear a bell tinkling. Then they enter a special room where the Christmas tree is waiting all decorated with candles, ornaments and candies. The whole family sings Christmas carols and wishes each other:
FROLICHE WEIHNACHTEN!

Bethlehem

In Bethlehem the town where Jesus is said to have been born is the site of the Church of the Nativity, which is ablaze with flags and decorations on every Christmas. On Christmas Eve natives and visitors alike crowd the church's doorways and stand on the roof to watch for the dramatic annual procession. Galloping horsemen and police mounted on Arabian horses lead the parade. They are followed by solitary horseman carrying a cross and sitting astride a coal-black steed, then comes the churchmen and government officials. The procession solemnly enters the doors and places an ancient effigy of the Holy Child in the Church. Deep winding stairs lead to a grotto where visitors find a silver star marking the site of the birth of Jesus.
Christian homes in Bethlehem are marked by a cross painted over the door and each home displays a homemade manger scene. A star is set up on a pole in the village square.

Ethiopia

The Ethiopian Christmas known as Ganna is celebrated on January 7th. This celebration takes place in ancient churches carved from solid volcanic rock and also in modern churches that are designed in three concentric circles. Men and boys sit separately from girls and women. Also the choir sings from the outside circle.
People receive candles as they enter the church. After lighting the candles everyone walks around the church three times, then stands throughout the mass, which may last up to three hours.
Food served at Christmas usually includes injera, a sourdough pancake like bread. Injera serves as both plate and fork. Doro wat, a spicy chicken stew might be the main meal. A piece of the injera is used to scoop up the wat. Baskets decorated beautifully are used to serve the wat.
Gift giving is a very small part of Christmas celebration. Children usually receive very simple presents such as clothing.
In Ethiopia Christmas day is January 7, so on Christmas Eve the city is crowded with pilgrims from all parts of the country. They remain outdoors all night, praying and chanting. In the morning, a colorful procession makes its way to a nearby hilltop where a service is held. Three young men march at the head of the crowd, lashing whips from left to right to keep the people in line. Those who worship are fed with bread and wine that has been blessed by priests. After the service is over the rest of the day is spent dancing, playing sport and feasting.

Japan

Only 1 per cent of Japanese people believe in Christ. Even so, most Japanese people decorate their stores and homes with evergreens during Christmas.
They enjoy giving each other gifts, and this is the part they celebrate.
They have a Buddhist monk called Hotei-osho who acts like Santa Claus. He brings presents to each house and leaves them for the children. Some think he has eyes in the back of his head, so children try to behave like he is nearby.
Amng the Christian Japanese Christmas is not a day for the family. They do not have turkey or plum pudding, rather than that the day is spent doing nice things for others especially those who are sick in hospitals.
Christmas for those in Sunday schools is the happiest day of the year. On Christmas Eve or Christmas night, the children put on programs that last for hours, they sing, they recite and they put on a drama of the day Jesus was born in Bethlehem.
Most children may not like Hotei-osho so they may receive their presents from Santa who goes around with a red-nosed reindeer

Ding Dong the Ike is Dead

2007-12-12T19:33:00.000-08:00

Thats a horrible way to speak of the dead actually. BUT, I have a vivid memory of one of my favorite childhood movies... not 'Alice in Wonderland', but 'Whats love got to do with it' the reinactment of Ike and Tina Turners relationship. Myself and maybe 5 of my little cousins would park our innappropriately young asses in front of our tv, and play the VHS (which was a recorded version of when it was on TV so commercials included ladies and gents) and sing every song, act out every fight and cringe at every blow Ike turners Character (Laurence Fishburne) threw heartlessly at Tina's (Angela Basset). Since then weve sworn to Carve that fucker's 'Tail feather' out if we ever saw him in person.

Queen La Gay Gay

2007-12-08T13:01:00.000-08:00

Im LATE as hell I had no idea Queen Latifah was a lesbian, my roomate proclaims it would make sense because he'd personally NEVER tap that. But, nonetheless, I know some of you gents love those 'Thicker than a Snicker' types and this breaking news probably hurt your feelings. Im happy as hell for her, her wife's gorgeous, and I wish she was my dad.

L. Pawso.. Inhabits Exhibition

2007-11-27T20:49:00.001-08:00

Thirteen emerging artists from SAIC’s Advanced Fiber and Material Studies class employ a variety of mediums and processes to address ideas of space and habit. Customary textile processes such as knitting, weaving, printing and embroidery are prevalent in these artists’ exploration of what it means to inhabit or create a space while addressing individual conceptual concerns. Works ranging from large scale floor installations to intimate artist books are among the venues used to expand upon these traditional processes. Featuring work from our German princess, Laura Pawson. yaaaaahhdada.

Dr. Buzzards Savannah Band

2007-11-20T17:09:00.000-08:00

I came up on this band maybe a year or two ago, after I had an uncontrollable urge to find out who the fuck all the samples from the various bangers that were coming out were from. Some of my fav. joints, Ghostface's "Cher Chez La Ghoste" and my fellow Indian princess M.I.A.'s "Sunshower" originated here in this band. Other notable samplers were Tribe Called Quest, DeLaSoul, and Doug E. Fresh. I read an article online where Andy Hernandez a member talked about his audition. "When I auditioned to join the group, they didn't even ask me to play any music. They gave me a questionaire to fill out instead." The questionaire asked for information like: What is your political affiliation? What type of women do you go out with? Would you be willing not to wear tight pants? Do you consider yourself straight or a brat? Andy scored 48 out of a possible 100 points---higher than dozens of others that applied and he was invited to join the group.... What a fuckin plan. Id join in a heartbeat. Listening to their certain undeniably piff jumpoffs is so necessary such as: Sunshowers, I'll Play the fool, Cher ChezLaFemme/ C'est Si Bon, Whisperer, and Sour and Sweet. Get your miscellanious random oldies but goodies tracks weight up. Its best to know where the good shit came from, to understand where music is now. I dont think its a bad idea in fact im gonna get busy on this joint right here ;)
