I think she makes some good points.
she also does a pretty masterful "you've got to be kidding me/I'm famous and powerful as shit" face for most of the video
(except her attempts to dance :-/)

Vertigo


"Vertigo is something other than the fear of falling. It is the voice of the emptiness below us which tempts and lures us, it is the desire to fall, against which, terrified we defend ourselves."
-Milan Kundera. Unbearable Lightness of Being.

concidence?

As I was doing some reading for my anthropology class, I came upon this section:
There is a North American Tribe called Nacirema and their mythology says that "their nation was originated by a culture hero, Notgnishaw, who is otherwise known for two feats of strength--the throwing of a piece of wampum across the river Pa-To-Mac and the chopping down of a cherry tree in which the Spirit of Truth resided."

um....does that remind anyone of the story of George Washington, who as a child chopped his father's cherry tree, but when asked told the truth, showing what a great guy he was?

whaaaa??? so damn cool.

personhood and shadows

I stumbled upon this...so amazing: http://www.dailydawdle.com/2010/08/top-10-examples-of-brilliant-shadow-art.html


On an unrelated/only barely related note...

There are some cultures in which a baby is born and only at the age of 6, when they can be a contributing member of the social community, do they become a person with rights to life, etc. The age of personhood varies from culture to culture. For some, the biological birth and social birth is one and the same, for others it is much different. When do you guys think that a baby/fetus/child becomes a person-a distinct being with rights to life and community?

from a research paper about aging artists

In what way do older artists differ from younger artists?

Experimentation at the cost of learning, for the sake of career advancement, is my criticism of younger artists. From what I see and hear, younger artists seem to carry a pathological reticence to emulate anyone who was considered great over 30 years ago. Their goals seem to be innovation and making money! Fools!

Orgasmz

As the celebrated anthropologist Margaret Mead also noted, Symons says, in cultures such as that of Samoa, where foreplay is encouraged, all women orgasm; but in cultures where foreplay is forbidden, or you have to be clothed to have sex, the potentiality for orgasm may be universally untapped.

"It is important to realise," Mead concluded, "that such an unrealised potentiality is not necessarily felt as frustration." Or, as Symons noted acidly: "The sexually insatiable woman is to be found primarily, if not exclusively, in the ideology of feminism, the hopes of boys and the fears of men."

"he had an odd autobiographical habit which led him to compose in his mind from time to time a short sentence about himself containing a subject in the third person and a predicate in the past tense."

-from Dubliners

I have that habit too. About possible future situations.
Wrote this a couple days ago... "She used every person as a mirror. It was only a shame that she could never see others to the same degree of clarity with which she saw herself."

another thought provoking quote: "One of his sentences read... Love between man and man is impossible because there must not be sexual intercourse and friendship between man and woman is impossible because there must be sexual intercourse."

Netta!

have you seen this installation? is it as cool as it looks? discuss.
