Blast
Distributed worldwide exclusively by ConcordMedia.org.uk, this film covers the brief history of Vorticism: Britain #39;s only #39;home-grown #39; Modernist art movement. Counterpart in some respects of Futurism in Italy and Cubism in France, Vorticism was launched in 1914 with the publication of the first issue of its magazine Blast containing the Vorticist Manifesto signed by painter and novelist Wyndham Lewis and ten other artists and writers. Here they denounced the bourgeois conventions and hypocrisy of Victorian England, and proclaimed their faith in a new dynamic, machine-made culture appropriate to the 20th century. However in contrast to their Futurist contemporaries, who tended to idolise every aspect of technological change, the Vorticists adopted a more equivocal attitude towards machines, viewing them simultaneously as tools, adversaries, and prey. "We hunt machines, they are our favourite game. We invent them and then hunt them down." In their art, the Vorticists repudiated the irregularities of natural form in favour of hard, metallic, angular surfaces expressive of urban industrial civilisation. By the time of the second-and last-issue of Blast in 1915, war had broken out, and one of the members of the group, Henri Gaudier-Brzeska had already been killed. During the following years the savagely destructive capabilities of machines were overwhelmingly demonstrated. Responding to the war Jacob Epstein (closely associated with Vorticism though not a signatory of the ...From:ConcordMediaUKViews:0 0ratingsTime:02:19More inEducation

Honey Boo Boo, Jersey Shore, and the Sistine Chapel | Gene Expression

Posted: at 10:40 pm

Scott Jackisch (a.k.a., Oakland Futurist Guy) has a post up with the title, Jersey Shore is better than cat burning. Provocative? Yes. Timely? No. Jersey Shore is so 2010. We live in the age of Honey Boo Boo. This is clear from Google Trends. The red line represents searches for Honey Boo Boo, and the blue for Jersey Shore.

Mama June farting up a storm is still superior to cat burning. But about the Sistine Chapel, Ill leave you with Mr. Jackischs ruminations on that and genital mutilation:

Take genital mutilation. Thats cultural. I place it right along side of the Sistine Chapel as an example of culture. Most of the Mills Students agreed that we need to take the good and leave the bad behind in regard to the old cultures. But I wonder how divisible cultural artifacts truly are. Is the Sistine Chapel integrally linked to oppression and Inquisition? Can the beauty really be expunged of the horrors that funded it and the message it inheres? Some things were lost with the passing of Culture. Some horrible things along with the great.

The question of modularity and contingency in cultural production is one that we dont often consider. I suspect its because we dont want to.

Uro's people on floating reed islands – Video

Posted: at 11:50 am


Uro #39;s people on floating reed islands
These are the pre-Inca, Uro people that live on floating islands made completely of reeds. These islands are in lake Titicaca in Peru at over 12000 feet. From the island itself to their houses to their boats, everything is made entirely of reeds and rope. Historically they have survived off of fish and most recently other supplies they get from the mainland city of Puno. There are at least 50 islands and a population of about 2000. They have lived on these islands for over 500 years and survived major wars and the Spanish conquistadors.From:gullatine1Views:0 0ratingsTime:01:12More inPeople Blogs
