Beijing Silvermine - Thomas Sauvin
-----
"Thomas is a genius"
via vimeo.
Beijing Silvermine is a unique photographic portrait of the capital and the life of its inhabitants following the Cultural Revolution. It covers a period of 20 years, from 1985, namely when silver film started being used massively in China, to 2005, when digital photography started taking over. These 20 years are those of China's economic opening, when people started prospering, travelling, consuming, having fun.

Sehr schönes Video 8-)
via vimeo.
The idea for this one minute video comes from something my mom told me when I was a child, that I never forgot and which is still true today.
Following an interesting comment I received, I would like to say that to make this video, I followed the different people of my family and some friends as they were really using the water in their daily tasks. I did not ask them to re-do something, there was only one take. No water was wasted in the making of the video!

This video is part of SHADES OF GREEN / Eco-Art Exhibition / April 2013 / Georgia College, US.
"The idea of combining artwork with information about environmental responsibility and sustainability helps to solidify the ideas of an Earth friendly lifestyle and often serves as an ongoing reminder of what the students and the community learn during Shades of Green, Earth Day, and the Sustainability Council at Georgia College. By connecting Shades of Green, the Sustainability Council, and Earth Day, Georgia College and our community are learning new information throughout the year."

"Hier ein neuer Mix freundlicher Unterstützung eines neuen Pioneer CDJ 850. Dem Vinyl bleibe ich aber weiterhin treu.
Wir hören zunächst ein paar smoothe Vocal Tracks, schwenken in Richtung Balkan und Swing House und finden uns dann in Variantionen von treibenden House Beats. Das finale ist ein Techno-Klassiker von Laurent Garnier."

TAKE MY PICTURE
via vimeo.
When we set out to make this short, our intention simply was to observe the phenomenon of fashion bloggers and street style stars. As we started to review the footage, two salient trends became apparent: fashion editors frustrated by the ensuing commotion outside of shows, and the rise of "peacocking" street style stars as a result of the proliferation of blogs. This film examines these themes from both perspectives.

YOKO ONO’S PLEA FOR GUN CONTROL EXPRESSED IN ONE IMAGE: JOHN LENNON’S BLOOD-SPLATTERED GLASSES
"31,537 people are killed by guns in the USA every year. We are turning this beautiful country into a war zone.
Together, let’s bring back America, the green land of peace.
The death of a loved one is a hollowing experience. After 33 years our son Sean and I still miss him.” Yoko Ono Lennon

Kurzfilm: Flamingo Pride // Shorts Collect
"Unser Beitrag zur Diskussion um die Homo-Ehe.
Frustriert darüber, dass er der einzige heterosexuelle Flamingo in einem schwulen Flamingo-Schwarm ist, verliebt sich der Filmheld in eine vorbeifliegende Störchin. Nachdem er es nicht schafft, sie von seinen ernsthaften Gefühlen zu überzeugen, isoliert er sich und erlebt eine Identitätskrise. Erst eine intensive Begegnung inspiriert ihn dazu, einen mutigen Schritt zu machen."

Milos Forman Interview (1976)
-----
DM sez:
"Miloš Forman discusses One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest with Denis Tuohy in 1976, where the multi-award winning director explains his views on Politics, Art and Film-making.
Tuohy appears not to be aware that One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest was based on the novel by Ken Kesey, instead, he digs for some personal East-West political subtext that relates to Forman’s past life in Czechoslovakia. (Though it’s not mentioned here, Forman’s parents died in Nazi concentration camps during the Second World War—his mother in Auschwitz in 1943, his father in Buchenwald, 1944; while after the war, Forman lived under the country’s brutal Communist rule.)"
