[From the HomiCon list. --Emil] This seminar is coming up at the Museum of Television and Radio in New York City:
http://www.mtr.org/seminars/semnrs_ny.htm Unraveling The Wire Thursday, February 10, 2005 6:00 to 7:45 p.m. Panel: Ed Burns, Producer/Writer John Doman, "Dep. Commissioner Rawls" Idris Elba, "Russell 'Stringer' Bell" Seth Gilliam, "Sgt. Ellis Carver" George Pelecanos, Producer/Writer David Simon, Creator/Executive Producer Karen Thorson, Producer Michael K. Williams, "Omar" Dubbed a "Homeric epic of modern America" by Salon, HBO's The Wire is most aptly described not as a police drama or crime drama, but as a human drama. This artfully subversive series about Baltimore police and the criminals they targetâcrafted like a "visual novel" rather than a series of short stories, as most episodic dramas are,âexplores the unlikely theme of the conflict between contemporary institutions and individuals, and what happens when the institutions themselves become paramount over the people who serve them. The Museum will screen an entire episode from season three. Tickets for this seminar will be on sale to Museum Members starting Monday, December 20, 2004. On sale to the general public on Monday, January 3, 2005. Bill Grossman ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> $4.98 domain names from Yahoo!.
