Re: [Frameworks] Quote of the Day

2020-05-02 Thread Francisco Torres
It seems harsh to put the responsability of our current situation on
all of humanity when actually it is the product of decisions taken
since ancient times by those in power and not by anything like ''human
nature''. If today the Amazon burns and African rainforest are razen
it is because decisions taken in boardrooms and presidential palaces
and, if we want to go further back, when Columbus and Da Gama got
money and ships to ''discover'' America and Africa...

But that is a political view of history, one that seems to be rapidly
being replaced by others like the one created by Mr. Edward O. Wilson,
Sociobiology.  In Sociobiology we humans have no other choice but to
compete against each other without any hope of ever getting out of the
systems of control and explotation created by the state and capital.
After all it is our genes who are on the driver seat, selfish genes
who only care for their replication. So why despair about domination
and destruction of all of nature then?  A very useful ideology to
those sitting at the top of the heap because it makes them feel better
by liberating them of responsability and for the rest of us who expect
to accept the rule power as the only possible way of living. ''Dont
worry, if it is just the way of nature, the strong survive and the
weak perish, either on the forest or the stock market''. That sounds
just like the words  the priestly caste have been feeding us since
Babylon.

[Frameworks] Quote of the Day

2020-05-02 Thread Gene Youngblood


“Humanity today is like a waking dreamer, caught between the fantasies of sleep 
and the chaos of the real world. The mind seeks but cannot find the precise 
place and hour. We have created a Star Wars civilization, with Stone Age 
emotions, medieval institutions, and godlike technology. We thrash about. We 
are terribly confused by the mere fact of our existence, and a danger to 
ourselves and to the rest of life.” 
  ~ Edward O. Wilson

Try Sight and Sound in the UK. It is part of the BFI but not quite sure how 
well known George is in the UK. Its worth looking into.

Cinema Scope, perhaps.  Depends on the length, but I suppose that is true
for any magazine.

Senses of Cinema is an online magazine.

We want to publish the first article from our Kuchar study. It would have
been in Film Comment, but they¹re down, possibly never to return. Can anyone
recommend a publication of similar high visibility that is still alive? It¹s
a lengthy piece, heavily illustrated. Maybe there¹s a digital-only outlet
we¹re not aware of.
