Cinema's self-awareness to stay a recording medium will define its dynamic with synthetic images.

chatting with my lichess opponents is more fun than actual friends. once i got into it with a player from north korea, it felt like talking to someone from outer space... he was a cool guy, his id went silent after a while.

with varun-david dhawan doing faux govinda, the bhojpuri industry is free from that burden and can explore more interesting stuff. the conditions of its resurgence are here, just need source material for it to take off. manohar kahaniyan has been exhausted.

The illustrations on these Chandamama magazine covers are incredible!

stunning film... made with such an ease and gentleness by a young director. between him and benjamin labatut, chilean artistic expression is what we need right now.

‘The very act of following the gods from location to location as they enact their history on a sacred map gives the spectators a role…’ in an alternative reality someone would have funded @KamalSwaroop to make a film on Ramnagar’s Ramlila. 🤲🏿

these arguments feel dead now, we need new discourse around films. where hides today's bazin?
#Cannes jury president Park Chan-wook says "I don’t think politics and art should be divided." " I think it’s a strange concept to think that they’re in conflict with each other. Just because a work of art has a political statement, it should not be considered an enemy of art. At the same time, just because a film is not making a political statement, that film should not be ignored. Even if we are to make a brilliant political statement, if it’s not expressed artfully enough, it would just be propaganda. So what I want to say is that art and politics are not concepts that are in conflict with each other, as long as they are artistically expressed, they are valuable."
