    Ethnologies of internal intelligence/homeland security

    thanks for the links, Sufi in addition to the book I mentioned, some resources I've already been looking at include the Washington Post Top Secret America project and the work of the artist Trevor Paglen. the former is, I imagine, about as close a picture I'll be able to get of how contemporary...

    Ethnologies of internal intelligence/homeland security

    Not sure if this is really the correct section for this. I'm doing research for a fictional film that deals, in part, with the massive, largely top-secret security system that's sprung up in the U.S. since 9/11. My aim is to contrast the mundane, day-to-day bureaucratic activities of the low...

    Films you've seen recently and would unreservedly recommend:

    saw Jean Pierre Melville's Army of Shadows in the theater tonight was 20 minutes late (I think I'll try to download and re-watch it) but holy shit was it incredible gorgeous cinematography (a good deal of it night or low light shots) and some interesting camerawork apparently it never got...

    Radical Fantasy

    ahhhhh so glad to find this discussion here I'm actually making a film right now that definitely qualifies for the "radical fantasy" label (though in aesthetic approach it's much more SF) - the whole idea is about money being black magic (invented out of thin air, multiplying on its own, etc.)...

    Kickstarter

    no one? no one? echo? echo? well anyway, I started the campaign: I'm sure there's people on here who have either tried it or else given to other people's projects... speak up! I think it's starting to become a little oversaturated too - too many people asking for too much money to do too...

    Music by children

    Oh definitely! On a similar note, I was attempting to find a book of children's artwork, but I don't think anything like it exists. It's amazing that considering the enormous influence children's artwork has had on modern art (Picasso, Klee, Dada, the primitivists, Dubuffet, etc), it's not often...

    Music by children

    Does anyone know of any albums of music made by young children? Not child prodigies. I'm talking about kids just having a good old time banging on whatever they can find, making the rules up as they go along. This is the only one I know of: I'm sure there music be more out there, no?

    My Fellow Americans - Dissensian roadtrip

    I'd buy you waffles and talk about why I (and most people my age) don't vote, but you probably don't want to hear that or maybe you do?
