RED teasers

Doing my web rounds this morning, I came across a couple of things Iwish I had done myself. The second is down here, an ad for the show R.E.D., brought to you by CNN's court TV. I'm pretty sure,without being likely to ever watch the show, that this trailer is more entertaining, not than the real content. It probably offers a bit more excitement and artistic value, too.

They're actually three trailers, all of them featuring animated typography with very little background but a lot of action. The power of words, moved.

This video is also over two years old, so there's no telling if it's still running.

As for the first thing, I'm working on it right now.




And for a beautifully rendered music video by los perturbados, with much the same idea behind it, except that it also uses some pictures, head to youTube!

It has, by now been described as "9/11 in slow motion". Someone else broke a golden editorial rule to describe it as "2008  on crack". Media outlets, including Youtube, have warned of the long-term effects of this, on civil rights, labour and employment, surveillance and press freedom. And some, most notably Mr Orban of Hungary, have used this excellent opportunity to pass new, restrictive legislation that concentrates power in their hands. There have been calls for the elusive COVID cure not to be patented. And yet… And yet… It's easy to lose yourself in a media bubble, following the news and media 24/7, following, queuing in line to get into expensive shops, just walking into discount stores and the constant desire for many drinks (preferably with 10 friends or more, in a park...

IGAF: An ahistoric crisis?

One of the many reasons I have grown to appreciate interviews with Arundhati Roy over the last year of what I'm calling her book tour is that, in contrast with many speakers at conferences and interviewees, I never have the feeling she is trying to sell me something. She speaks in a calm, collected voice, full of knowledge, experience and occasional wisdom, without being desperately full of herself. One of my favourite sayings is, so far, goes something like "The most successful revolution was the secession of the rich onto a global planet, wherefrom they cannot see the poor. There is no more India, no more USA, no more Europe- there is planet Rich, then there is planet Poor, and both are global."* Carers at their limits- now more than ever. For €2400 and some chocolates?  A month or so into what may be a new normal, my life is still pleasant- with some adjustment, I am, so far, privileged in this absence of change and an ability to follow the crisis as I would fol...
