简介:现在还有什么东西不用塑料做?塑料在任何家庭中都已经成为最普通的物品——它便宜,用途多样而且耐用然而塑料是不可生物降解的,并且虽然它看起来容易丢弃,许多种塑料并不容易回收,所以大多数塑料物品注定将永远成为垃圾。更糟的是,塑料加工经常产生有毒废物,处理废品塑料产品的方式是隐藏问题——大规模的陆地堆填和海洋倾倒,而不是解决它。影片制作人Ian Connacher探寻了不负责任的成瘾的塑料使用所造成全球环境影响的后果。 What isn't made of plastic these days? Plastic has become one of the most commonplace items in any household -- it's inexpensive, versatile and durable. However, the latter quality is also plastic's Achilles' Heel -- while it's easy to make things out of plastic, plastic is not biodegradable, and though it seems easy to throw away, many types of plastic aren't easily recyclable, so most plastic items are destined to become garbage that lasts forever. Even worse, plastic manufacturing often produces toxic waste, and disposing of unwanted plastic products has resulted in massive landfills and ocean dumps that simply hide a problem rather than solving it. Filmmaker Ian Connacher explores the global environmental consequences of the irresponsible use of plastic materials in Addicted To Plastic! The Rise and Demise of a Modern Miracle, an activist documentary that explores how plastic became an inescapable commodity and how we can (and why we must) wean ourselves off of it. Addicted To Plastic was an official selection at the 2008 Vancouver Film Festival. A film by Ian Connacher, Cryptic Moth Productions. Award winning documentary reveals the history and worldwide scope of plastics pollution, investigates its toxicity and explores solutions. Bullfrog Films. 85 minutes.

简介:英国Eels乐队的一名歌手Mark Oliver Everett将为你讲述他的天才父亲的传奇悲剧人生和神奇经历他的父亲曾在24岁发表了一篇"多重世界"的物理论文,震惊了全世界,但物理学界并不买账,他的父亲只能放弃了量子物理学。现在这件事被认为是物理学界最严重的悲剧之一,他的理论如此超前以至于当时的人无法理解,50年后的今天人们才证明了他的理论... Singer Mark Oliver Everett - E from the Eels - explains why he made a film about his brilliant, tragic father Shortly after my father died the phone started ringing. My father was Hugh Everett III. When he was 24 he wrote a ground-breaking thesis about physics most commonly known as "the many worlds theory". It challenged the accepted notion of how the world works in such a huge way, stating that there were actually countless versions of ourselves splitting off and going through as many different scenarios as you could imagine, and the physics powers that be (Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr) were having none of this. They weren't about to let a 24-year-old knock their faces off the Mount Rushmore of physics. Getting no encouragement, my father gave up on quantum physics. It's now considered to be one of the greatest tragedies in physics that my father wasn't taken seriously. He was so ahead of his time that there weren't even ways to prove his theory mathematically, but now, 50 years later, there are. And it checks out quite well. I knew this day was coming ever since the phone started ringing in 1982. It was always some "physics groupie" asking for my mother so they could grill her for information about my father. And, as time went on and technology caught up with him, the interest kept mounting. I'm a singer and songwriter in a rock band called Eels. I never knew much about physics and my father was a complete mystery to me, even though I lived in the same house with him for 18 or 19 years. He rarely spoke. He was an ever-present lump of flesh sitting at the dining room table every night writing out crazy calculations on a pad of paper. That's about all I saw of him. When the BBC asked if I was interested in making a film, I jumped at the chance. I have tended to deal with my family by making them into little art projects. I made an album in 1998 called Electro-shock Blues that dealt extensively with my sister's and mother's deaths. While my sister's suicide note did indeed contain a passage about going off to meet our father in a parallel universe, I hadn't made anything that dealt with my father the way I had dealt with the rest of my family, and this was the way I liked to do it: make something that is therapeutic for me personally that, hopefully, can offer something for the rest of the world. The idea made me both excited and uncomfortable. And the uncomfortable part was what made me know it was something I'd have to do. I didn't like the idea of opening up that world of pain and going back to Virginia and Washington DC, places where I can smell the dread in the air because of all the painful memories. But to get the chance to hang out with my father's college roommates, who are all still alive, friends and coworkers, was too interesting for me not to go through with. I knew I was going to learn a lot about both physics and my father. And I did. The first few days of shooting were awkward and I felt pretty uptight. Then one day while I was being interviewed on camera about some painful experience, I heard Louise [Lockwood], the director, softly click her mouth and whisper, "Aw, E..." Suddenly I thought: "These people actually care about me." I then relaxed and probably started saying all sorts of things I would have been too guarded about before. I was struck by what a tragedy my father's life was. He has contributed something huge to the world, but for him it was painful. How would you like to come up with something so mind-blowing about how the world works, confident that you knew it was true, but have no one support your view? It must have been the loneliest life, being the smartest guy in the room, just having to shut up and keep your thoughts to yourself while the regular chimps all chat away. I was determined to help to give him the day in the sun he never got when he was alive. I spent a week at Princeton learning about physics and hanging out with my father's old friends. I did not inherit my father's gift for mathematics, and can barely calculate the tip after dinner, so it was a real challenge for me to be standing in front of blackboards learning about quantum physics. But I came to have a pretty good understanding of my father's theory. In Virginia I met some of my father's coworkers and even went inside the Pentagon (who knew security was so lax?). It was a very difficult process for me, but when it was over I felt really glad that I had done it. It's not easy going back to a place you really don't want to go back to and opening boxes of memories. Particularly with a film crew following you, trying to make you cry ("How does that make you feel, E?"). I'd be really glad if I had a son do something like this for me some day, so I'd like to think that my dad is smiling down from some parallel universe and saying, "thanks".

简介:Lovecraft's Fear of the Unknown这部纪录片向观众们展示了克苏鲁神话背后的生活、工作和思想剧本和导演为Frank H. Woodward。制片人为William Janczewski, James B. Myers和Woodward。本片荣获2008年Comic-Con国际独立电影节最佳纪录片奖。 关于克苏鲁神话 克苏鲁神话(Cthulhu Mythos)是以霍华德·菲利普·洛夫克拉夫特的小说世界为基础,由奥古斯特·威廉·德雷斯整理完善、诸多作者共同创造的架空神话体系。克苏鲁并非此架空世界中的主神,虽然它是在地球上很常见的信仰,这些神话的题材可能来自世界各地神话传说的再诠释(如北美传说中的雪怪温迪戈(Wendigo))。只要是接受洛夫克拉夫特小说的概念而衍伸创作的小说都可以纳入此神话的一部分,所以此神话系统至今还在扩展,仍有许多新的创作。

简介:路易斯.布尔乔亚〔Louise Bourgeois〕 Louise Bourgeois(1911- )富有影响力的雕塑家、画家,批评家与作家.是至今健在的享有世界声誉的女性艺术家之一,她的名望随着岁月的流逝还在增长很少有人直到90岁时还能保持如此旺盛的创造力,她自已写了这样一句话: “人越老越聪明”.她的存在本身就演绎了一段生命的奇迹。 Louise Bourgeois生于巴黎,25岁时才学习艺术。 1938年与美国艺术史学家Robert Goldwater, (1907-73)结婚,并移居纽约,她早期的作品都是绘画或平面雕刻,以接近于超现实主义的方式进行创作,40年代后又开始尝试雕塑。起初搞彩色木雕,后来其雕塑的用材越来越广,包括青铜、大理石、乳胶等。她的作品看起来虽然抽象,但很容易让观者产生联想:想到人的躯体和性。其作品总和人与人之间的关系有关,背叛、复仇、焦虑、迷惑、攻击、不平、孤独,抽象深奥但具有情绪上的震撼力。她终生被这些主题吸引,但却不断变换材质、风格、形式,进行反复探索,因此面貌丰富而多变。 1982年美国现代艺术馆专程为她举办了个人回顾展,极少有在世的艺术家能享受到这项殊荣,何况她是一位女性。 Louise Bourgeois创造力的真正爆发还是在她70岁以后。她大胆尝试橡胶、石膏等新材料,并恰到好处地将行为、装置等形式融入自己的艺术,很难想象,这位年逾古稀的高龄老太太甚至还亲自创作Rap(一种流行的说唱音乐,其特点是连续反复的节奏和具有社会反抗意识的说唱词)。为此,Bourgeois当之无愧地成为了新一代艺术家的榜样和女权运动的楷模。 对她父亲的失望和童年噩梦是她的艺术动力:在2008年6月,纽约的电影论坛 (Film Forum)首映了纪录片"路易斯.布尔乔亚:蜘蛛,情妇,与橘子" (Louise Bourgeois: the Spider, the Mistress and the Tangerine),纪录了女艺术家的内心世界。 一般人对布尔乔亚印象最深的记忆,莫过于她那大型蜘蛛(Maman) ,布尔乔亚说:蜘蛛,为什么是蜘蛛呢?我最好的朋友是我的母亲,她就像蜘蛛一样聪明,耐心,灵巧。她也懂得保护自己。她从母亲身上抓取一些特质,然后创作大蜘蛛,然而,这个启发是经由一段难堪的记忆换来的,从小她与父亲,母亲,及家庭教师住在一块,之后却发现爸爸与女家教有性关系,妈妈却忍受一切,布尔乔亚感受到被这三位她最爱的人背叛,自然的在心理上蕴酿起气愤,妒嫉,与痛苦,渐渐的,她明了妈妈的苦衷,她便开始创作不少版本的蜘蛛,在影片里,她坦承的表白:这传达那一份我爱上母亲性格的讯息。 布尔乔亚说:红是血的颜色。是痛。暴力。危险。羞愧。嫉妒。怨恨。指责的颜色。在在都是极度冒犯的字眼,她用这些来诠绎对红色的记忆,就像在纪录片里,她手握一朵红玫瑰,象征一段爱情的刺痛, "情妇"一词代表父亲的爱人,指的是谁呢?母亲吗?她自己吗?都不是,曾有一次,父亲用橘子皮,插上一根阳具般的东西,制作成一件艺术品,称为"理想的女儿" ,来贬低她的女儿身,这事件刺伤了她.虽然之后她有一段美好的情爱与婚姻,但始终抹不掉对父亲的恨意,她说“我必须对和我们住在一起的父亲情人视而不见,对我母亲的痛苦视而不见,对我姐姐和街对面男人的变态关系视而不见。我的生活充满了疯狂的母性爱。她小时候的沉恸与怆殇,影响她一生的创作,她说:我的童年从未失去它的魔力,失去它的神秘,失去它的戏剧性。她说:"雕塑就是自我的认知的过程吧!"她的作品看上去每每不同,主题却都是相同的:对恐惧的摆脱。在它面前躲藏、逃跑、表现、驱除、耻辱,最后成了对恐惧的恐惧。 亚里斯多德在论及希腊悲剧的本质时,强调藉由同情与恐惧,能产生情绪的净化,类似的,对布尔乔亚而言,当人哭的时候,会显出一付丑陋的脸,但她却认为看着一张不漂亮的脸,可目睹与体会人的恐惧与害怕,可产生怜悯,之后便能轻易的洗去心中的痛与恶魔。布尔乔亚感情相当的丰富,也很脆弱,她经常落泪,很多时候,她将这般难以厘清的情感转移成创作的泉源,她说:我的情绪实在太多,让我很难应付,这就是为什么我把情绪的能量转为雕像的缘故了。蜘蛛,情妇,与橘子,此三样听起来不相干的东西,却在布尔乔亚的生命之中相互串连,缠绕她的一生. 2003年, Louise Bourgeois获得年度的沃尔夫基金奖(Wolf Foundation Prize ),因为在长期的创作生涯里,她的艺术不仅标志着当代美学观念与创作形式的创新,而且丰富了智力的复杂性,促使人们重新思考艺术以及艺术家在现代社会中所应扮演的角色。对大多数人而言, Bourgeois是神秘的,但对Louise Bourgeois来说,神秘永远不是理性的对立面。她的艺术就是要使人们看到理由——"Making people see reason" 。也许,她最吸引的地方正存在于这条格言里。 布尔乔亚说:“只能选择,是接受过去,还是消灭记忆。”。她的工作室是由工厂改装的,有着许多石头。 “在这个工厂,一百年前的男人和女人们,好象偷偷做了些什么”。她谈到身为一个女人的矛盾:"做一名雕塑家,妳必须要有侵略性…作品才能产生独立的风格。"又说: "当一名独特的女人,又想被人喜爱,其实很困难的,渴望被人喜欢是颈上的一种痛。"身为女子,若要在艺术上有独立,挑衅的作风,但又得顾及人们的赞同与拥抱,这份不安全感一直跟随着她,不过,在两者之间产生冲突时,她宁愿选择前者,当代人将她奉为女性主义的偶像,虽然她的艺术大都以女人的角度作出发,但她却认为她的作品反映的是个人的经验,并拒绝这种被窄小化的归类。
