12/01 The true journey.
A nice video highlighting the cyclic poetry in Malick’s The New World.
He who does not understand your silence will probably not understand your words.

12/01 Impactist
There are some great pieces of audio/video art made by the collaborative group Impactist. The first one, which happens to be by far the most surreal, is my favourite. The video description (from the website summary):
When a geometric visitor from another planet becomes your new roommate and shares with you the tragic state of its home world, you drop your guitar and see what you can do. We created this piece in response to the accompanying music track we created in honor of a visiting cat named Leo.
The second one is about a parallel love story, entitled Parallelostory. The animation in this one is mesmerisingly beautiful:
Spend a couple minutes in the multiverse and you may find it comfortable enough to participate in your own Parallelostory, which is just hip meta-universe slang for “parallel love story”. But remember, this is only one of an infinite number renderings of the same story that your dimensional alternates will have already viewed, are viewing, or will view. Or not at all.

“The sound of kissing” by multimedia artist Hye Yeon Nam.
(this made me laugh)
Time and space are modes by which we think and not conditions in which we live.
Perfect clarity would profit the intellect but damage the will.

The rage and self-loathing associated with hipsters has become more annoying, more naive, and more artificial than hipsters could ever hope to be. […] [W]hat remains for artists and bohemians who are legitimately trying to be part of a counterculture? You get the sense that if Jimi Hendrix were to show up in Echo Park today, he’d be publicly mocked in a style section piece on blipsters for wearing a feathered fedora.
I almost wanted to think this article is a piece of satire, but given the way I could relate to it, I think it is, in fact, serious. A few choice quotes:
“[S]omeone you know, respect, and interact with every day is an introvert, and you are probably driving this person nuts.”
“[M]any actors, I’ve read, are introverts, and many introverts, when socializing, feel like actors.”
