  • Fashioning Tattooed Bodies: an Exploration of Japan's Tattoo Stigma
    Fashioning Tattooed Bodies: An Exploration of Japan’s Tattoo Stigma By John Skutlin, Chinese University of Hong Kong Abstract: This article uses a cultural anthropological approach to examine tattooing stigma in contemporary Japan, particularly in terms of how the stigma has developed and how tattooed individuals engage in various legitimation maneuvers to cope with it. Tattooing has a long history in Japan, and tattoo culture saw a major efflorescence in the Edo period (1603-1868). However, unlike many Western countries, where most tattoos are widely accepted as expressions of individual style and aesthetics, a confluence of historical and cultural factors have resulted in a general antipathy to the practice in Japan, particularly due to its association with yakuza organized crime groups. As increasing numbers of young people go under the needle for what they see as artistic “fashion tattoos,” reconciliatory strategies must be deployed in order to maintain social cohesion and assure adherence to group norms even while violating them. Through historical accounts and ethnographic data, this paper thus elucidates the complicated nature of stigma in Japan and the specific ways in which individuals fashion both their bodies and their strategies to legitimize themselves, showing how efforts to conceal tattoos – even when only partially successful – can be an effective means of reconciling themselves with the general society around them.

Nierenberg, USA, 59 min. “The films, which I consider the two best ever made about the art, didn’t just record tap history; they became part of it, helping to stoke a revival.” —Brian Seibert, The New York Times Three veteran African American tap-dance masters—Bunny Briggs, Chuck Green, and Howard “Sandman” Sims—tell their stories and dance their hearts out in a documentary that single- handedly launched a tap revival. This 2K restoration of Nierenberg’s joyous tribute sparkles anew as the three stars perform at the Harlem club Small’s Paradise. Preceded by ABOUT TAP (1985, George T.

Almost since the art form began, there's been a split between animation as a studio product and animation as a vehicle for individual expression. The enormous succe features and TV shows has kept the work of the major animation studios uppermost in the minds of American audiences recently. But beginning with the pioneer cartoonist and filmmaker Winsor McCay - - back in the early 1900's -- independent artists have treated animation as an art as personal, flexible and immediate as painting or sculpture. Their work is an entirely different vision of what an animated film can be, as the new DVD box set The Animation Show of Shows richly proves. Volume 3 just came out. The artists who create these films may teach or support themselves with other jobs or work at a government-sponsored body, like the National Film Board of Canada. Some are students, and some are professionals pursuing their visions in their spare time. They're united by a commitment to the art of animation. M any of the films in Show of Shows use techniques that are too impractical or personal for large scale production.

  • Shock the Monkey a Vr Film by Nicolas Blies & Stéphane Hueber-Blies
    SHOCK THE MONKEY A VR FILM BY NICOLAS BLIES & STÉPHANE HUEBER-BLIES An experiment of anticipation in virtual reality on the privatization of our imagination. Will you be able to regain your freedom? A production by “The advertising industry that is used to create consumers is a phenomenon that has developed in the freest countries. 100 years ago, it became clear that it would be more difficult to control the population by force. The freedom gained was far too great. We needed new ways to control people. With this new objective, the advertising industry exploded to make consumers. The idea is to control everyone, to transform society into a perfect system. A system based on a duo. This duo is you and television, or today, you and the Internet, that shows you what an ideal life looks like, what you should have. And you will spend your time and energy to get it. (...) We create desires, we lock the population into the role of consumers. (...) Consumers who must be spectators, not participants in our democracies. Noam Chomsky “ 2 SUMMARY 2046. SOMA is an activist against the dominant system. It is also the code name for the spirit liberation program she and her team have been running for several months. A program that seeks to stem the privatization of our minds by multinationals and consumerist ideology. SOMA kidnaps you and encourages you to free yourself from this conditioning. With your permission, she infiltrates your brain. You then begin a psychedelic journey into the depths of your imagination to allow you to regain your free will.

It had become apparent that Screen Studies, as a track, was a small and insular part of the school; where other tracks often had to work together on projects, culminating in something that could proudly be shared with the student body, Screen Studies had nothing of the sort.
