Film Independent, Chicago Filmmakers, Kindling Group, Kirby Dick, Jeffrey Kusama-Hinte, J S Mayank, David Novack, Laurence Thrush IN RE: Docket No. RM 2011-07 RESPONSE TO PROPOSED CLASS 7D We, the undersigned organizations and individuals, write in support of the Comment of International Documentary Association, Kartemquin Educational Films, Inc., National Alliance for Media, Arts, and Culture, and Independent Film Project, petitioning for an exemption to the DMCA’s anti-circumvention measures for DVD, Blu-Ray, and digitally transmitted video for the purpose of documentary and fictional filmmaking (“Proposed Class 7D”).1 The undersigned organizations work to support and defend filmmakers nationwide through educational outreach, financial support, and advocacy. Through seminars, written resources, workshops, festivals, grants, and other means, we support filmmakers at every stage of the filmmaking process. The undersigned individuals are award-winning filmmakers with decades of experience who have spent their careers contributing to American culture and journalism through film and who deeply understand the increasing value of filmmaking to our civic discourse, educational system, and American society as a whole. As filmmakers and filmmaker organizations, we know that the doctrine of fair use is integral to the filmmaking process. Without it we could not tell our stories, comment on society and culture, or illustrate our themes and arguments effectively. We write in support of Proposed Class 7D because we are concerned that the DMCA is prohibiting access to source material we depend on in order to make fair use. The Librarian of Congress must renew the 2010 exemption for DVDs for documentary filmmaking in order to prevent substantial harm to our ability to make fair use.

  • Street Art Rising Marshall Soules—[email protected]
    Vol 1 No 2 (Autumn 2020) Online: jps.library.utoronto.ca/index.php/nexj Visit our WebBlog: newexplorations.net Street Art Rising Marshall Soules—[email protected] This illustrated article discusses the various manifestations of street art—graffiti, posters, stencils, social murals—and the impact of street art on urban environments. Continuing perceptions of street art as vandalism contributing to urban decay neglects to account for street art’s full spectrum of effects. As freedom of expression protected by law, as news from under-privileged classes, as images of social uplift and consciousness-raising, and as beautification of urban milieux, street art has social benefits requiring re-assessment. Street art has become a significant global art movement. Detailed contextual history includes the photographer Brassai's interest in Parisian graffiti between the world wars; Cézanne’s use of passage; Walter Benjamin's assemblage of fragments in The Arcades Project; the practice of dérive (passage through diverse ambiances, drifting) and détournement (rerouting, hijacking) as social and political intervention advocated by Guy Debord and the Situationist International; Dada and Surrealist montage and collage; and the art of Quebec Automatists and French Nouveaux réalistes. Present street art engages dynamically with 20th C. art history. The article explores McLuhan’s ideas about the power of mosaic style to subvert the received order, opening spaces for new discourse to emerge, new patterns to be discovered. The author compares street art to advertising, and raises questions about appropriation, authenticity, and style. How does street art survive when it leaves the streets for galleries, design shops, and museums? Street art continues to challenge communication strategies of the privileged classes and elected officials, and increasingly plays a reconstructive role in modulating the emotional tenor of urban spaces.

  • View That the Present Study Affirms
    1 CYNEWULF'S ASCENSION (CHRIST II): A CRITICAL EDITION Roland T. Williams A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 197U Approved by Doctoral Committee Advisor Department of Englzi ¿f7 iJ-l—dJ —;; WWUNG GREEN Stint UNIVERSITY LIBRARY ABSTRACT Ascension (Christ II) is one of four Old English poems (the other three are Fates of the Apostles, Juliana, and Elene) with the name "Cynewulf" embedded in runes, acrostic-fashion, near the end. The purpose of the dissertation is to present a text of Ascension, transcribed from the Exeter Book facsimile. Included, too, are textual notes and commentary, introduction, translation, and glossary. Although the poem has been edited as part of the Exeter Book, as one of Cynewulf's signed works, and in collections of Old English literature, it has never been issued before as a separate work. The first 1,664 lines of the Exeter Book have been divided by scholars into Christ I (Advent), Christ II (Ascension), and Christ III (The Last Judgment) and were considered for many years to be a trilogy called Christ. Since Benjamin Thorpe published the first edition of the Exeter Book in 1842, scholars have repeated­ ly attempted to discover whether Cynewulf wrote one, two, or all three parts. For the reason that Cynewulf's name appears only at the end of Ascension, current scholarship holds that Cynewulf wrote only this poem, a view that the present study affirms. The introduction includes a discussion of the background of the Exeter Book, problems relating to authorship, dating, dialect, and runic writing, and a critical analysis which ejqjlores the structure, diction, imagery, and theme of the poem.

  • What's up Doc: a Review and Analysis of English Language
    SAUC - Journal V4 - N2 Changing times: Resilience What’s Up Doc: A Review and Analysis of English Language Documentaries On Contemporary Grafti And Street Art Jefrey Ian Ross - Ph.D. University of Baltimore email: [email protected] Ronald Kramer - University of Auckland email: [email protected] Abstract Over the past four decades, most large urban settings around the world have experienced an increase in grafti and street art. One of the consequences of this activity is an attempt to interpret this phenomenon. Not only have popular and scholarly articles and books catalogued, examined, and analyzed grafti and street art, and the people who engage in and respond to this activity, but so too have documentary movies. In order to better understand this latter method of capturing and explaining grafti and street art, this paper reviews and analyzes seventeen English language documentary flms (produced between 1980-2014) drawing generalizations about the dominant themes that have been expressed in this body of work. This analysis includes a review of the settings, individuals interviewed, and provides a critical commentary on this body of work. Keywords: Grafti, Street Art, Documentaries, Films, Movies 1.

Through inspection of 1800 tokens across c. 400 texts, it determines the understanding of how ANGER vocabulary operates in the Old English lexicon and within the broader socio-cultural context of the period. It also helps refine the interpretations of wide-ranging issues such as authorial preference, translation practices, genre, and interpretation of literary texts. The thesis contributes to diachronic lexical semantics and the history of emotions by developing a replicable methodology that triangulates data from different sources.

A good reason to celebrate! We would have done this glamorous in the gardens of the Museum of Modern Art in Rio with the presence of many international filmmakers. But the ongoing pandemic made this impossible. For that, from May 20th to 30th, 2021, we're celebrating the 10th Rio de Janeiro International Uranium Film Festival for free online. And everyone is invited! We will remember the still unsolved nuclear accident in Fukushima 10 years ago and the UN treaty on the prohibition of nuclear weapons, which has been in force since January of this year. And we dedicate this tenth edition to the filmmakers and producers who have tackled with courage, creativity and passion these difficult issues that threaten the health and lives of millions of people and future generations.

  • Is Graffiti Art?
    IS GRAFFITI ART? Russell M. Jones A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2007 Committee: Andrew Hershberger, Advisor Allie Terry ii ABSTRACT Dr. Andrew Hershberger, Advisor Illegal graffiti is disconnected from standard modes of visual production in fine art and design. The primary purpose of illegal graffiti for the graffiti writer is not the visual product, but “getting up.” Getting up involves writing or painting one’s name in as many places as possible for fame. The elements of risk, freedom and ritual unique to illegal graffiti serve to increase camaraderie among graffiti writers even as an individual’s fame in the graffiti subculture increases. When graffiti has moved from illegal locations to the legal arenas of fine art and advertising; risk, ritual and to some extent, camaraderie, has been lost in the translation. Illegal graffiti is often erroneously associated with criminal gangs. Legal modes of production using graffiti-style are problematic in the public eye as a result. I used primary and secondary interviews with graffiti writers in this thesis. My art historical approach differed from previous writers who have used mainly anthropological and popular culture methods to examine graffiti. First, I briefly addressed the extremely limited critical literature on graffiti. In the body of the thesis, I used interviews to examine the importance of getting up to graffiti writers compared to the relative unimportance of style and form in illegal graffiti. This analysis enabled me to demonstrate that illegal graffiti is not art.
