Moma ANNOUNCES a SELECTION of SPRING and SUMMER 2020 FILM PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS MoMA ANNOUNCES A SELECTION OF SPRING AND SUMMER 2020 FILM PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS NEW YORK, February 11, 2020—The Museum of Modern Art announces film program highlights of the spring and summer 2020 seasons, including a Tsai Ming-Liang retrospective, a series celebrating the 15th anniversary of Participant Media, and a noteworthy French New Wave program highlighting the genre’s lesser known filmmakers. Starting things off this spring is Tsai Ming-Liang: In Dialogue with Time, Memory, and Self (April 10–25, 2020), a full retrospective comprising 13 feature films and a selection of shorts. For close to three decades since his debut feature Rebels of the Neon God (1992), Tsai Ming- Liang (b. 1957) has built a contemplative body of work that ruminates on fundamental experiences of existence. Examining themes of solitude, alienation, and desire early in his career, and the passage of time, memory, and spirituality later on, Tsai observes life and, consequently, puts his inner self on display. A maverick who has stretched the limits of minimalism and cinematic stillness, Tsai’s celebrated work includes Vive l’amour (1994), The Hole (1998), Goodbye, Dragon Inn (2003), Stray Dogs (2013), and the North American premiere of Days (2020), among many others. In partnership with Participant Media, MoMA celebrates 15 years of Participant’s use of entertainment to incite and inspire social change with Participant at MoMA (April 29–May 17), a 15-film series highlighting the dynamic union of art and activism. Selections include Good Night, and Good Luck (2005), An Inconvenient Truth (2006), Food, Inc. (2009), Page One (2011), Middle of Nowhere (2012), Citizenfour (2014), The Look of Silence (2015), Spotlight (2015), The Post (2017), Wonder (2017), A Fantastic Woman (2018), RGB (2018), Roma (2018), American Factory (2019), and Collective (2020). And this summer, MoMA presents Forgotten Filmmakers of the French New Wave (May 27–July 6). The French New Wave of the 1950s and ’60s radically transformed the language of cinema. While its leading figures are widely recognized—over the years, surnames like Godard, Truffaut, Rohmer, Rivette, Chabrol, Varda, Resnais, Demy, and Marker have all been the subject of retrospectives at MoMA and beyond—there were many other New Wave filmmakers whose work has remained largely unsung. This major survey, including more than 30 features and 25 short films, will allow audiences to rediscover some of them, drawing upon the dictionary of 162 new filmmakers that appeared in the December 1962 issue of Cahiers du cinéma. Included among these is Alain Cavalier’s rarely screened L’insoumis (1964), starring Alain Delon, as well as other films relating to the Algerian War, including James Blue’s The Olive Trees of Justice (1961) and Jacques Panijel’s banned film October in Paris (1962). The series also includes female filmmakers of this period, including Paula Delsol and Yannick Bellon.

  • Jemma Purdey
    EPILOGUE Jemma Purdey This past December, I led a group of Australian students on a study tour to Indonesia, including a week of language and cultural immersion at a university in Bandung. The coordinators of the unit took the initiative to include a guest lecture in the program for our students and other for- eign visitors, as well as their own graduate students in Citizenship stud- ies. The topic of the lecture was Indonesian history and the Pancasila. As mine is a breadth subject open to enrolments from across faculties, in general my students had only a tacit knowledge of Indonesian his- tory. The lecturer delivered his rather dry account as a chronology of Indonesian “pre-colonial”, “colonial” and “post-colonial” history with a concluding discussion on Pancasila as national ideology. My students found this latter aspect of his lecture to be the more stimulating (the idea of a “national ideology”, particularly with religion as its starting point, as it seems a provocative one for young Australians). Personally, despite his comprehensive chronological listing of historical events com- plete with detail of lives lost in the colonial wars against the Dutch, what struck me was that there was no mention at all of “1965” beyond the 30 September Movement and Suharto’s triumphant suppression of it. Not of the mass killings and purges of Communists. Not even as a footnote. “1965” represents a period in Indonesian history roughly from 1965 to 1966 when an estimated half a million people were murdered (though some authors in this volume put this fgure higher, see in this volume © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2018 357 K.

  • Mutual Watching and Resistance to Mass Surveillance After Snowden
    Media and Communication (ISSN: 2183-2439) 2015, Volume 3, Issue 3, Pages 12-25 Doi: 10.17645/mac.v3i3.277 Article “Veillant Panoptic Assemblage”: Mutual Watching and Resistance to Mass Surveillance after Snowden Vian Bakir School of Creative Studies and Media, Bangor University, Bangor, LL57 2DG, UK; E-Mail: [email protected] Submitted: 9 April 2015 | In Revised Form: 16 July 2015 | Accepted: 4 August 2015 | Published: 20 October 2015 Abstract The Snowden leaks indicate the extent, nature, and means of contemporary mass digital surveillance of citizens by their intelligence agencies and the role of public oversight mechanisms in holding intelligence agencies to account. As such, they form a rich case study on the interactions of “veillance” (mutual watching) involving citizens, journalists, intelli- gence agencies and corporations. While Surveillance Studies, Intelligence Studies and Journalism Studies have little to say on surveillance of citizens’ data by intelligence agencies (and complicit surveillant corporations), they offer insights into the role of citizens and the press in holding power, and specifically the political-intelligence elite, to account. Atten- tion to such public oversight mechanisms facilitates critical interrogation of issues of surveillant power, resistance and intelligence accountability. It directs attention to the veillant panoptic assemblage (an arrangement of profoundly une- qual mutual watching, where citizens’ watching of self and others is, through corporate channels of data flow, fed back into state surveillance of citizens). Finally, it enables evaluation of post-Snowden steps taken towards achieving an equiveillant panoptic assemblage (where, alongside state and corporate surveillance of citizens, the intelligence-power elite, to ensure its accountability, faces robust scrutiny and action from wider civil society).

  • Julia Reichert and the Work of Telling Working-Class Stories
    FEATURES JULIA REICHERT AND THE WORK OF TELLING WORKING-CLASS STORIES Patricia Aufderheide It was the Year of Julia: in 2019 documentarian Julia Reichert received lifetime-achievement awards at the Full Frame and HotDocs festivals, was given the inaugural “Empowering Truth” award from Kartemquin Films, and saw a retrospec- tive of her work presented at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. (The International Documentary Association had already given her its 2018 award.) Meanwhile, her newest work, American Factory (2019)—made, as have been all her films in the last two decades, with Steven Bognar—is being championed for an Academy Award nomination, which would be Reichert’s fourth, and has been picked up by the Obamas’ new Higher Ground company. A lifelong socialist- feminist and self-styled “humanist Marxist” who pioneered independent social-issue films featuring women, Reichert was also in 2019 finishing another film, tentatively titled 9to5: The Story of a Movement, about the history of the movement for working women’srights. Yet Julia Reichert is an underrecognized figure in the contemporary documentary landscape. All of Reichert’s films are rooted in Dayton, Ohio. Though periodically rec- ognized by the bicoastal documentary film world, she has never been a part of it, much like her Chicago-based fellow Julia Reichert in 2019.

What roles do interventionist filmmakers play in processes of national reconciliation and transitional justice? Can The act of killing really be a catalyst for change in Indonesia?

  • ECON 3240 American Factory Workers in Chinese Factory Spring 2020
    ECON 3240 American Factory workers in Chinese Factory Spring 2020 American Factory is great documentary for us, mainly because it discusses how some can fall out of the middle class, becoming vulnerable if not poor, but then thanks to government policy (what government) claw the their way back into the middle class, keeping the Dream alive for themselves and their children we hope (IG mobility). It is also the almost universal story but a story of how workers and manageres learng by doing (aka learning by doing). For reasons that become obviout in the film the same factories and workers learn to do better overtime, like AI but not artificial, more of a group dynamic with input from workers and managers. Somehow workers can become much more productive over time, using lesst time to produce the same number of cars (or glass panels..). The makers of this documentatry sense this dynamic: the camera dwells on the machinery and workers converting sand (silicon) many shapes of very transparent glass (our Coa our Chinese owner entreprenuer writes a song about transparency, which could have two meanings, and Fu, see the Terry Gross interview below. We see the last GM S-10 truck role through the assembly line and we are off, new owners, some new workers from China and 2000 American workers, some from the GM plant that clased. To spread the pain/ privelidge we can the divide the 1 hour 50 minute file into three sectiosn. Everyone read the cast of characters below should watch the first 20 minutes (some of the key cast members are listed below, the huge factory building itself is a star…I thought it was in Dayton, Ohio but actually in another town, this happens when land intensive factories spring up near cities).

  • Citizen Snowden
    International Journal of Communication 11(2017), 843–857 1932–8036/20170005 Citizen Snowden ENGIN ISIN1 Queen Mary University of London, UK EVELYN RUPPERT Goldsmiths University of London, UK What kind of citizenship has Snowden performed? Apparently, it is not American citizenship because American authorities attempted to try him for treason and he became a stateless fugitive. After requesting political asylum in 21 countries, he was eventually granted temporary asylum in Russia. Neither states nor international organizations recognized his act as an act of citizenship. Did Snowden perform a citizenship that is yet to come? Did he perform an international citizenship? The issue of rights usually recognized in the literature on the debate about Snowden’s act concerns its content such as the practices of states spying on their citizens. This article focuses on the act itself as making digital rights claims that do not yet exist in law. We argue that just as Snowden’s act disrupted surveillance practices that evermore traverse national borders, it also called for digital rights and responsibilities that traverse national legal orders. Keywords: citizenship, performativity, international politics, digital rights I believe in the principle declared at Nüremberg in 1945: “Individuals have international duties which transcend the national obligations of obedience. Therefore individual citizens have the duty to violate domestic laws to prevent crimes against peace and humanity from occurring.” —Edward Snowden, Moscow Declaration2 Engin Isin: [email protected] Evelyn Ruppert: [email protected] Date submitted: 2016–03–29 1 We would like to thank two anonymous reviewers for their two rounds of comments that were incredibly helpful for strengthening our argument.

Currency is losing value. Army vets are unpaid – given promissory notes that are worth little due to inflation. Vets sell their notes to put clothes on their backs and food in their mouths. Economic slump of the 1780s had many sources: • Massive quantities of property were destroyed in the war. • Because men were fighting in the war, they were unable to perform their regular jobs. Economic output fell. • Enslaved men, women, and children emancipated themselves by leaving with the British or simply running into forests and swamps. This was a financial loss to their enslavers. • Britain refused to allow Americans to trade with British sugar islands in the Caribbean – one of the American’s greatest income sources.
