http://thepoliticalpagan.blogspot.com/2015/02/needed-real-sharing-economy.html
This is a blog that comments on both Paganism and politics in the United States, from a leftist-liberal point of view. Sunday, February 15, 2015. Needed: A REAL Sharing Economy. We who are the majority of humanity need a NEW economy, one that better distributes the proceeds of economic activity for the benefit of all. The response of those in the elite and of conservatives, libertarians and free-market fundamentalists is to scream, "Impossible! And of course, "That's not the way it is! It’s in Minsk.

To remember what is true forever. We dedicate ourselves to light. And in the wind. We are warmed by a fire within. We have come together. To remember what is true forever. And in the dark. We will raise a timeless spark. We will answer that ancient call. To remember what is true forever. In our hearts the light.

This is a blog that comments on both Paganism and politics in the United States, from a leftist-liberal point of view. Friday, December 12, 2014. Remember what happened to the Occupy Wall Street protests of Fall 2011? On the very same day in November of 2011, the mayors of many cities activated their police in a coordinated, nation-wide effort to sweep the protestors out of the public spaces where they were conducting their peaceful protests. What was their crime? Labels: Black Lives Matter. And its not ...

Week 4: The Language of Photography – Whose Language? | serendipityscraps
https://serendipityscraps.wordpress.com/2013/02/19/week-4-the-language-of-photography-whose-language
A Visual Anthropology Blog. Week 4: The Language of Photography Whose Language? I have always tended to envision photography (the visual) and language (the verbal) in terms of a relationship, rather as an exchange in the sense given by Victor Burgin, in which photography is a complex of exchanges between the verbal and the visual (in Mitchell, 1994: 282-3 [1]. While browsing through the POYi (Pictures of the Year International) the 70th Winners list [2]. Which is not accompanied by language? And if you m...

Week 9 Play and Revelation: Rouch’s Chronique d’un été and Mads Brügger’s Ambassador | serendipityscraps
https://serendipityscraps.wordpress.com/2013/04/14/week-9-play-and-revelation-rouchs-chronique-dun-ete-and-mads-bruggers-ambassador
A Visual Anthropology Blog. Week 9 Play and Revelation: Rouch’s Chronique d’un été and Mads Brügger’s Ambassador. In this film, the anthropologist, Jean Rouch, and the sociologist, Edgar Morin, explore the ground of cin. Specifically it can be claimed that the movie is an etno-fiction because of the open script that explores this central motive of acting naturally or challenging the naturalness in front of the camera. This leads to a second point of view, which is the revelation. Although, this veils the...

Week 6: The Fiction of Reality. Through Vertov’s ‘Kino-Eye’ | serendipityscraps
https://serendipityscraps.wordpress.com/2013/04/12/week-6-the-fiction-of-reality-through-vertovs-kino-eye
A Visual Anthropology Blog. Week 6: The Fiction of Reality. Through Vertov’s ‘Kino-Eye’. Watching Vertov’ Man with a Movie Camera. For the second time, I found it strangely ethnographic in the sense used by Vaughan (1992) [i]. Namely, Vertov in the position of a cine-anthropologist , but paradoxically not because of his neutrality in documenting ( Documentary and its obsession with realism ) but more because of his structure of reality through editing and montage. Extract from Vertov’s Manisfesto –.

Week 5: Ways of seeing. Photo Wallahs | serendipityscraps
https://serendipityscraps.wordpress.com/2013/03/10/week-5-ways-of-seeing-photo-wallahs
A Visual Anthropology Blog. Week 5: Ways of seeing. Photo Wallahs. MacDougall’s text opened up many viewpoints on photography’s ‘play’ with the ways of seeing. Specifically, imagined as a mirror that doubles us, photography is considered a form of representation that lacks mediation but still, it becomes hard to tell if the represented self is the real lasting one or just temporary that re-identify us. Within these lines, MacDougall mentions two types of photographies. On the ‘cemetery culture’ in Ukrain...

A Visual Anthropology Blog. Week 8 Observational Cinema: Tim Ash, Maysles Brothers, Frederick Wiseman. This was by far my favorite session in the Visual Anthropology class because of the screenings’ ‘marathon’ that began from the same start line: the debate around cinéma verité. Or the observational cinema, understood mainly as direct cinema or being without a narrator’ voice. After the Ax Fight , we watched some extracts from Salesman. 2003) and The Yes Men Fix the World.

A Congress of Baboons. Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s March 15 Speech. March 21, 2016. The main event this year was the second Teachers’ Protest, which drew large crowds to Kossuth Square and ended with a threat of a one-hour strike in case the Prime Minister and the President fail to apologise for the way education is and was handled by the government. That’ll teach them, a full hour of striking! Fortunately, Hungary Today. Has made a full English translation (thanks! Well, let’s begin:. Just as then in ...
