I just finished a new blog post: "The Apocalyptic Cinema of Panos Cosmatos." Basically, I use atmospheric theory, Bulgakov, Jung, Bonhoeffer, and Bataille to talk about the aesthetic of Cosmatos's films.

As a writer, or really just in general, I recognize that I am an incredibly weird guy. My guise of refinement is simply a side effect of my autism and it is often incredibly fortunate for me that my special interests relate to my coursework. Here is a recent example of my eccentric nature in an excerpt from one of my advertising courses.

Intro, best attempt:
Meghan, 44, biro demi. Like reading & listening to podcasts re: #language, #filmanalysis, lesser known #history, & bad people/ideas being proven wrong. Love #DavidBowie. My 8 yr old cat and I are currently mourning the recent loss of my 17 yr old cat*. BA in Japanese studies**, work in a bookstore, unrelated. I dig learning new things: currently studying #guitar and #tereoMāori (from a book). I like trying to understand complicated ideas, even when I can't.

Finally had enough time to write a new blog post about John Carpenter’s “The Thing,” unbounded consciousness, religious experience, and theology. I hope you enjoy (and that it isn’t heresy)

Reading SPACE CRAZE this morning back-to-back with the overview of New Wave and Humanist movements in literary SF in Ann and Jeff Vandemeer's BIG BOOK OF SCIENCE FICTION. Fascinating to see film SF haltingly follow literary trends.

I'm currently preparing a class on film analysis / filmmaking on Nomadland. I've decided to do it over the concept of 'American tradition', as Fern's sister refers to the nomadic life at one point. I want to bring some film references out, also part of other kind of 'American tradition', from which Nomadland also derives. For example: Stagecoach, The Searchers, The Grapes of Wrath, Thelma and Louise, The Road... etc. I want to keep it simple (not an advanced class) but there are so many options. At the same time, it's quite interesting, no?
Anyway, for my American and generally cinephile friends: any suggestions or ideas?
