This rotting, rusting roundabout may not have turned for decades. But it still resonates with the shrieks of children’s once-upon-a-time hi-octane, dizzying adventures. Faster! FASTER! #TwentiethCentury #archaeology #Abandoned #Places #Playground #BlackAndWhite

When Picasso died at the age of 91, 50 years ago tomorrow, #theGuardian called him the most influential artist of the 20th century. Today, Picasso is more often talked about as a misogynist and cultural appropriator, the ultimate example of problematic #whiteguys clogging up the #artistic canon.”

@classicalmusic Just dug out and listened to my copy of Pierre B conducting Music for Strings Percussion and Celeste. I hadn’t heard it for a long time. Totally forgot about the fugue subject coming back in the last movement. What a moment. It knocks your socks off. #socks #bartók #music #strings #twentiethcentury #orchestra #fugue #boulez #vinyl #records #classicalmusic #hungary

MOVIE QUOTE OF THE DAY:
“Owen, I was aiming at myself. He grabbed the gun away from me and shot me. That's the final irony . . . Killed by a lunatic!!!”

I find the #ChineseRevolution fascinating, including #MaoTseTung and the so-called #GreatLeapForward or #CulturalRevolution and all it did. So far everything I've learned is how awful the Cultural Revolution was, and it seems a true and a fair assessment. But, everything I've found are Western accounts (see the video below) and not Chinese. I'm curious how the Chinese understand it.

'Ghosts of #Antarctica' is a reflective short film I made a while ago when the first facial animation #ml #ai systems came out, mixed with a bit of roll-your-own. The idea was to use these conjunctions to bring new life and emotion to the faces of #Australian #Antarctic scientists and explorers of the #HeroicEra in the early #TwentiethCentury. I loved the idea of seeing them looking back upon what they had achieved, the relationships between them (sometimes problematic) and a kind of fictive memory. An homage to the remarkable work of pioneering Australian cinematographer, #FrankHurley (1885-1962), 'Ghosts of Antarctica' uses #DeepLearning approaches to colourise and animate images from 100-year-old glass-plate photographs and film footage taken by Hurley and others during the 1911-14 #AustralasianAntarcticExpedition. #DigitalHeritage #DigitalHumanities #DigitalHistory #DigitalGhost #DouglasMawson
