Danse Serpentine (1896)0:42, color, silent
| Early filmmakers loved dancers. I can't locate the source of this film, but iterations of the Serpentine Dance were particular favorites of both Thomas Edison and the Lumiere Brothers. Inspired by dancer Loie Fuller's famed skirt dances, in which colored lights projected onto her billowing garments, this film (and others like it) was hand-tinted to achieve similar affects. Fuller's solo was mesmerizing, and her copycat film subjects no less so. |
Hipparchia of Maroneia
I, Hipparchia chose not the tasks of rich-robed woman, but the manly life of the Cynic.
Brooch-clasped tunics, well-clad shoes, and perfumed headscarves pleased me not;
But with wallet and fellow staff, together with coarse cloak and bed of hard ground,
My name shall be greater than Atalanta: for wisdom is better than mountain running.
When she went into a symposium with Crates, she tested Theodoros the atheist by proposing a sophism like this: "That which if Theodoros did, he would not be said to do wrong, neither should Hipparchia be said to do wrong if she does it. Theodoros hitting himself does not do wrong, nor does Hipparchia do wrong hitting Theodoros." He did not reply to what she said, but pulled up her garment.[2]

The philosopher Hezickizek hopes fervently for a “Thatcher of the left”, and pays homage to strong leaders, in the New Statesman this week. I think the opposite: we need a movement to turn the world upside down without such leaders and their potential for authoritarianism and hierarchy.
Zizek, regarded as a leading “left” intellectual, explains his point with reference to Winston Churchill’s approach to military decisions: to boil down the experts’ analysis into “a simple ‘yes’ or ‘no’”._____________________________________________________
---------------------------------- As always he's (heZick) a sentimentalist living some fantasy of wha the imagines is the need, and thee case for otherS~ HE be wrong./people can decide for themselves and can think very well for their selves. People are not dumb ~
(he keeps yammering on about master this an masterthat its all masterbsturbations )
Im no t saying hes in bad faith hes just off the beat going the other way when most are trying to find ways to go elsewhere thinking different finding day to day answers and constructions of life and politics, and art....
