i did break and have a minor fuck-up moment where they asked if we had merch we wanted them to sign but the only thing i own that i brought down with me from my apartment that isn't a shirt from the ocean is my shirt from arctangent which at least has their logo on the back jfkgjk so even though i adore that shirt and wear it all the time (thank fuck i'd washed it recently) i gave it up to the sharpie gods so i could get smth autographed, where it will forever live in the back of my closet. the fuck-up being that i said the "sorry this is kind of silly" thing even as i was actively telling myself not to and paul was like "what do you mean silly it's fine! why's it silly, give me a thousand word essay on why it's silly" like paul i can give you a ten thousand word essay if you let me start 😭 he laughed when i told him that and then we talked about the festival for a bit while the other guys were signing it but i thought i was going to die of mortification, i had been doing so well before theeeennnnn. thankfully(?) my sister had a similar moment later and my brother was chill as a cucumber as usual so it evened itself out. and i made a friend with the other person that came to do the pre-show thing, which was also cool!

IOWC as Counterinsurgency

There’s good reason to believe that the One World Crusade of the early 70s Unification Church in America was an attempt to both gather intel on anti-war groups, to hijack anti-war demonstrations, as many of their tours were coordinated with anti-war demonstrations and their events often occurred at such demonstrations or nearby, and to recruit from their fold. The government was actively trying to de-radicalize the increasingly revolutionary students and youth of the US. Many of the centers at the time were in college towns and were attempting to be friendly with leftists and anti-war organizations in deceptive ways, including hiding their religious beliefs. Many of these organizations could see through the Moonies in short time. At the time, the US government had a lot of coordinated efforts to gather intelligence on these organizations, which follow very similar tactics to the IOWC. Understanding that the UC was paid by the FBI in the 80s to spy on and sabotage the activism of El Salvador solidarity activists, it seems very probable that this was the case.

Sean Paul: Tiny Desk Concert Bobby Carter | May 31, 2024 The vibrancy that bounces off the screen while watching Sean Paul’s Tiny Desk concert is undeniable. Hearing his voice just a few feet away was an overwhelming experience, and I overheard a few NPR staffers in attendance who agreed. “He sounds just like the record!” they said, moving like nobody was watching. Admittedly, we don’t host enough dancehall artists at the Tiny Desk so there was an element of surprise at play. But the Jamaican superstar’s catalog boasts some of the world's biggest party anthems; it should've been a no-brainer when working with that. “This ain’t no Tiny Desk no more,” Paul said as he strutted to the Desk, preparing to turn the office into a bashment party. Paul took reggae and dancehall to new heights in the early 2000s. After hopping on any and every riddim for the clubs and dropping his debut, Stage One, the breakthrough came with his second album, Dutty Rock, in 2002. The global reach of that album shifted the music industry and everyone from the biggest pop star to the grimiest emcee needed the Sean Paul effect on their albums. For his set, the game plan was simple, all gas and no breaks; energetic hit after hit including “Gimme the Light”, “Get Busy,” “Like Glue” and topping things off with “Temperature.” SET LIST “Gimme the Light” “Get Busy” “Infiltrate” “I'm Still in Love With You” “Deport Them” “Like Glue” “Temperature” MUSICIANS Sean “Sean Paul” Henriques: lead vocals Nigel A.

MY COUNTRY, 'TIS OF THEOCRACY

Now playing at Harkins Shea:

God & Country--Produced by Rob and Michele Reiner and directed by Dan Partland, this documentary about Christian Nationalism in American politics is impassioned but lucid and not hysterical. Based on Katharine Stewart's book The Power Worshippers: Inside the Dangerous Rise of Religious Nationalism, the movie is presented as a warning to secular or non-evangelical citizens for whom the propaganda and political agenda of that movement may be largely invisible.

The talking heads here are mostly Christians themselves, ranging from Russell Moore to Reza Aslan to Jemar Tisby to Kristin Kobes du Mez to Sister Simone Campbell to Bishop William J. Barber II to Veggie Tales co-creator Phil Vischer. They speak calmly, even a little sheepishly, but firmly and with an indisputable insider's perspective, and their message is: Christian Nationalism isn't about religious practice; it's about amassing political power.

It's not exactly breaking news when we're informed that Christian Nationalists are terrified of and enraged by feminism, LGBTQ rights, secular education, uncensored libraries and abortion rights, or that the movement is historically connected to racism and segregation. But too many people may not grasp the degree to which Christian Nationalism's ultimate aim is a non-democratic, Christian-supremacist America, and the startling degree to which it's making progress.

In support of this, Partland shows us copious clips of wild-eyed rants by Evangelical heavy hitters stating these aims in no uncertain terms. A comedic highlight comes when, in the midst of one of the movie's many montages of preachers bleating and screeching, we see Robert Jeffress say, with a straight face, "We cannot be silent any longer!"

Partland also works to debunk some of Christian Nationalism's favorite falsehoods, notably that America was intended by the Founders as a "Christian Nation" or that the Separation of Church and State is not found in the Constitution. Attorney and author Andrew Seidel observes here that true religious freedom is impossible without Separation of Church and State.

By way of emphasizing its urgency, the movie also notes that Christian Nationalists were central agents of the January 6 Insurrection, despite the irony of President 45 as the object of their veneration. "When I was a young Evangelical minister," notes Faith and Action founder Rob Schenck, "we used Donald Trump as a sermon illustration for everything a Christian should not be."

God & Country shares a twofold difficulty with many other worthy progressive political documentaries. First, though well-organized and smoothly edited, it's full of unavoidable footage of the likes of Ralph Reed, Jerry Falwell, Paul Weyrich, Greg Locke, Pat Robertson, Jim Bakker, Kenneth Copeland and Paula White, not to mention 45 himself, that can be painful for many of us to watch no matter how necessary. Secondly, many of the people who most need to see this movie probably won't watch it. To employ a more than usually apt cliché, it's preaching to the choir.

HYSTERESIS | Robert Seidel | Soundtrack by Oval from Robert Seidel on Vimeo.

HYSTERESIS Experimentalfilm Cinemascope 2K, color, 2.35:1 Dolby 5.1 D 2021

Film: Robert Seidel Music: Oval Performance: Tsuki Title Design: Bureau Now 5.1 Master: David Kamp Funding: FFA Filmboard Special thanks to Miriam Eichner, Carolin Israel, Falk Mueller and Paul Seidel

In tech companies, universities and artist studios, machines work through and learn the history of mankind. Copyright dissolves; distinctions between original, imitation or inferior reproduction erode. No origin, no responsibility, no clear bias - just a primordial soup that can be transformed into any form without questioning knowledge systems and hierarchies. In this silent, but radical restructuring of entire industries, the artist becomes a template of a future that is digitally assembled from a myriad of fragments of the past.

In the experimental film Hysteresis, Seidel’s analogue drawings and digital processing merge with the queer performance of Tsuki, whose movements improvise between Ballet, Butoh and Berlin club culture. In a fusion process, her image is recorded, fed back through Seidel’s devices and then projected onto her body. An expanding digital sphere beyond labels and identifications with gender, culminating in dehabitualised neural patterns and reconceived fabrics of intimacy beyond rational understanding. In a final step, the resulting sessions are edited and dissolved by machine-learning strategies into a constant flow of pulsating images and folded spatial configurations. The resulting Muybridgean silhouettes, baroque textures and bursting structures fluctuate between the second and third dimensions, unfolding free-floating gestures that unhinge the laws of nature. Meanwhile, delicate abrasions of the pictorial frame build bridges into contradictory concatenations of reality. The soundtrack by Oval (Markus Popp) incessantly corrodes this dense web of associations, threatening to dissolve the remaining fragile points of reference.

At a time when an overriding predictability is forced upon us all, the film celebrates the disruption of pattern recognition and the artistic corruption of results induced by artificial intelligence, specifically machine learning. With Hysteresis Seidel explores new grounds in his experimental practice and collaboration. Unveiling a frenetic, delicate and flamboyant visual language, that speaks to the hysteria and hysteresis in this historical moment. The artist wants to open a discourse about these unique modes of AI creation – with implications beyond the film and other media, to that singularity, where history collapses into a single point in the present.
