BRUTAL RESONANCE was kind enough to sit and chat with me about the new ep WE DESERVE EXTINCTION, the video for WILD TURKEY, SWEAT AND MADNESS, the importance of being original, future plans for 2021, and more.

Structuralism and Semiotics

What is Structuralism?

Structuralism is the study of how meaning is constructed and understood. The basic idea behind structuralism is that individual and collective behaviors emerge from some underlying structure.

Susan Meiselas

Susan Meiselas, president and co-founder of the Magnum Foundation was born in 1948 in Baltimore Maryland. She attended junior high school in Woodmere, New York. She earned her BA in 1970 from Sarah Lawrence College and a MA in visual education from Harvard University, where she was a student of Barbara Norfleet. She received Honorary Doctorates in Fine Arts from the Parsons School in 1986 and from The Art Institute of Boston in 1996. After earning her degree from Harvard, Meiselas worked as an assistant film editor on the Frederick Wiseman documentary, Basic Training. From 1972 to 1974 she worked for New York City public schools, running workshops for teachers and children in the Bronx and designing photography curriculum for 4th–6th graders. She also worked for the State Arts Commissions of South Carolina and Mississippi setting up photography programs in rural schools. She also worked as a consultant for Polaroid and the Center for Understanding Media in New York City. Her first major photography project documented strippers at New England fairs and carnivals, which she worked on during summers while teaching at the New York City public schools. The project resulted in an exhibition at the Whitney Museum and a book, Carnival Strippers, which incorporated audio interviews with the subjects on a CD packaged with the book.

MOLOTOV MAN

This picture was used to raise a popular militia. They hoped to associate Molotov Man’s image with the Spanish Civil War-era anti-fascist slogan NO PASARAN- “they shall not pass”. Eventually, other artist began to take part of the image and use it for their own benefit. For example, Joy Garnett (painter) only painted the man throwing the bottle and named it “Riot” which was exhibited in a museum in New York. Joy soon after received a letter from Susan’s and her attorney regarding her painting and be given the proper credit. Even a multimillion dollar corporation such as Pepsi was using this image as a promo for the campaign “it’s your revolution”. 

I personally believe that you should always ask to use someone’s idea if there’s money involved. If you plan on taking or using someone else’s idea(s) to sell your own work then asking for permission is the best way to go. Artists always know when they're pushing the boundary of “inspire” or “steal”.
