THEMES FINAL END DONE VOTE MAKE IT MAKE IT HAPPEN

class and hipsterism is banned from the list, these are the ones left:

1. CHANGES IN HISTORY BOOKS (that have or haven't happened yet)
2. FUTURE PERIOD FILMS SET IN THIS TIME (what they will look like and deal with topically)

theyre both great what should we do? put it to a vote?

in other news....



"It is self-evident that nothing concerning art is self-evident anymore, not its relation to the world, not even its right to exist. The forfeiture of what could be done spontaneously or unproblematically has not been compensated for by the open infinitude of new possibilities that reflection confronts. In many regards, expansion appears as contraction. The sea of the formerly inconceivable, on which around 1910 revolutionary art movements set out, did not bestow the promised happiness of adventure. Instead, the process that was unleashed consumed the categories in the name of that for which it was undertaken. More was constantly pulled into the vortex of the newly taboo; everywhere artists rejoiced less over the newly won realm of freedom than that they immediately sought once again after ostensible yet scarcely adequate order. For absolute freedom in art, always limited to a particular, comes into contradiction with the perennial unfreedom of the whole."

  4. Dictator schmictator. That Adorno quote would have been a nice point of departure for some serious thought about class and hipsterism.
