POPSBob Dylan: "i was born very far from where i'm supposed to be"
As I walked out tonight in the mystic garden The wounded flowers were dangling from the vine I was passing by yon cool crystal fountain Someone hit me from behind Ain't talkin', just walkin' Through this weary world of woe Heart burnin', still yearnin' No one on earth would ever know They say prayer has the power to heal So pray for me, mother In the human heart an evil spirit can dwell I am a-tryin' to love my neighbor and do good unto others But oh, mother, things ain't going well Ain't talkin', just walkin' I'll burn that bridge before you can cross Heart burnin', still yearnin' There'll be no mercy for you once you've lost Now I'm all worn down by weeping My eyes are filled with tears, my lips are dry If I catch my opponents ever sleeping I'll just slaughter 'em where they lie Ain't talkin', just walkin' Through the world mysterious and vague Heart burnin', still yearnin' Walkin' through the cities of the plague. Well, the whole world is filled

POPSA Fascinating NDE "The Void is the vacuum or nothingness between all physical manifestations. The SPACE between atoms and their components. Modern science has begun to study this space between everything. They call it Zero point. Whenever they try to measure it, their instruments go off the scale, or to infinity, so to speak. They have no way, as of yet, to measure infinity accurately."

POPSwhat people's dreams were like before the cinema was invented ?? .. "The state of cinema IS a dream state. No known address. Occupied, dictated, created by no one. When it comes to moving goal posts, what art form could be described as more flexible than film?" "It was in Tarkovsky's Stalker that I saw an image of a dream that I have been visited by all my life made real (Does a thing have to be shared to be made real?). A bird flying towards the camera dips its wing into the sand that fills a room. Did I imagine this?" Each year, the Film Society invites one of the leaders in cinema to address the issues facing the film world today. In 2006, the State of Cinema address was delivered by the stunning, eloquent and provocative Tilda Swinton. given on Sunday, April 29, 2006 at the Sundance Kabuki Cinemas. warmly recommended 2 read it all !!

POPSa Uni Verse in Black and White Yes, I know this road will take me nowhere There's no reason I should go there I should turn and walk away. I know every pebble on the path As I knew coming back Would only bring me sadness Still I stay, what can I do or say To end this love's enchantment I deny it, I avoid it It bewitches every single step I take With the same sad facts and sorrows Like an album of old photos I can't bring myself to put away Still the fool I was so long ago I look for answers where I know I've only found despair before. I relive the days of madness Sleepless nights, the poems, the sadness, Still I cannot turn away There's more for me to say This is my sin. I bring them down into the light These photographs in black and white Yes, that's the way it always starts I add a sonnet to my sad collection Words of sorrow and dejection Etched upon an aching heart. Another sonnet for my sad collection Full of sorrow and dejection To abuse my broken heart. (English version b

POPSThe Jazz Baroness the love story of Nica Rothschild and Thelonious Monk Among the most compelling segments is the story of how Nica and Monk met. Then married, Nica was introduced by a friend to Monk?s “?Round Midnight,” which would become one of the most recorded jazz standards of all time. “I couldn't believe my ears,” she recalled. “I'd never heard anything remotely like it.” Nica set out to find Monk, finally meeting him two years later. Interestingly, for all the mutual love and devotion that developed between them, some speculate that their relationship was essentially platonic. Monk remained married to his wife, Nellie, who seemed to embrace the unusual love triangle.

POPSNew kind of Art ? Crochet and Knit Graffiti Magda Sayeg, founder of the original knit graffiti crew Knitta Please, works to redefine a craft that has been relegated to the stuffy attic of people's brains and dismissed by a limited vision for knitting's purpose, its function, its practitioners. Sayeg's work repositions this granny pastime in public spaces, streets formerly dominated by a hard, masculine public art culture. The fuzzy tags invoke entirely different connotations, antagonizing expectations and initiating dialogue about community-driven art and intersections between art and craft.
