Here are some photos from my latest NYC area bookstore discovery (a couple of mins away from Manhattan - driving/by bus, etc) - B&F Books in West New York, NY - at 6-60th St.  Here's the store on Facebook .  And here's their website w/ link to their massive Amazon collection (for those who like to shop at Amazon).  You can call them at the store at 201-663-1751 about Special Events, sales, visiting the store/store hours, to sell your books, etc.  The Store * The Owner - Lawrence Arteaga (who is brave for attempting to run a real life/physical bookstore, though many are closing around the country due to the popularity of internet book selling)  * The Neighborhood - Beautiful!  Saw some amazing visuals that I need to work into my next movie :)  Great sights of NYC from West New York, NJ.  This photo was taken a few feet away from the bookstore. *  Seen inside the store :) * Lots of books! * My find of ...

I heard about a new film called Mother's Day recently.  Film is being completed and should be released in 2016.  Here's the IMDb page for the film . And here are several articles about the film: http://www.cinemablend.com/ new/Christina-Ricci-Joins- Susan-Sarandon-Mother-Day- 31257.html http://www.hollywoodreporter. com/news/susan-sarandon-eva- amurri-martino-321685 http://deadline.com/2012/07/ sharon-stone-joins-mothers- day-296104/ http://screencrush.com/susan- sarandon-eva-amurri-mothers- day/ http://deadline.com/2014/09/ mothers-day-casts-paul-wesley- keiynan-lonsdale-john-ortiz- to-star-in-disney-the-finest- hours-841424/  From the Cinema Blend article on the film (from 2012): "Mother's Day  is described as a drama, and seems to bear no relation to other recent "Day" movies ( Valentine's Day, New Years Day ), with Duddridge's past credits appearing to be focused mainly on television. But it looks like the movie is alre...

Interesting - "Warhol’s filmmaking was motivated in large part by his fascination with individuals, but he was also driven by his desire to capture the actual experience of living. As he wrote in his book, POPism: The Warhol ‘60s: “What I liked was chunks of time all together, every real moment…I only wanted to find great people and let them be themselves…and I’d film them for a certain length of time and that would be the movie.”"  Read the rest here . - S

Race was an idea developed and used in America to support slavery.  Post-slavery race and other ideas, and practices and institutions that supported slavery, were not fully dismantled.  Instead those things changed names and went underground a couple of levels, and continued to operate in American society.  This is why that now, in 2015, we have two levels of wealth, freedom, and justice in America (as made clear by the many cases of unjust violence against African-Americans by the police, the wealth disparity between Whites and Blacks, the massive Black prison population due to harsher sentencing for Blacks).  There exists in America now one level of opportunities, wealth, freedom for Whites and a lesser one for Blacks. Obviously this is not a good idea - given the fact that it is a source of harm and pain for millions of people in America and a source of unrest which interferes with the quality of life and peace for all.  Also, the continued existence of the i...

Ou basée sur la géographie des identités - africains, asiatiques, européens - ou identités de religion ou philosophie base - musulmans, hindous, chrétiens, platonicien, existentialistes, et d'autres identités sont tous identités fabriqués par opposition aux identités naturelles.

How to Change Your Group Identity By Sujewa Ekanayake Introduction Most group identities are manufactured.  Identities such as racial identities - White, Black, and other such identities are manufactured or human-made identities.  Or geography based identities - African, Asian, European - or religion or philosophy based identities - Muslim, Hindu, Christian, Platonist, Existentialist, and other such identities are all manufactured identities as opposed to natural identities. A natural identity would be the fact that you are an individual human being or the fact that you are a man or a woman.  Natural identities are true whether labels created by society for the purpose of organizing and controlling people exist or not.  For example, you would still physically be a human individual even if no other humans were around to identify you as a human individual.  However, this is not true for manufactured social identities or political identities.  For e...

So what are some well known art making mediums?  Paint on canvass certainly.  Film projected onto screens certainly.  Luckily for those of us alive in the present, and who want to make art, a lot of us are now, on a daily bases, logged into new art making mediums.  A Facebook post can be art - take a photo of it, frame it, done! :)  An Instagram photo can be art.  A Tweet can be art.  It all depends on how you think about what art is and what art mediums are. Almost anything can be art.  As long as an artist is making it or the end product has some art qualities.  Making a sandwich can be art.  The end product - the sandwich - can be art.  Paying bills can be art - if properly documented and presented to the public.  Writing down dates or painting them can be art - see this exhibition by work by On Kawara for proof . Make art everyday.  Interact with the ordinary, daily world at a deeper, more creative level.  Mi...

Review of Independent Ed, career autobiography by Ed Burns Review by Sujewa Ekanayake Ed Burns is a survivor.  His story is, in part, a fairy tale story of great, unexpected highs and lucky breaks. Independent Ed tells the story of Burns making his debut movie The Brothers McMullen  - which won the Grand Jury Prize at Sundance , acting in Steven Spielberg’s epic World War II movie Saving Private Ryan , making the digital feature Newlyweds for $9000 and tales of many filmmaking and acting adventures in-between and after. While there are many moments of luck and several breakthroughs in his story, one very useful aspect of it is how Burns perseveres through repeated challenges, several failures, and much uncertainty and keeps going after the thrill of making a movie - represented by his magical 12 days of making McMullen.  Independent Ed is a how-to on making one’s own luck through hard work, persistence, and surviving the low points of a filmmaking car...
