working
on some shibori - some interesting learning around dye has taken place - the chemistry
is fascinating and I feel will become part of some new research - looking
forward to exploring cross dying with devore sometime next week. back in the teaching
flow(ish) mass tutorials all round as the new terms start and one attempts to
support students on the last term of this yea. It's an interesting time to be
in education as I am told repeatedly that my role as a tutor teaching on a
creative course is worthless in the eyes of a government who appears to be
unable to organise itself. When
everything is measured in terms of money maybe we will all go wanting - I'm
reminded of Oscar Wilde and the thought of a man knowing the price of
everything but the value of nothing. so a collection of really interesting
films - for many different reasons - The
Wife https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3750872/?ref_=nv_sr_1
has a great twisted reveal and Glen Close's face is stunning as she acts all
the emotions at once. Beautiful Boy https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1226837/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_5
is a guttingly tragic tale - The drugs are almost a side issue as the film
peels back what is it to be a father? Sorry to Bother You https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5688932/?ref_=nv_sr_1
is totally bonkers - as if a sketchbook of ideas have all, yes all, been made
into one film. the hate you give https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5580266/
is all about rethinking privilege.
