ALPHA
The Öctagon still needed to expand in order to prevent the rebels from opening a path out of the controlled space. Weakened by a lack of non-artificial obedient working force, the mother system started developing self-efficient bots. Those were keeping the concrete jail automatically growing by itself, without ever stopping.

The Ace of Cups: San Francisco’s (Almost) Forgotten All-Girl Band by KQED Arts


The Haight-Ashbury of 1967 was a place of endless possibility: new ways of living, an influx of ideas, and political and cultural revolution were in the air. And yet amidst this “anything goes” scene, one band still stuck out as an anomaly.

The Ace of Cups didn’t set out to be an all-girl band. The group’s original five members — Mary Gannon, Marla Hunt, Denise Kaufman, Mary Ellen Simpson and Diane Vitalich — came together guided by the communal spirit that blanketed Summer of Love-era San Francisco. Up to that point, most all-female bands had worn matching outfits and played cover songs. But with original songs that reflected their circumstances, the Ace of Cups played with groups like The Band, Jefferson Airplane, and even Jimi Hendrix, an avowed fan.

Despite their impact in San Francisco, in the intervening years the Ace of Cups were relegated to footnote status, all but written out of history books. But now, having kept in touch, four of the five original band members are about to enter a new chapter. Watch above to follow their journey. – Text by Kevin L. Jones

The River: Beauty & Hate by Vadym Sapatrylo


Today I want to share a new video about a special place which evokes contradictory feelings. It’s impossible to not be entranced by the beauty of the Kremenchuk reservoir. At the same time, many hate it as a manmade imposition. It’s creation from 1956 to 1959 forced the residents of over 200 villages to abandon their homes without any assistance or compensation. On top of that, imagine the the feelings associated with knowing that the place of your birth, the place where your life’s memories are built has been literally washed off the face of the planet. In total, 212 villages were flooded and 133 people moved out of the valley. But this video isn’t about those people and their fate, but about the feelings, the emotions, that the water elicits.

Today the Kremenchuk reservoir is the largest in Ukraine with an area of 2252 km2 and a volume of 13.5km3
Despite knowing their history, I can’t help but admire these landscapes. They inspire me.

P.S. This video was unplanned. The large majority of the footage was filmed incidentally at different times over the course of the last year. Today it practically assembled itself into the short video before you now.

Enjoy!

Motion Pictures by Matthew Incontri


A boys love of action movies becomes his only outlet after facing a far more difficult battle in reality.

My thesis film at Massachusetts College of Art and Design that proved to be too large in scale to complete in just one year. Movies have always been an escape from reality, but sometimes they are a window into an experience scarier than fiction. The short animated film “Motion Pictures” explores the harsh reality of cancer and its effects physically and emotionally. Cancer is one obstacle that seems unsurmountable, but with a creative spirit, it is only fuel to create something bigger than yourself.
