In this installation, YesYesNo teamed up with The Church, Inside Out Productions, and Electric Canvas to turn the Auckland Ferry Building into an interactive playground by enlarging projections of viewers' own body movements onto the five story building. With music.

Great series for seeing the economic big picture:

Spoiler:Just read on the Washington Post that the IMF is suggesting that Obama cut spending, by cutting (privatising?) Social Security, increasing retirement age, as well as screwing honest people who pay over principle on their mortgage debts, etc, etc... Like Clinton, he will comply and try and pass it through.

Where's Michael Hudson and real economics when you need them...

I have just got my hands on something wonderful and precious. It is five computer drives containing the unedited rushes of everything shot by the BBC in Afghanistan over the last thirty years.

It fills 18 terabytes of space.

Linda Minor:
Russ talks about the BP oil blowout and reads from his book about the oil connection to the Gammell family of Scotland--Ivory & Syme. Cairn Energy was operated by Bill Gammell. Bill Gammell went to prep school with Tony Blair at Edinburgh. Blair's partnership with Bush helped to form the "coalition" in taking out Saddam. BP was a big part of the plan.
Russ also goes into the reason he was fascinated by what Bush was doing on Nov. 22, 1963--because he had said previously he could not remember where he was that day.

I almost dropped this in the Favorite Film Clips thread in the Lounge, but it doesn't quite fit there. A montage of clips, very well edited together. So here it goes.
