Join Beka, Jia Ching, Jene, Lynn Stone, and company for drinks. I'm in town tonight - leaving tomorrow. Would love to see anyone who can make it.

Here's a review of the Homestead from Yelp.com:

I walked into this joint and immediately felt at home. The wallpaper reminded me of an old Parisian bordello. The bar was reminiscent of a gold rush saloon. The customers ran the gamut from greasers, to crusty old Irishmen, to yuppies. There was a fire crackling in the fireplace in the corner. Peanut shells cracked under my feet.The barmaids were slightly surly, which I appreciate.

Oh crap, if this combination of flavors is where I feel most at home, I had a most questionable upbringing.

But really, this place rules. Big time. And it's in one of the best neighborhoods in town. Mine. http://facebook.com/event.php?eid=8354434861 2008-02-09T02:00:00-05:00 Please join us at The Change You Want To See Gallery as filmmaker Jem Cohen screens excerpts from Chain (2004), Lost Book Found (1996), and selected shorts. Q & A to follow.

“The enlargement of a snapshot does not simply render more precise what in any case was visible, though unclear: it reveals entirely new structural formations of the subject.” --Walter Benjamin

Filmmaker Jem Cohen doesn’t need to smack you over the head with speeches or movie stars or coincidence-driven scenarios to make his point. Instead, he draws it out in the artifacts, detritus, and details of the city. On the one hand he presents the fragments of a periphery that normally go unseen. But rather than bringing a lost landscape into new focus, Cohen manages to bring it into an indistinguishable blur. It is in this shift from the particular to the universal that we can locate a radical politics.

Crafting Protest

The New School, Theresa Lang Community and Student Center

55 West 13th Street, 2nd floor, New York City

Many contemporary artists are using craft as a largely unregulated place of protest where diverse and timely political statements are being made. This panel is presented as part of a series of talks on “Agency” and proposes that crafting, because it is so often social and communal, plays a vital role in the public sphere. The speakers examine the role of craft in forming national identities, especially in times of political turmoil or war; notions of patriotism; feminism and the domestic sphere; and economic models that circumvent conventional market models.

Greenpeace's fastest ship, the Esperanza, has been chasing the Japanese whaling ship for 5 days now, over hundreds of miles through fog and increasingly rough seas. We successfully drove the factory ship Nisshin Maru from the hunting grounds where they hoped to kill 1000 whales, including 50 endangered fin whales.

All whaling has stopped -- for now.
