Don’t have much to offer at the moment unfortunately—but I did doodle him crying earlier today! Yay! :D

there it was. there it is … the song of gloom filling the evening air. i can’t seem to figure out this particular feeling of sorrow. is it the motion of moving forward? moving on? i suppose the reality of our memories don’t seem to exist in these 66 seconds of her lullaby. my love for you re-emerges and the feelings of some beginning becomes suspended. here is where i find the love i buried deep within the earth — hidden furthest from you. her words become my own and my heart loses sight of the present moment. here is where i yearn for your companionship, missing the warmth of your presence

or rather the idea i orchestrated of you.

Carmy is the walk-in - the fridge guy is a therapist - the T is for therapy

(Tony, Tom, Tim, Terry)

Song: ‘Changes’ - Charles Bradley

The fridge is his self preservation and we experience The Bear from Carmy’s perspective and it’s very reminiscent of Bella and Edward; blue af and cool toned like ice, coldness and glaciers like his eyes.

The renovation is the staff removing the toxicity (mouldy walls) and rebuilding.

They are the pots and pans that were ‘barkeeper-ed’ into a second life (science baby).

The one person that didn’t receive the barkeeper’s treatment was Carmy - he was resistant to the change, he starts seeing Claire in a last ditch effort to revel in the past and stops the Al-Anon meetings and so he’s regressing and like the handle of the walk-in he’s still broken.

The one thing everyone agrees on from the show runners to the actors to Natalie to the fandom is that Carmy desperately needs fixing via individual therapy.

Carmy is the fridge that needs to be fixed and he never calls the fridge guy. . .never goes to therapy

•••

Somehow he’s both the fire and the ice; things necessary in the running of a kitchen. His love for his family and friends is the fire but he’s also cold, hardened, frigid because of the hand he was dealt in life (a more eloquent, poetic writer kindly run with this).

So maybe in the last season of the show they’ll have to get a new walk-in installed or maybe not because having experienced trauma we don’t just get to replace our old selves, no, ultimately we keep working on ourselves; fixing bits and pieces as we march on - by replacing the handle, changing the shelves, installing new lighting etc.

It’ll be funny if Carmy’s actual therapist is named - Tim, Terry, Tom - visual reaction below:

I loved look back

That’s it that’s the post

Ok for realsies Look Back is one of my favorite films, I was sobbing through the entire back half. As an artist, a writer, and as an aspiring director, I was touched by the story, of that struggle to improve, of wondering why you’re still drawing after setback after setback. The relationship between Kyomoto and Fujino was so realistic and heartfelt, I got so invested in their struggles. I don’t fully understand the ending, but I get the sentiment, of continuing to draw for the people who look at your art and love it.

Luckily, the theatre I watched it in has a special interview with the director and main VAs after the movie, and I learned a lot from it. With AI Art being such a worry throughout the entire art industry, I appreciate the directors decision to keep in all the tiny imperfections, the raw lines, the small design changes of the characters throughout the film, to show the passion, the emotion that goes into every piece of art someone draws.

Show your appreciation to whatever art you love, it will make that artists day just a bit brighter.

el cuerpo como dispositivo de procesos

el agua en sincronía

las promesas devienen en aciertos

me recuesto en las piedras calientes

me arden los ojos de llorar

suspiro

gracias por las enseñanzas

Death of Yazdgerd (1982) dir. Bahram Beyzaie

[hannahwashington]

just had a dream about a zombie apocalypse but it wasn't gritty survival or anything like that. sure, i specifically was kept under super tight protection for whatever reason (maybe i was immune or smth, idk) but it was more carefree or relaxed than anything else. bittersweet, if i were to put a word to describe the dream as a whole. a moment that i think is gonna really stick with me is that zombies broke into the base, and even though everyone killed them all, the integrity of the base was compromised, so we had to leave. instead of packing up and leaving and never looking back, we took a few pictures together. we left some inside the base to be discovered. by the front door, someone left a note that said, "thanks for all the good memories and the protection. hope you serve someone just as well or even better in the future, because I dare to hope we have one. and maybe, one day, you will no longer be thought of as a base, or a compound, but a home." and then i woke up with a tight feeling in my chest.

THIS IS AN EARLY CUT NOT THE FINISHED PRODUCT.

This is my first time translating something so please let me know if there are any mistakes, thank you.

Yo, Daru here, I want to share this short film I watched two years ago during a talk with Víctor Gaviria (acclaimed Colombian director). When I saw it I thought that many people on this site might be interested in it so after 2 years I finally decided to put English subtitles on it. It was a graduation project by its director, who later refined it and submitted it to some short film contest, where it received great recognition.

Even during the talk, Víctor Gaviria praised it, as topics like virtual identity are rarely explored in the Colombian scene and have immense narrative potential. Unfortunately, this is not the version I saw during the talk, but a much earlier and shorter cut than the final one (you can tell by some editing mistakes, which are really common in early cuts of audiovisual projects). The version I saw during the talk was much better, longer and had more narrative elements like she saying she's an actual pirate and playing with that through the film, but this is the only one publicly available thanks to the repository of the University of Antioquia, I still think it is good and pretty solid short film even though it is incomplete.

This short film led me to one of the greatest introspective experiences I’ve ever had because, to be honest, I saw myself on it. The truth is, I’m someone who loves looking back, just like the short film says. Hoarding files is one of my hobbies, I love exploring obscure corners of the internet to find new files about things I like. I started to reflect about the way I keep everything to myself without showing it to anyone, my reluctance to talk about these topics... all of this made me learn a lot about myself.

I searched for this short film again because I’m working on a script that touches on similar themes so I took the opportunity to share it here as I had thought a lot about this site when I saw it that time. My script doesn’t focus 100% on virtual identity, but it plays an important role in the story, and this short film is a solid reference. Plus, it's Colombian, which makes it even more special (to me).

I hope you like it =)
