#also gianni voices ppl in M:PN???

How would you feel if they took the script that Peter Falk pitched for "Columbo's Last Case" a bit before his dementia diagnosis and had it animated using an impersonator as the voice of Columbo? I can't decide if it would be a good tribute to him and the character or if it would come off as a cash grab because of Columbo fever among Gen Z.

i don't know 😔 i enjoy ppl like gianni just for the funnies (and also because he voiced one of my posts lmao) but as for a whole episode with a voice impersonator?? i feel like no one could ever truly nail all of columbo's little details and idiosyncracies like peter falk could, and that's why i'm iffy about the concept of any kind of reboot/remake of the show in general. he put so much of himself into the character that anyone else trying to act as columbo could only be that: an impersonator. i do believe that with a great deal of care it could be done respectfully, but no matter what it just wouldn't be quite right without him 😔😔

Sallttyyyy!!!! I was just scrolling on twitter and heard that the MPN game got updated and Doc is just now getting voice lines? His voice is completely unexpected to me, I have to say that his laughs are creepy but I love it 😳 it’s already living rent free in my head now,,,oh god,,,,, https://twitter.com/galogk123/status/1534955650958118917?s=21&t=8WmTdZ9VJMtep-ajs00RVg

OMG FINALLY!! It's about time, thanks for bringing this to my attention Anon. :D Here's the vid, in case y'all don't use twitter (I literally made one just to view it, no regrets lmao)

[All the credit to @galogk123 on Twitter, they're out here doing god's work.]

Also wow, his voice is a lot deeper than I was expecting, jesus. 😳 It fits really well though, especially his laughs. I hope we get a full vid of his voicelines soon à la youtube or something like that, he's playable in multiplayer so I'm guessing he has additional dialogue as well.

Following Social Media Criticism, #MeToo Artwork at Art Basel Removes Image of Assault Victim

https://umseen.com/?p=15254 Following Social Media Criticism, #MeToo Artwork at Art Basel Removes Image of Assault Victim Press image of Andrea Bowers’s Open Secrets, presented by kaufmann repetto, Andrew Kreps Gallery, Susanne Vielmetter Los Angeles Projects (courtesy Art Basel © Art Basel) Following widespread criticism on social media, Andrea Bowers’s installation at Art Basel has removed a photograph of Helen Donahue, screengrabbed from a tweet made in October 2017 that included an image of the writer’s body and face marked with bruises. Donahue is a writer who was one of four women who accused Michael Hafford, a former writer at Vice’s Broadly and “Male Feminist Here” columnist, of sexual assault. Bowers’s installation, called Open Secrets, outlined the allegations against men who had been outed as abusers in the #MeToo movement, including film producer Harvey Weinstein, and former Artforum publisher and co-owner Knight Landesman. The artwork, priced at $300,000, was part of Art Basel’s Unlimited section, curated by Gianni Jetzer. After learning about the installation at Art Basel via social media, Donahue wrote in a tweet: “cool that my fucking photos and trauma are heading art basel thx for exploiting us for ‘art.’” She continued, “DO YOU KNOW HOW FUCKING INSANE IT IS TO FIND OUT MY BEAT UP FACE AND BODY ARE ON DISPLAY AS ART RN FOR RICH PPL TO GAWK AT THRU A STRANGER’S INSTAGRAM STORY.” She requested that individuals contact Jetzer to demand the work be removed, and was met with an outpouring of support. why wouldn’t she work directly w consenting victims ? i dont — 🤦🏻‍♀️ im so sorry helen — 🌼🤘🏽 Wild Chamomile 🤘🏽🌼 (@GigiHernandezz) June 11, 2019 A cool move would have been to not only reach out to the victims but include them in the show if they agreed to participate. So that y’alls voices were the ones amplified. — ariana delawari (@arianadelawari) June 11, 2019 This morning, the Art Newspaper reported that the panel including Donahue’s image would be removed. “I, Andrea Bowers, would like to apologize to the survivor whose image was included in my piece. I should have asked for her consent,” the artist said in a statement sent to Hyperallergic. “[Donahue] has asked that the panel including her photo be removed and I have honored the request. I have reached out privately and am very much looking forward to listening.” View this post on Instagram We’re excited to present Andrea Bower’s work “Open Secrets 1 & 2” @artbasel #ArtUnlimited in collaboration with @capitainpetzel @kaufmannrepetto, @vielmetter. On view from June 10 – June 16. Open Secret documents the important cultural shifts represented by the #MeToo and Time’s Up international movements against sexual harassment and assault, which spread virally following public revelations of sexual misconduct allegations against Harvey Weinstein in 2017. The work contains approximately 200 photographic prints, each of which lists the name and occupation of an accused person, as well as their response to the allegations, printed in the typeface in which they were originally published. This project serves as both a physical manifestation of patriarchy and a monument to the courage of survivors who are speaking out against sexual harassment and assault, thereby making public what many repeatedly said were “open secrets.” The work was researched, designed, written and produced in collaboration with: Kate Alexandrite, Angel Alvarado, Ryan Beal, Carey Coleman, David Burch, Miriam Katz, Zut Lorz, Julie Sadowski, Ian Trout, Ingrid von Sydow #AndreaBowers A post shared by Andrew Kreps Gallery (@andrewkrepsgallery) on Jun 8, 2019 at 8:50am PDT The work was presented by kaufmann repetto, in collaboration with Capitain Petzel; Andrew Kreps Gallery, and Vielmetter Los Angeles. In a joint statement, the galleries said that they “would also like to issue an apology to the survivor pictured in the piece. The galleries stand by Andrea Bowers and her work and support the conversation that has only just begun.” By: Hyperallergic https://umseen.com/?p=15254
