Blogs seemed like yet another internet timewaster to me, in the same league as social networks sites, RSS feeds, trackers and Twitter. And to start a blog in 2009, is really tired - especially for somebody like me who has written on all things internet for more than a decade and used to think of himself as ahead of his time, not as the last one to pick up on internet fads. When working on a book on the independent cinema of Southeast Asia, it occurred to me that a site that trusses the material on Southeast Asian cinema (that is few and far between on the internet) could actually be quite useful. That is about the scope of this endavour: to collect links to the few articles that come out on cinema from Southeast Asia. Before I moved to the Philippines in 2004, the only film from this part of the world that I had ever seen was Bobby Suarez? grindhouse martial arts movie Cleopatra Wong, and I had no idea that this was a movie from Singapore/Philippines, just something vaguely Asian. But then again, where did this catholic convent come from? (I have since written a lengthy paper where I argue that Suarez? films from the 1970s are an early attempt at filmic globalization.) The Philippine mainstream movies that I watched on the plane to Manila (Jologs and Lastikman) did not exactly wet my appetite for more of the same, and I think in my first year in the Philippines I saw only one other local film. At that time cheap digital cameras had just become available in the region, and soon young film makers, that would have never been able to make a regular, studio-financed film, started to make low-budget independent films. Some of these films started to make the international film festival circuit, a very few did even well in the local cinemas. (See an article I wrote in my first enthusiasm about all this here.) I got hooked. After writing about the internet, and in particular about net.art from the mid-90s onwards, I found myself entangled in yet another digital revolution. As I started to teach at the Film Institute of the University of the Philippines, I had access to one of the best collections of Philippine movies anywhere. (Only a handful of classic Philippine films are available on regular DVD, most of them without subtitles, so I was very lucky to be able to see all these old films. And to have students at my disposal who I could make translate films from Tagalog as a retribution for lateness and other tardiness, he he?) I took a class on Philippine film history with my friend and colleague Rolando Tolentino, and gradually started to learn about the amazingly rich and multi-faceted film history of my host country. At the same time, I travelled a lot and made it a point to pick up as many DVDs and VCDs (an obscure video disk format only in use in Asia) as I could fit in my backpack in countries like Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia or Cambodia. Other film scholars and movie buffs that I got to know during these travels and at various film conferences supported my research by providing me with copies of hard-t0-get films from their own collections. And I started to write on the subject, both for academic and for popular publications. I never wanted to have a blog. But now I wish I would have started it four years ago to document this learning process, and write about the films I saw, the festivals and conferences I attended, the conversations I had with film critics and colleagues. As I am about to leave the Philippines and relocate to Cambodia, I finally decided to get started. I am very grateful that I was given the opportunity to learn about (and to actually see!) these movies. The films from Southeast Asia are internationally more or less unknown, but I ended up being quite fascinated by how these films negotiate the local and the global: homegrown dramatic and narrative traditions on the one hand, and the suppossedly international language of cinema on the other hand. In that sense, they might be among the most important cinematic comments on a post-colonial and globalized present, and that does not only go for the contemporary independent films, but also from the movies of the 1950s and 1960s that often engage in much more direct way with the effects of colonialism than one would expect from movies that aimed first and foremost to entertain. There are huge difference in terms of film culture between the different countries of the region. But to me they all seem to share the desire to come to terms with the contradiction of trying to develop a national cinema in a post-national world. I hope with this blog I can somehow pay back my debt of gratitute for having access to the slightly esoteric world of Southeast Asian cinema, and provide a useful service to people interested in cinema from the region.

(See below) *Visions Critical Forum 2009: Collecting Moving Images.* Sunday 24-05-09 3pm - 5.30pm. The *Critical Forum* is a pivotal event within *Visions in the Nunnery*. Its aims are to explore the practices that shape the production, exhibition, and distribution of the moving image as well as establishing connections between practitioners, their audiences and collectors. This year the Critical Forum will focus on the collection and circulation of the moving image. Topics of discussion will include cultural and economic concerns; the dynamics of private collections, educational archives and changing technologies. The speakers will share their personal experiences and expertise in the field, and activate an open discussion with artists and viewers. The Forum will be chaired by *Cinzia Cremona* with invited speakers: *Myriam Blundell*, *Lucy Bayley* (Contemporary Art Society, London), *Chris Meigh-Andrews*, *Michael Maziere* and *Neil Cummings*. *The body and the beholder Myriam Blundell May 2009* This year?s thematically curated section of Visions in the Nunnery features three artists whose work is mainly concerned with the pursuit of an ideal of beauty most notably derived from the perfection of physical appearances and the exhibition of immaculate and faultless volumes, shapes and proportions. In an age shaped by virtual realities and populated by cyberspace communities, in which elaborate and faultless creatures are designed to please the deepest recesses of our desires for physical perfection, the contemporary portraiture of beauty in the human body has shifted like never before in the history of aesthetics. Traditionally grounded in innate, physical qualities, this shift has become increasingly subject to cultural specifics and individual interpretations. In *EXerciseS EXerciseS EXerciseS*, *Isabelle Arnoux* captures the obsession found in western societies for a specific set of rapports and proportionality. The on-going search for a definition of the Beautiful is evoked in *Lessons* by *Karen Knorr*, where she applies the perspective of nature and its divine laws, that of science and its Cartesian rationale, and ultimately that of Art and its utopian pursuit of the Ideal. The human body is celebrated for its canonical beauty but also for its ephemerality and submission to the cycles of life. Equally fascinated by the effect of the passage of time on the human psyche and condition, *Michael Nyman*?s *Slow Walkers* observes a succession of old men and women walking very slowly in the busy streets of urban life. His piece reflects on the lessons learned from the wisdom of age and the temporality of the human body, as a means to achieving a higher state of consciousness. The idea of borrowing the human body as a vehicle to communicate with the unknown and the divine is also explored in Nyman?s second video work entitled *Zoor*. Zoor is a sequence of footage shot in Iran in 2003, featuring a group of body builders performing a sequence of Zoor Kahn, an ancient form of Iranian Martial Arts. The focus in Nyman?s narrative is shifted from the physical to the spiritual, from the beautiful to the divine, and from the transient to the eternal. *Biogs:* *Cinzia Cremona* is currently working towards a PhD on video performance and how moving image works establish relationships at University of Westminster, where she is also a member of the Experimental Media Research Group.

Is there a special mailing list for participants who were in Split? Or are the participants automatically added to this list? For those of you who were interested in the Aether9 project which I presented, more information about the project is at: http://1904.cc/aether/ When I looked at my messages this morning after returning home from Split, I found a message from the official Tetra Pak UK in my youtube inbox. They are planning a section on the official Tetra Pak website in which people can embed their youtube videos of fun things they do with cartons. And they would like to put my video there, together with some other videos, as an example to get people started making their own videos. This is my video 'How to make a recycling money wallet' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRKGNFsEHYs I wrote some background information about the tetra pak purse at: http://hubpages.com/hub/recycling-wallet I'm actually nicely surprised that a big company picks up the creativity in the youtube community in such a way. There are many great youtube videos on 'things to do with empty cartons', but I hadn't expect a big company to offer an opportunity to include them in their company website. Here is the website where they will include the videos: www.tetrapakrecycling.co.uk Okay, maybe it is just a marketing tool to make their website more interesting, but I think it is a very positive way of creating a bigger audience for their website.

Video Vortex V is announced for November 20-21 2009, and will be hosted by the Cimatics festival. Previously Video Vortex conferences were held in Brussels, Amsterdam, Ankara and Split. With this second Brussels meeting the goal is also to set up Video Vortex as an organised network, making it more sustainable. Let this be a first general open call for participation. But keep an eye on the list for a more detailed call soon, with deadlines and specific themes. Submissions can be sent to the email adress below or uploaded through the online submission form at cimatics.com/entries (category: 'Video Vortex') For any further questions, recommendations or remarks you can contact me at bram.crevits at cimatics.com or just reply to the list. Looking forward! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

To me this online video too. Maybe it's time to upset the tech heavy Seesmic world a bit. There was also an idea to do a debate in Brussels about Seesmic type video dialogues.
