something to see ...

I saw, so what?
what I liked, distancing images, places, cultures, histories recounted in a single day, from sunrise until the zenith and ending in bed, the sun rises every day everywhere, it seems scary all these people on one small planet!

intimate blend of images, small stories of life firmly addicted to life, those are usually curled in Digger shot media where everything is human suffering and horrors ... mounted in parallel images of this photographer guy in Afganistan and the young American's pending interview webcam with her husband went to the front of Afghanistan ... etc, etc..
All points of view diverge at the same time (hence that it is in "realtime", there is a temporal narrative that manages surely have us believe)

mulitude A portrait of life autofilmés. .. can once again feel the weight of the mass media and the money we spent to stupefy the brain, and to divide and conquer, to build walls on our cultural differences rather than uncovering them. This is the challenge, I think of it this cinematic experience. It is the power of this tool is the internet, too.

Touching, surprisingly filling.
