KOYAANISQATSI
In the Hopi language, the word Koyaanisqatsi means 'crazy life, life in turmoil, life out of balance, life disintegrating, a state of life that calls for another way of living.
This movie is part of a trilogy, I'm very interested to see the other two: Powaqqatsi and Naqoyqatsi. Makes you contemplate the natural environment and the technological environment, old and modern ways of life, and relationships between human with nature and technology.

Dino dolphin love
Two friends, Jessica and Alex, whom I met in Tucson decided to make a stop motion film for the holidays (apparently me showing them some youtube stop-motion clips inspired them, yay to me!). Cute stuff, btw

Breakfast of Champions
Words of Kurt Vonnegut
"Patty Keene was stupid on purpose, which was the case with most women in Midland City. The women all had big minds because they were big animals, but they did not use them much for this reason: unusual ideas could make enemies, and the women, if they were going to achieve any sort of comfort and safety, needed all the friends they could get. So, in the interests of survival, they trained themselves to be agreeing machines instead of thinking machines. All their minds had to do was to discover what other people were thinking, and then they thought that, too."
"Like everybody else in the cocktail lounge, he was softening his brain with alcohol. This was a substance produced by a tiny creature called yeast. Yeast organisms ate sugar and excreted alcohol. They killed themselves by destroying their own environment with yeast shit."
"Kilgore Trout once wrote a short story which was a dialogue between two pieces of yeast. They were discussing the possible purposes of life as they ate sugar and suffocated in their own excrement. Because their limited intelligence, they never came close to guessing that they were making champagne."
