as usual releasing the images and sets from issue 16/2 that just have not seen the light... I will also send some teaser magazine pages soon... TRUE BELIEFS, COTTON LACE, CRACKED TIMBER AND RUSTIC BREEZE model Domini ig @dddomini muah Aneta Lozkova make up and hair styling stylist Karolina Koblen photography Tink M Lockett ig @uniquelytinkphotography location: Prague, Radic www.zamek-radic.cz ATTENTION TO ALL CREATIVE MINDS: photographers, actors, designers, writers, models, artists, stylists, MUAHs, artistic directors.,.. and others alike there is the challenge described: In his absorbing web series http://www.dictionaryofobscuresorrows.com/ , writer and editor #JohnKoenig gives names to deep longings and vague feelings in the form of brief, beautiful videos. Subtitled "For lack of a better world". Koenig tries to create a better world by calling attention to sensations that made you think, "maybe it's just me, but…" His ' The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows' is a compendium of #InventedWords. Each original word and its definition aims to fill a hole in the language - to give a name to emotions we all might experience but don't yet have a word for. The author has a ferocious curiosity about the art and science of being human, especially language, mythology, poetry, and the natural world. His dictionary has been acclaimed by New York Magazine, Washington Post Express, author John Green, blogger Jason Kottke, and the guys from Radiolab Podcast. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26JK_Xw_laQ we used many of Koenig's amazing words before as the inspirational key words for our magazines in the past. the next word is MOMENT OF TANGENCY Moment of Tangency: A Glimpse of What Might Have Been https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxOuG6zQo_0&t=58s ETYMOLOGY A tangent is where a line 'just touches' a curve, sharing the same angle for a bit before carrying off to infinity TRANSCRIPT You and I have never met, many times before. Our paths might have crossed once or twice online, or passing in the street, We might've lived in the same neighborhood all our lives, but against incredible odds, we just happened to miss each other. It's a big world, after all. Our days must be filled with these chance encounters, that for a million tiny reasons, never actually take place. Accidental strangers, who just happened to miss their cue. who share everything in common, except for time and place. For years, their stories might've been happening in parallel, harmonizing from somewhere across the world, but neither has any idea that the other even exists. If two lines are truly parallel, it means they'll never actually meet. It's hard not to wonder where they are right now, veering away on a tangent, in some parallel universe, Hard not to glance at a stranger in a crowd, and imagine the life you might have shared, if things had been different, and feel a pang of missed connection as you carry on your separate ways, leaving nothing but an echo of something that might have been. You never know how many things had to happen exactly right for you to meet the one you love, You never know how easily fate might have tipped you onto some other course, meeting some other person, who would feel like a soulmate. Maybe you'd still be telling your friends it was always meant to be, As if you knew all along that your paths would cross. Or maybe you'd look back at your life and realize: it was nothing personal-it's all just a coincidence. ANNOUNCING COMPETITION on the best concept / style photograph or set of photographs that will fit into the category "MOMENT OF TANGENCY " with the focus on TALENTS MEETING EACH OTHER IN THE CROWD : be it photographer and the model, fashion designer and the canola blooming field, they are the moments of the talents finally meeting each other in a shared dream...

Amy has a chance encounter with Theodore, a childhood crush who proposed to Jo but was ultimately rejected. Their oldest sibling, Meg, is married to a schoolteacher, while shy sister Beth develops a devastating illness that brings the family back together. please read our review published: http://bohemianrhapsodyclub.weebly.com/la-premiere.html trailer: Transitions Film Festival Melbourne invites you to see a new scientific documentary called #IAmHuman https://www.cinemanova.com.au/films/tff-i-am-human Following the courageous journeys of the world’s first “cyborgs” – a quadriplegic, a blind man and a woman with Parkinson’s, I Am Human covers the ways science is cracking the mysteries of the brain and using them to solve huge problems in people’s lives. The documentary unpacks the emerging complexity, real world possibilities and imminent implications of merging machine and human intelligence. A female-directed and produced sci-fi documentary, I Am Human explores the co-evolution of humans and technology. There are several hundred thousand people in the world with implantable technology in their brains. By the year 2029, that number – based on industry estimations – is expected to triple. The film follows the harrowing and courageous journeys of three of the world’s first “cyborgs” and the scientists and entrepreneurs on the cusp of unlocking the secrets of the human brain. Shot on anamorphic lenses and with unparalleled access to the breakthrough technologies that will change the course of humanity, I Am Human aims to give the audience a front row seat to the future – and bridge the divide between sci-fi storytelling and real-world aspiration. In the film, meet Anne, Bill, and Stephen. Bill, paralysed in a biking accident, signs up for a mysterious research study in hopes to regain movement. Stephen, a former Canadian government IT officer, undergoes a novel bionic eye implantation to regain sight. Anne, a former artist with degenerative Parkinson’s, considers deep brain stimulation as a solution to her worsening symptoms. As we follow their three journeys, society is forced to reconcile with the larger implications: will the same technologies that heal disease and dysfunction lead to super human abilities, telepathic communication, and cognitive enhancement? In addition to the primary characters, the film features institutions including The Wyss Center, Duke University, Case Western Reserve University, University of Washington, BrainGate2, and Second Sight and interviews with entrepreneur Bryan Johnson, neuroscientists John Donoghue, Andres Lozano, David Eagleman, Andres Lozano, Bobby Kasthuri, Chantel Prat, and Miguel Nicolelis, surgeon Robert Devenyi, sci-fi author Ramez Naam, ethicist Tristan Harris and professor of law and philosophy Nita Farahany, amongst others. “When I began as a neuroscientist it was impossible to imagine that curiosity to figure out the greatest puzzle of what it means to be human – brain research – could lead in my lifetime to a whole field that will have vast impact on humanity,” says Director of the Wyss Center for Bio and Neuroengineering, Dr. John Donoghue. “I think a fundamental understanding of a principle by which the brain computes will be one of the greatest revolutions in scientific history.” *This film has been exempt from classification and is restricted to people over 15 years. People under 15 must be accompanied by an adult please read our review published: http://bohemianrhapsodyclub.weebly.com/la-premiere.html trailer: Icon Film Distribution Australia invite you to see a new romantic comedy called A Guide to Second Date Sex Film in cinemas February 13 Laura and Ryan have been totally destroyed by previous relationships.

Many believed his downfall was challenging the newly elected president Vladimir Putin. During his decade in a Siberian prison, Khodorkovsky became a world-famous dissident. Today, exiled in London, he continues to battle Putin’s 19-year hold on power. With this exquisite cinematic portrait of Khodorkovsky, prolific documentarian Alex Gibney utilises more than 20 hours of interviews with the man himself, as well as conversations with Khodorkovsky’s friends and enemies. The result is an engrossing exploration of his life: from his years as a young communist youth in the Soviet Union, to his days as a ruthless oligarch – and Russia’s richest man – in the capitalist 90s, to his transformation into the outspoken opponent of the Russian regime that he is today. From his exile in London, Khodorkovsky works tirelessly on his Open Russia initiative, which denounces Putin and encourages democratic reforms in his homeland. More than a character portrait, Citizen K examines power in Russia and unlocks many of the political conflicts and contradictions ailing the country today. please follow Alex First review published: http://bohemianrhapsodyclub.weebly.com/la-premiere.html trailer: The Backlot Films invite you to watch a new war drama called Escape and Evasion https://www.thebacklotfilms.com/works/escape-and-evasion in cinemas March 5 After his men are killed in Burma.

Created during a culturally formative period in Japan between the catastrophe of the 1923 Kanto earthquake and the devastation of World War II, the exhibition will present traditional Japanese motifs juxtaposed with modern designs, highlighting two rare large-scale works by exceptional yet under-recognised women artists and leading avant-garde designers and illustrators of the era. Showcasing rare paintings and colour woodblock prints, street posters and magazine designs, Japanese Modernism will also highlight innovative fashion - including kimonos for women and men displaying playful contemporary designs - as well as accessories embracing Art Nouveau and Art Deco design elements. Decorative arts objects will be presented across beautifully-crafted glassware, lacquerware and bronzeware, with over 100 pieces of Japanese cut glass on display, with geometric and nature motifs inspired by Japanese traditional design. “The culmination of a five-year collecting period by the NGV, Japanese Modernism offers exclusive insight into an era of Japanese art that is yet to be widely discovered by Australian audiences. With all of these works being exhibited in Australia for the first time, this vibrant collection of modernism captures the spirit of a rapidly evolving country and its exuberant youth,” said Tony Ellwood AM, Director, National Gallery of Victoria. In the 1920s and 30s, Japan underwent major redevelopment and its cities were filled with department stores (including the iconic Mitsukoshi), cafés, teahouses, movie theatres, ballroom dance halls and modern transportation, catering to a new generation of urban pleasure seekers. With an increase in international travel, the influence of new technologies from abroad and a lively consumer culture took hold of the country. In Tokyo, the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Imperial Hotel - which survived the devastation of the city’s great Kanto earthquake in 1923 - provided the backdrop for the reconstruction of a modern capital that delivered a new-found sense of optimism to its younger generation. In 1924, Japanese publisher Hoshino Seki (of the Gahōsha publishing house) commissioned The Great Taisho earthquake and fire, a set of 36 colour prints created by six different artists, depicting scenes from the aftermath of the earthquake. Three years later, the fast-paced development of Japan’s capital was celebrated by graphic artist Hisui Sugiura in his iconic work The first subway in the East 1927, which paid tribute to the opening of the first subway in Tokyo and Asia. In 1935, Japanese artist Taniguchi Fumie created her trailblazing work Preparing to go out (Yosoou hitobito). Taking inspiration from the 17th century Matsuura screens, the artist created a large sixfold screen capturing changing attitudes towards women, consumerism and fashion in the early 20th century. Despite making huge progress in her artistic practice during the 1930s, Fumie had her burgeoning career cut short after she evacuated to the countryside to escape the final bombing raids of World War II. Leaving Japan in the early 1950s, Fumie was never known to paint again and eventually settled in Los Angeles, where she found work as a waitress, seamstress and maid. With life progressing at a rapid pace, women relocated from rural areas to the cities to secure jobs and a liberated lifestyle. This transformation of Japan’s social norms led to the first generation of financially independent women and female artists being recognised in Japan’s traditionally male dominated art world. The self-assured, highly fashionable women of the modern era were captured in many artworks of the time including Tea and coffee salon, Sabō 1939 by Saeki Shunkō and Waiting for Makeup 1938 by Negishi Ayako. Japanese Modernism will be on display at NGV International from 28 February – 4 October 2020. Free entry. Further information is available via the NGV website. Elice Thomas had a chance to visit the exhibition. We will release her review shortly.
