    Oh, now Max & Stacy have done gone visionary again. On my second time thru this show ’cause I wasn’t sure I heard what I heard while going to sleep yesterday and by golly, you said everything I thought you said. Of particular interest were your musings on Hollywood/Nollywood, newspapers, and virtual currencies. Hell, the whole show rocked. I think my brain might just explode.

    Whats pleasing to see about those photos is the image quality – its still excellent which tells me they were probably taken on Kodachrome :

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kodachrome#Archival_stability

    A lot of colour processes like RA4 (most common photo print) fade even stored in the dark such images have to stored at minus 20 and in controlled humidity for longevity. This means much of our visual photo culture will fade into oblivion and those people who collect photo art and pay serious money for colour photos would do well to find out what process was used.

  37. @frances snoot

    Ok, I will.

    btw have bin doing some thinking lately about the SDR also and I still think it isn’t duable one rate for the whole world simply doesn’t work look at the mess in Europe now. It’s all wishfull thinking in providing an escape route from the sinking dollar it won’t work and I am going to tell you why.

    First of all they’ve been talking about this idea since the mid seventies (see article under) the same as they’ve been talking about abolishing gold all together from the system. They wish.

    Look at Europe now where you have the problem of one currency standing in the way of what used to give a much easier solution when all the national currencies were still in place.

    Greece could have simply defaulted or have a devaluation of it’s currency but look what other fine mess has been build up now in greater debts which halts future growth expectations.

    Not good at all.

    So if you would place this idea on a world currency you can understand this would create even bigger problems and why should you?

    Furthemore the SDR will still be partly based on the dollar and maybe the other “better’ currencies will lift the SDR up but what good does this do for the emerging economies? Non.

    It undermines the trust of the SDR and here we come to the most important point of any currency; Trust. So the SDR will be an half baken solution only benefiting the jobs at the IMF but this hardly will be enough and most dollars are hold outside the U.S. by China and Japan.

    It’s all from a manical obsession of this New World Government with one currency and one rate but this simply won’t work.

    I mean, if it doesn’t even work on a much smaller scale now in Europe let alone in the whole world.

    Like said it’s more of an U.S./IMF escape route to try to burn the dollar vessel leave it behind and step over on the SDR ship but it’s not as simple as that cause America is not alone and don’t hold all the dollars.

    So I see it more as a desperate attempt to save their own skin just like the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and the upcoming one probably in Iran.

    The Emperor has no clothes and Washington is highly delusional. The “great game” is over and the music stopt hours ago but the thought of still hearing the echo makes them believe it’s still there.

  38. • The planned disclosure of the ET presence Bonn

    Any such “ET” would be an impersonation, probably of demonic origin.

  39. damn matt damon – so cute – why does he have to be gay? me

    Oh come on. According to the homos, everyone is homo. So, chances are that if Matt Damon denies being a homo then he isn’t.

  40. @flicks I do prefer @me – it’s supposed to remind you of your focus – paola sounds like a human beeing – not quite there yet

  41. @Tofu,….I’m assuming Napoleon is referring to himself in that particular quote ?

    NAPO. Chamorro name, derived from the vocabulary word napo, meaning “wave.”
    LEON ,..
    http://www.behindthename.com/name/leon

  42. @tofu charlie – that’s nothing watch me on red bull – besides I prefer bolex can you get any cheaper? hmm why do unmad people bore me – maybe because of lack of ideas and criticism smells stagnant – apart from the focus on the negative which is downright depressing

  43. Ka-pow! George Galloway tells a (UK) Sky News readerbot how “silly” she is:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6QImuSo2eo

  44. @Dedo… pretty sure an inspiring wilderness guy like you would agree with Napoleon: “The great proof of madness is the disproportion of one’s designs to one’s means” :-)

  45. @flicks why not a little black and white probably bolex or red – there might be models in between – just like the name red. paolA (blond bimbo)

  46. And on cinematography there are many great but starting with him would put you in good stead :-

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vittorio_Storaro

  47. @ Max & Stacy
    Ya guys are sooooooooooo wrong about Zynga Face book and tat nonsense
    Wait and watch next 1 Ear is gonna be interestin

  48. @Tofu,..RE: Trolls,.

    Yes!,…they’re a pain in the butt, I agree, especially when one is engaged in, intelligent conversation,…(thank the heavens nothing like “that” seduces them on this forum!)
    They tend to kill ideas,..as mother has stated,…LOL

    BTW: How would a mad man know he’s mad?

  49. Paolo3 –
    “I would suggest the Canon Eos 5d Mark 2 at the moment. It creates a H264 codec which is highly compressed but looks great and many say it actually looks better than the Red. Both give great depth of field (shallow) if you want to make nice pictures. You would however need to record sound seperately, i have an olympus LS5 which is great (like a zoom H2 but better) and can also use an external mic. You would need a clapper board (maybe too much stress for some doc filmers but if you want a good aesthetic its worth it). Its a lot cheaper than a Red.”

    Correct on the cost of RED camera’s – but I had hiring in mind .

    depth of field – its the focal length of lens and size of aperture (hence light level) which relates to the depth of the field of focus:-

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_of_field

    Camera’s with smaller sensors would have better depth of field but at the moment lesser image quality.

    The Canon is essentially a stills camera but they are bridging the gap and its an interesting development for photography – high frame rate and higher asa with maintained image quality allows for more dynamic use of a stills camera – on the move.

    Budding film makers with a low budget would do well to check out Nick Broomfields work and technique.

  50. @Farang….The US has 6, 4 star generals …thailand has 600…fact im sure your aware…..I wonder whos more cut throat Ours or the jingle bell generals they got over here?

  51. @ Stacy & Max
    Tis guy supposedly got Access to the Vatican Library which I have been askin yas to investigate

    There is much, much more. Here is a very general list of the subjects we discussed:

    • The probable (in Dr Peterson’s strong opinion) collapse of the economy, infrastructure, and law and order in the US
    • The planned disclosure of the ET presence
    • The Aurora (now retired from service and replaced by vehicles capable of superluminal travel) and the TR3B (the large flying triangle, which functions as an aircraft carrier)
    • Artificial intelligence and advanced robotics
    • The “information field” and how the body, the mind, and DNA really function
    • Healing modalities which work very rapidly and effectively
    • ‘Rescuing’ brilliant scientists out of the old USSR
    • How Mir (the Russian Space Station) was so heavy that it could not have been assembled without ‘help’ from our ‘friends’ (or, to be exact, the Russians’ friends)
    • Time spent in the Vatican Library
    • The existence of Sumerian high technology
    • Quantum computing (off-camera, Dr Peterson held in his hand a cheap quantum chip, which he had assembled himself in his own laboratory, with the computing power of 10,000 PCs)
    • The genius of James Clerk Maxwell, and why Einstein was wrong
    • Why you should not spend too much time in front of your new Digital TV
    • The reality of the US prison camps
    • How President Obama was (in all probability) set up
    • How he came to understand that 15% of the world’s population (of all races) have ET ancestry that can be seen in their DNA – and are also resistant to mind control technologies.

  58. farang’s famous “Moron of the day” alert:

    “This letter [to Senator Barbara Boxer of California, farang] is from a National Guard aviator and Captain for Alaska Airlines named Jim Hill. {oh, he must really be a VIP: captain is capitalized!!! farang]

    Babs:

    You were so right on when you scolded the General on TV for using the term, “ma’am,” instead of “Senator”. After all, in the military, “ma’am” is a term of respect when addressing a female of superior rank or position. The General was totally wrong. You are not a person of superior rank or position. You are a member of one of the world’s most corrupt organizations, the U.S. Senate, equaled only by the U.S. House of Representatives.

    [can't find anything to disagree with here, farang]

    Congress is a cesspool of liars, thieves, inside traders, traitors, drunks (one who killed a staffer, yet is still revered), criminals, and other low level swine who, as individuals (not all, but many), will do anything to enhance their lives, fortunes and power, all at the expense of the People of the United States and its Constitution, in order to be continually re-elected. [ Khun Jim seems to be batting a 1000 right now, way to go Jim!!!!!]

    Many Democrats even want American troops killed by releasing photographs. [EEEEEEEEERCCHHHH!!!! WTF??? Full stomp on the brakes, heads snap forward. Jim, I have no idea what ALL Democrats "want." I am unclear how you can be so specific, where you get the knowledge that ALL Democrats "WANT Americans troops KILLED", but I will be happy to read your link or proof offered. Me? I am no Democrat, I am no Republican..I am an American.

    An American fucking ASHAMED by illegal invasions and occupations of countries that have NEVER done my country ANY harm, while witless POS pilots label Americans for a Free and Open society as "wanting Americans killed." One where War Criminals RAPING and MURDERING and TORTURING the very ones we are euphemistically state are "Liberating" are tried and convicted when evidence is presented, instead of labeled fucking heroes, got that Jimmy Boy? farang]

    How many of you could honestly say, “We pledge our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor”? None? One? Two?

    ["sacred honor"...is that what you what call the US military does? International corporate policies enforced at gunpoint is more like it, Jimmy Boy. farang]

    Your reaction to the General shows several things. First is your abysmal ignorance of all things military. [ Um, Jimmy, civilians run the military in the Constitutional Republic, as much as you hate that notion, being a fascist and all. farang]

    Your treatment of the General shows you to be an elitist of the worst kind. [As opposed to US Generals stating "my god is more powerful than your god", right Jimmy Boy?] When the General entered the military (as most of us who served) he wrote the government a blank check, offering his life to protect your corpulent derriere, now safely and comfortably ensconced in a 20 thousand dollar leather chair, paid for by the General ‘s taxes. [As opposed to you flying taxi drivers that act like gods, right Jimmy Boy? farang]

    You repaid him for this by humiliating him in front of millions. [Yes, "humiliated him", then voted to pass another $80 billion "war supplement" because of the US military's inability to secure a land of barefoot towel-headed Freedom Fighters. NINE years now, Jimmy Boy, how long will it take? WWII was over almost TWICE in this same time period.
    But don't worry: we have plenty money to water his Golf Courses world-wide, don't we Jimmy Boy? Every US base has one overseas, don't they Mr. Elitist Pilot asshole? farang.]

    Second is your puerile character, lack of sophistication, and arrogance, which borders on the hubristic. This display of brattish behavior shows you to be a virago, termagant, harridan, nag, scold or shrew, unfit for your position, regardless of the support of the unwashed, uneducated masses who have madeCalifornia into the laughing stock of the nation.

    [Yes, the unwashed masses that voted in a rightwing B-actor as Guv, actually two of them, that all of you Rightwing idiots worship. See results: like what you see? The first one ran up more debt that ALL the presidents before him (after tripling my State tax rate, thanks Alzheimer Andy!). The one that gutted the best Community College system in the US. The "laughingstock" that leads the nation in AGRICULTURE by a factor of 2 over second place, brain dead Texas.

    The "laughingstock" that has the 9th largest economy in the world, you dildo. farang]

    What I am writing, are the same thoughts countless millions of Americans have toward Congress, but who lack the energy, ability or time to convey them. Regardless of their thoughts, most realize that politicians are pretty much the same, and will vote for the one who will bring home the most bacon, even if they do consider how corrupt that person is. Lord Acton (1834 – 1902) so aptly charged, “Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely.”

    Unbeknownst to you and your colleagues, “Mr. Power” has had his way with all of you, and we are all the worse for it. ["unbeknownst"????: THAT is elitist, schmuck? farang]

    Finally, Senator, I, too, have a title. It is “Right Wing Extremist Potential Terrorist Threat.” It is not of my choosing, but was given to me by your Secretary of Homeland Security, Janet Napolitano, and you were offended by “ma’am”?
    [I have a label too, Jimmy Boy, and it comes from brainless fools like you: Liberal. Like George Washington. Like Thomas Jefferson. Folks you rightwingers would like to wipe from the slate of history like in Texas school books. You WILL NOT WIN. Liberals have guns too, shithead, and we know how to use them. I'm a Liberal that opposes the Security State you worship. One that opposed George W. Bush giving billionaires "tax cuts" and unbalancing the budget in 2001. One that opposed giving Israel billions in "foreign aid", while their tribe poisons all branches of my government. Yes, you brave warrior, dropping bombs on civilians from unarmed drones is HEROIC, and we all salute you. A two middle finger salute, cocksucker. Any time you need your ass kicked by a Liberal, give farang a call. It will be my pleasure, for as short a time as it lasts.

    Korb Khun Korb! Have a nice day, slimeball! farang]

    Have a fine day. Cheers!

  59. http://www.greenzonemovie.com/ shot with the red . my film just increased funding . I need 15 000 more . for the red .

  60. great thing about the red it’s sooo small it fits into handbag – you look like an amateur and people don’t take you serious and let you film – also dressing up as bimbo helps

  61. http://www.red.com/ scarlet one that would be if you manage to get enough people rich with a mini put dollar trade option on pirate thing . go max and stacey go !!

  62. If you shoot with a bolex you can hand crank your time – besides having the cheapest camera – you still have the best colors – apart from maybe the red . panasonic is dead vive the red cam . that’s if you have cash and enough funding (not the case)

  63. and now that we’re all going to starve to death with wheat prices – fast cash please for yesterday and I might stay in the now .. oh dear

  64. yes for a quick money option on pirate thing- realtime graph and trade on dollar – with only put option and a 30x leverage – based in swiss – mini platform for quicker funding of films. cause time is the only currency. and my film is kind of already out of date.

  65. @dan valley

    It seems that the “False Flag” gets more popular every day.

  66. yes to a back to the future trading on pirate film thing. And my good idea film funding isn’t kicking off at all. how bout a joint put on dollar instead of coke – make your own money – crash the dollar and get rich on the forex instead. And then make the films you want to with rich pirates? what’s wrong with indians in amazonas? 25 dollars in a week funding. I could make that in a slit second on forex. betting on the crashing dollar

    Re cameras.
    P2 is a great system. I use Sony EX3 which is also solid state (Card system instead of tape) So easy once you overcome the data loss fear as you correctly say Stacy. I use Sony because I live in a Sony town and we must all be compatible with each other for multi-camera use.
    The new kid on the block is the Canon 5D and 7D. These are DSLR cameras, or cameras that look like stills cameras that shoot High quality HD video.
    These are being used for lots of commercial, promo and music video work and use the prime lenses and short depth of field (the film look).
    They cost around $3,000 for the body and then you also buy stills lenses on top of that.

    The Red camera is the “hip” camera of choice, however there are continuing problems with sound. So feed camera sound but run a double system (sound recorder and slate) so you have lots of backup. One set up where the camera crew forgets to plug in sound, or screws up a menu will make you wish you had separate back up sound being recorded.

    I still have some contact with a film school I taught at. The kids on their non school projects are apparently using Canon SLR’s that shoot HD. They apparently buy three and rotate them when they get hot. I’m not sure what specific model they are using but something like the Canon ES550d is my guess. They have started making mounts for these cameras so you can balance them on your shoulder for a more stable shot. Some will also take standard Canon lenses. These cameras do 30 FPS HD 1080P, record sound as well, but it will probably be a scratch track, you will need a sound recordist, I’m available and have a EU passport. ;-)

    For professional results make sure you get the sound right, listen for back ground noise (cars, planes) and cut when you hear it. Remember to turn off the fridge. Leave your keys in the fridge so you remember to turn it back on.

    If you think a camera mic will do the job you are wasting money. A good boom operator with a decent microphone is a necessity for drama. Quiet locations are a necessity, if it’s noisy it will cost you $$$$$ to fix it. BTW it can’t be fixed. ;-)

    I recently worked a show that had a great idea, instead of plywood dance floor (level surface they roll the camera dolly around on) they were using light weight 1/4 inch plexiglass. Instead of a heavy expensive rental dolly. the camera operators sat on a sort of stool with 6 casters made up from roller skate wheels that swiveled. Camera was over the shoulder and the operators just used their feet to move around.

    Dedo is right, please enlighten us. Isn’t Hammurabi the one who’s teachings Plato wrote about in The Republic, and is now cloned to a president.

  103. Excerpt:

    British theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking has warned that the human race would face extinction, should it fail to go to another planet to live on.

    - … “only chance for long-term survival”, “spread out into space.”

    - … getting to the nearest star onboard a chemical-fuel rocket, will take human around 50,000 years.

    _ …human needs to develop spacecraft that travels at near-light-speed and protect him from the killing cosmic radiations.

    I havent tried the Lumix. I used the Eos 5D a few times and was very impressed, also with canon you can use many different lenses via adapters (Leica R) and theres a great canon zoom (2,8 maybe 24-70) which is kind of expensive but makes excellent pictures. I was amazed that they actually added the video capacity to an SLR.

  105. @@Paolo3

    Bottomline: Canon Lens adaptability Suckz! – Canon only good for Canon Lens which doesn’t always have to be a bad thing but limits your possibilities.

  107. @Paolo3

    :arrow: The Reason that the GH1 is surpior is in the GH1 Body. The Lens adaptability which makes even High-End Film Lenses possible. You can only dream about the results when your in such amazement seeing it.

  108. I would suggest the Canon Eos 5d Mark 2 at the moment. It creates a H264 codec which is highly compressed but looks great and many say it actually looks better than the Red. Both give great depth of field (shallow) if you want to make nice pictures. You would however need to record sound seperately, i have an olympus LS5 which is great (like a zoom H2 but better) and can also use an external mic. You would need a clapper board (maybe too much stress for some doc filmers but if you want a good aesthetic its worth it). Its a lot cheaper than a Red.

  119. Fer fuxake, are we in some sort of animated trance?
    Clearly, we have boiled this damn monetary, chicken until all that is left is the definite and undeniable prospect of world wide, cheap labor.

    Within the current monetary economic system, there are no options. Even somewhat, outside the system, there is a phenominia that will not go away … More and more and more people will lose their ” jobs for money” due to technological unemployment.

    Where does that leave the young?

    Hundreds of years ago, had we not been forced out of the resource based economy, we were well able to handle, we would have designed around our limitations. A “job for money” is a contrivance, with a long beard[1850 B.C] … It was not a free choice; it was decreed upon mankind … It is an active ingredient in the great fiat, monetary game of DOMINANCE, which morphed into a belief system. This present system cannot be “fixed” or governed, as it is not broke.; it is doing exactly what it is designed to do[and as chance would have it, uses technology to accomplish its deleterious ends.] Cheap labor seems nothing more than, arrested development and an obvious waste of human lives.
    But what if, people need not have a “job for money”, to survive? Only within the confines of this monetary system does one need a “job for money”. I know, this goes against the belief system, the grand Poo-Bah, against everything we have ever known, right? As usual, the pathologically polite, will line up, bend over and assume the position, to let old Hammurabi, once again, have his way.

    Sadly this group is the majority; still there is a hope based on technologies that we already possess. With IT networks, it is estimated that there are over 1 trillion hours per year of cognitive surplus up for grabs. This powerful surplus can and will, change the world. We need only to direct it’s power to design a new paradigm. Tick tock.
