In contrast 2 her other 2 very impressive videos, this satirical clip of #KalkiKoechlin's did not convince me.
I'm a true fan of the works of @thejuicemedia, who, arguably, are currently the benchmark for political and social satire in a video clip format around here.
#Koechlin's clip is produced in that style +I can't even say that she did a poor job at mimicking it.
I couldn't shake off the dissonance I felt b/w the subject and the style.
A bit unfair, to compare it to the more modern productions by @thejuicemedia
Also, you can hardly compare the cultural context of a society, where even talking about consensual sex is a strong taboo, where (now rarely) widows are still burned, and female fetuses aborted (rather common), with one of the most progressive ones on the planet.
Let's finalise this thread by perhaps one of the most impressive poetry performances I have ever seen.
"The Printing Machine" deals with a variety of topics, but predominantly with the commodification of sexual violence by a ruthless media industry feeding the public's morbid fascination with this topic.
Written and performed by Kalki Koechlin
Even if it weren't for the message, her voice alone is enough reason to watch it.
I'm just trying to find the text...
I don't understand everything...you know my English...I'm already struggling to read english...
In any case, really impressive
Everything the video, the text, Kary is impressive just stunning
You somehow show me which project I should tackle next...
Thanks to @HistoPol
I had already started something...
Heading..."The Indictment paper" because it's so huge so far
Somehow my things are getting longer and longer
@Mina it doesn't spread itsself. the media hate the fediverse (choice is too complicated even for tech journalists). so you have to spread the idea ... :-)
The #Dadaistic performance of #KalkiKoechlin, "The Printing Machine - Unblushed" is very impressive, artistic, and also disturbing...which is why I've added a #CW, as it might trigger a lot of people, some of whom are my followers.
Any other adult should watch it.
Further warning: near-native level of #English is required.
As you've been so kind as 2 provide a subtitled version, that's easier😀
I now have, and I've also commented on all 3 of them now.
Due to several followers who are survivors of sexual violence, I had to remove my boosts of the last 2 about #Rape, as there is no content warning, and it would surely trigger them.
Ich habe hier Leute kennengelernt, die sich ganz bewusst, nur noch in ihrer Bubble aufhalten, weil die, die darin sind, um ihre Verletzlichkeit wissen.
Ich halte es deshalb ganz strikt mit diesbezüglichen CW's und Hashtags.--Es kann sowohl manuell als auch appseitig automatisch ausgefiltert werden.
Jede(r) kann dann selbst entscheiden, ohne ihn/sie bereits ein Wort triggern oder nicht.
Yep.
Mir ist da insbesondere eine Followerin von den britischen Inseln erinnerlich.
Regelrecht "terrorisiert" durch die Medien hat sie sich gefühlt.
Man kann das m.E. als Unbeteiligter nicht nachvollziehen.
