John Herman is the multi-hyphenate artist and media maker behind the new episodic web show, Gravityland. The show consists of weekly episodes, viewer responses, a blog, music videos, and a comic book, which are all related in fascinating ways. I spoke with John about episode 6 which was written by the viewers, the reaction to the show so far, and some of the surprises along the way. Do interactions between makers and viewers like this point to the future of episodic entertainment, especially on the web? The Art Film Talk theme music was composed by Colin Owens.

Marshall Herskovitz and Edward Zwick have been producing high-quality television (My So Called Life, thirtysomething) and film (Legends of the Fall, Blood Diamond) for quite some time. Recently the duo launched Quarterlife, a contemporary coming of age series being streamed on the web along with an integrated social network. A significant aspect of the show is that unlike most television properties today, the producers retain full creative control and ownership. In addition to being available on MySpace and their own web site, they recently made a deal with NBC to air the show next year.

I talk with Herskovitz about the origins of the project, its significance in the context of the writers strike, and what's different about producing for the internet compared to traditional film and television. Related to this interview is "Are the corporate suits ruining TV?," an editorial by Herskovitz which appeared in the Los Angeles Times on November 7, 2007 in which he argues that Network control and media consolidation are wringing the creativity out of entertainment.

Florian Borchmeyer is co-director of Havana: The New Art of Making Ruins (2006, German title: "Havana - Die Neue Kunst Ruinen Zu Bauen") which won the Special Jury Award at the 2006 LA Latino International Film Festival.

This unique documentary traces the reflections and thoughts of a group of Havana residents who spend their days living in buildings on the verge of collapse. There is more to Havanas ruins than the facades romanticized in countless films and documentaries, their beauty resides in the poetry of its ruins and in the stories of the people who reside in them, serving as a metaphor for the gradual collapse of the city and Cuba's political system.

Havana: The New Art of Making Ruins is available from Cinema Guild.

3 Needles

David Tames talks with Thom Fitzgerald about his new film, 3 Needles, which opens in several U.S. theaters on Friday, December 1, 2006 in conjunction with World AIDS Day. The cast includes Lucy Liu, Chloe Sevigny, Olympia Dukakis, Sandra Oh, Stockard Channing, and Shawn Ashmore.

The film consists of three stories about the ways different people deal with the AIDS epidemic and the sacrifices they are willing to make: In Montreal, a porn actor hides his illness so he will not lose his job while his mother makes her own pact with the disease in order to care for him; In South Africa a nun negotiates a deal to save the lives of disease-stricken children in her mission; In a Chinese village, a young entrepreneur buys blood from farmers who use the money to improve their lives, unaware that she is spreading death. Thom Fitzgerald has said, "In North America and Europe we have such a cognitive awareness of how not to spread AIDS, but in much of the rest of the world, people are innocently infected through ignorance and cultural practice."

The interivew was edited by Elissa Mintz and recorded at the 2006 Rio International Film Festival. Theme music by Colin Owens.

David Tames talks with Chris Paine, director of the new film Who Killed the Electric Car, at the 15th Woods Hole Film Festival.

The film chronicles the life and mysterious death of the GM EV1 electric car, examining its cultural and economic effects and how they reverberated through the halls of government and big business. In 1990 California passed the Zero Emissions Mandate (ZEV) which encouraged the commercialization of the electric car. But the electric car threatened the status quo. The film tries to get at the truth behind its demise through interviews with automakers, legislators, engineers, consumers and car enthusiasts. The film is currently in theaters, so see the film and tell a friend.

Coverage of the Woods Hole Film Festival will continue in the next episode.

Recently, artists including Chris Ware, Robert Crumb, Dan Clowes, Harvey Pekar, and Joe Sacco have enjoyed a resurgence due to the popularity of adult graphic novels. Some of this has to do with movie adaptations,

Evans has taught film studies at the Art Institute of Boston at Lesley University and has lectured on the language and history of comics at the Maine College of Art and at the Cambridge Center for Adult Education, where he has two upcoming events: a lecture titled "Superheros on the Silver Screen" on February 18, 2006, and "Reading Comics," a course scheduled for the Spring term (March, 2006).

A recent article titled "Meet the Life Hackers" by Clive Thompson appeared in the October 16th issue of The New York Times that discussed the rise of interruption science and how the many communication devices we use affect our behavior. David Rose was quoted in the article saying, "Information is no longer a scarce resource–attention is […] computer-based interruptions fall into a sort of Heisenbergian uncertainty trap: it is difficult to know whether an e-mail message is worth interrupting your work for unless you open and read it–at which point you have, of course, interrupted yourself." The article asks many questions and interviews some researchers in the area, however, it did not cover the work that Ambient Devices is doing. David Rose shares with us how Ambient Devices is working on a solution. Items mentioned in the interview inlclude: Apple's Dashboard, Microsoft's Gadgets, Yahoo!'s Konfabulator and Ambient's current products: the Orb, Weather Beacon, Dashboard, and the new 5 Day Forecaster.
