Watched the #NFB #documentary Love, Harold tonight. Alan Zweig manages to get this incredible level of honesty from the people he interviews. I always feel like they're telling him things they've never told anyone else.

This is sooooo cool!
Hooray for the #NFB but also for the incredibly creative and amazing Inuit animators from the 1970s!! -
The National Film Board of Canada (NFB) has uncovered, digitized and is making available a significant collection of original and innovative Inuit animation from Cape Dorset, Nunavut.
‘These newly uncovered reels run for more than 50 minutes and are made by 12 different filmmakers — nearly triple the number of reels first screened to the public in “Animation from Cape Dorset.”
“Think of it as a director's cut,” Fournier said. “All of [the reels] had never seen the light of day or had never gotten into any sort of acclaim or accreditation for the artists. So, being able to have this body of work, and being able to make it widely available to folks is really an exciting, exciting time.”’
Reel #1 is embedded in the report at the link.

This will be a bit of a long post, so I apologise for that. I have been totally blind since I was two months old and am now forty-two. I didn't grow up around blind people. I made my first blind friend when I was sixteen, thanks to a vocational counselor. Only in my late twenties did I begin making blind friends online. I never agreed with the attitude and philosophy of the NFB (National Federation of the Blind). They always seemed too preachy to me, and too unrealistic. They believe that the blind shouldn't ask for help or be given modifications in many instances, and they can be confrontational at times. They also treat everyone the same, which doesn't work with a group of people who have different needs, life experiences, etc. Plus, I heard that some chapters can be quite religious, and I'm an atheist. From what I heard of the ACB (American Council of the Blind), they are much more relaxed. They have no problems asking for help when needed, and are willing to work with other groups and organisations. They understand that all blind people are not the same, and they treat their members accordingly, not pushing them to do one thing or another, or to follow this or that belief. At least, that's how these two groups seem to me, particularly from the short interactions I've had with the NFB over the years. This doesn't make the NFB bad. It's just not for me. Please, if I'm wrong in my explanations, do correct me. It is not my intent to spread misinformation. These are things I've heard and experienced over the years, but I have never been a member of either group.
Having said all of that, I am very interested in joining the ACB. I am not an activist or advocate, but I do hope to make some friends. I also heard that there are many seniors there, so maybe, I can even find a partner! They have two chapters in New Jersey, but none is near me, so I will probably join the NJCB as a member at large, which will also make me a member of the ACB. I joined several of their lists, but the ACB-L one seems no longer to exist, and I never received the generic welcome e-mail from the ACB Conversations list. Maybe, they have to review my request or some such. The others are fine, though. This is just for e-mail. I will join officially next month. I am actually excited about the New Jersey convention next month. My parents are willing to take me, so we can all enjoy it! Are any of you ACB members? I would love to hear your stories.

Using the #NFB app on #AppleTV to watch some brilliant Canadian animation pieces this evening.
Working though several shorts by Directors Chris Lavis and Maciek Szczerbowski. Their short "The Girl Who Cried Pearls" won an Oscar just this year.
Dramatic visuals and animation. Some of the stories are a little fragmented, but the watching is still quite enjoyable.

This afternoon I partook of a webinar produced by #NFB on the subject of the product 1Password. I’ve been curious about 1Password for a while, and I thought this would be a good idea to get an introduction to it. It was well-done, but I wound up having to bail early. It had nothing to do with the value of the webinar, I learned a lot. Unfortunately, the presenter was using #DecTalk on the computer on which they were demonstrating it. DecTalk just gives me a headache. There are so many far better voices available now, why would anyone stick to what was the standard at the turn of the millennium? But I digress. I’m very interested in 1Password now, but the house is very much divided. Sarah does not trust anything like this; just this week she had to delete all of her passwords from Google. I still might invest in 1Password, we shall see.

Today’s Oscar nominee announcement includes several Canadians across many categories.
As an animation fan, I’d like to draw amplify the contributions of two Canadian institutions that have been nurturing Canadian animators.
- National Film Board of Canada received its 79th nomination for funding *The Girl who cried Pearls*
- two graduates of Sheridan College in the Great Toronto Area received nominations as writers and co-directors of best animated feature (*KPop Demon Hunters* and *Elio*)

I've been interested a very small bit about the whole blind history thing though I'm more interested in the history of speech synthesis and screenreaders than I am about the blindness movement because like 80% of it is propaganda and full of we hate this group because they do this thing differently than they do. The #ACB and #NFB are prime examples of this. #Blind
-
@MikeGorse For my part, I can say that my issues with the #NFB don’t have anything to do with what happened back in the late 50s. Rather, it’s something more recent. I don’t necessarily have animosity toward the organization in general, I was actually a member for a time about seven years ago, it has to do with the organization’s response, or lack thereof, dealing with the sexual misconduct allegations in the training centers.

Shared this before on a previous account but when I feel the 500 tog duvet of #procrastination weighing me down I smile as I remember this classic #animation I caught on BBC2 back when BBC2 was worth watching.

@Lino0876 @NicksWorld If I remember correctly, the discount was being offered to #NFB members, at least technically. I’m pretty sure I remember there being a code, so if you enter it I don’t know if they would take that extra step and check membership. Sorry I couldn’t be more helpful, I didn’t pay terribly close attention since my Bookshare membership just rolled over in September.

Nalujuk Night is an up close look at an exhilarating, and sometimes terrifying, #Labrador #Inuit tradition. Every January 6th from the dark of the #Nunatsiavut night, the #Nalujuit appear on the sea ice. They walk on two legs, yet their faces are animalistic, skeletal, and otherworldly. Snow crunches underfoot as they approach their destination: the Inuit community of #Nain.
Despite the frights, Nalujuk Night is a beloved annual event, showing that sometimes it can be fun to be scared. Rarely witnessed outside of Nunatsiavut, this annual event is an exciting chance for Inuit, young and old, to prove their courage and come together as a community to celebrate #culture and #tradition.
#Inuk filmmaker Jennie Williams brings audiences directly into the action in this bone-chilling black and white short #documentary about a winter night like no other.

First-time NFB collaborator Arash Akhgari crafts a striking visual meditation on the seductive yet overwhelming nature of #MassMedia. Combining handmade sculptural #collages with ink and paint #animation , In the Shallows immerses viewers in the fragmented world of news, entertainment, and ads—an intoxicating current that threatens to drown our perception of reality. As we lose ourselves in endless streams of images and information, our inner worlds are inundated with outside noise, turning us into mere shadows of ourselves. Through its hypnotic imagery and innovative animation techniques, the film offers a powerful reflection on the #DigitalAge and the loss of #AuthenticConnection.

Dominique Leclerc embarks on a thought-provoking journey into the cutting-edge world of #cyborgs , #biohackers and #transhumanists —a collective pushing the boundaries of #technology to defy illness, aging and even death. Having relied on #medical devices for years, Leclerc seeks alternative solutions to cope with her diabetes, but as she delves deeper, she grapples with the profound ethical, social and political implications of human enhancement. What happens when our physical and cognitive upgrades are shaped by the interests of tech giants? Led by Frannie Holder’s haunting original score, Posthumans offers a compelling meditation on the future of our species and the cost of progress.

Told entirely from a #ChildsPerspective, Ninan Auassat: We, the Children is a powerful and immersive #documentary that reveals the dreams of a new generation ready to take flight. Renowned for her intimate and compelling films, director Kim O’Bomsawin takes us deep into the world of #IndigenousYouth , capturing the stories of #children from the #Atikamekw , #EeyouCree and #Innu Nations over a period of more than six years. Without adult narration or expert commentary, the film offers an unfiltered look at #childhood as it unfolds, from everyday life to defining moments on the path to #adulthood. It’s a bold cinematic statement—one that gives space to a generation eager to be heard. Their voices ring out, not just as personal stories, but as a call to action, demanding recognition and the chance to thrive on their own terms.

With warmth, creativity and quiet resilience, the film celebrates Katherine’s independence and the powerful bond between mother and daughter. It offers a moving sense of hope—for every child whose unique qualities are seen, supported and nurtured.

In the fall of 1985, a small group of #Haida people stood on a muddy #logging road on #LyellIsland —and refused to move. What followed was a landmark act of peaceful #resistance that helped spark a nationwide reckoning around land, #sovereignty and #environmental #justice. Drawing from over a hundred hours of electrifying #archival footage, The Stand immerses us in the tension, #courage and quiet #humanity of that moment.
Directed by Christopher Auchter (Now Is the Time), the film honours the #Elders , #activists and supernatural spirits who helped shape a new future for the #HaidaNation — and for all of #Canada.

For years, Julius Arile and Robert Matanda thrive among the bands of warriors that terrorize the North #Kenyan countryside. Stealing cattle, raiding and running from the police is the only life they know. So when both warriors suddenly disappear from the bush, many assume they are dead or have been arrested. Instead, they trade in their rifles for sneakers—in the hopes of making it big as professional #MarathonRunners.
