  4. I've listened to Popol Vuh's Bruder Des Schattens-Sohne Des Lichts and Nosferatu soundtrack albums a lot but finally digging deeper into their catalogue with these two albums. Any recommendations?

  6. Project Caligari

    As the days tolled ever onward to All Hallow’s Eve, an opportunity arose to make use of a new creative space on campus – just by our CentR Stage bar and just in time for the Academy’s Halloween party. Despite only receiving full access and equipment on the morning of festivities, a hastily scribbled tribute to the legacy of cinematic horror was set in motion.

    Knowing partygoers were there to chill, chat, and indulge appropriately themed cocktails, there was no expectation they would sit down to watch a full film. Instead we planned a minimalist immersive area to relax in, with low-slung sofas encircled by rear-projected screens showing multiple silent movies. A central plinth would hold an object of focus and contrasting colour from the cold scenes on display.

    Implementation demanded a different design – not least a lack of haze, incense, and human remains – with a trio of floor-sat units forward-projecting onto a curve of black drapes. The plinth then sat behind the sofas, adorned with a plastic pumpkin pilfered from the bar – ideally replacing it with the winner of the party’s carving competition.

    Vintage horror sourced from archive.org provided the (cunningly Public Domain) vibe, with many films planned for each screen through the night. Technical difficulties, however, meant we had to lock each projector down to a single looping movie – controlled by a laptop behind the curtain running Resolume Media Server going into an HDMI splitter.

    The chosen films presented a journey through the early years of macabre movies. An era where the steadfast rules of cinema had yet to be written, inspiring a vibrant visual imagination lost in a later generation of sedate talkies.

    The vivid expressionism of The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) was an essential choice. The first feature-length horror committed to celluloid, and one which many have not been aware. Director Robert Wiene’s eye delivers a pioneering dream-like ambience to a tale of grisly murder, with hand painted backdrops accentuating this unreality.

    Next, F. W. Murnau’s Nosferatu (1922) – another German Expressionist classic. Despite drawing the ire of the Stoker estate for obvious plagiarism, this film offers its own interpretation. Max Shreck‘s Count Orlak presents an iconic image of vampyric horror as a monstrous being, a presence revisited in subsequent remakes.

    Completing the triptych with another tale retold through the generations, James Whale’s Frankenstein (1931) was filmed with spoken dialogue. However, the rich gothic design still offers strong visual storytelling, with Boris Karloff‘s taciturn performance as the monster just as captivating in silence. A cornerstone of Universal Studios’ shared monster cinematic universe.

    All crew work is collective, and we could not have done this without the aid of veterans Nick and Max, who helped to set up and put the final pieces together while I was embroiled in all-day lectures. Their efforts ensured the project was finished to schedule.

    Freshers had their chance to contribute too, with new student Ruby curating a masterful multi-genre playlist to accompany proceedings. Although I was obliged to throw in a few extra tracks at the end, we all agreed to remove ‘Monster Mash’ after the shuffle spookily reprised it over and over.

    Nothing can ever happen without some form of improvisation, and the taming of wild ideas into practical necessity manifests many happy accidents. The surreal imagery of early experimental cinema, especially in Caligari’s twisted set design, was thrown further off-kilter by the warp of the drapes. An abstract unease accentuated by the imperfect focus and inconsistent framing. It is important, at times, to let go of perfection so things can simply find their own form.

    Overall, it went down very well. Partygoers drifted in and out to watch and take photos, enjoying my eager explanations. The client and crew working in the main studio also popped in to take a look around in appreciation. The only complaint from some was the installation wasn’t ‘scary’ enough…

    … but the True Terror was throwing it together on time!

  9. 🖼️ Pour la meilleure photographie, je pense que l’Académie récompensera #TheBrutalist et son revival du VistaVision.

    Pour ma part, je n’ai été sensible ni au travail de Lol Crawley, ni au noir et blanc fade de #Nosferatu, et mon prix personnel revient à #Dune2.

  11. [05:45] Big Tech ondoorgrondelijk? Deze atlas gidst je door de digitale machtsverhoudingen

    Digitalisering zet veel, zo niet alles, op losse schroeven. De geopolitieke verhoudingen worden er zo door opgeschud dat het op zijn minst onduidelijk is wie de macht in handen heeft: het volk, politici of Big Tech? Haroon Sheikh laat in zijn nieuwe boek zien hoe het zit – en wat dit betekent voor Nederland. Foto door Marijn Smulders (voor De Correspondent)
    De wereld ondergaat een ingrijpende transformatie: digitalisering zet veel, zo niet alles, op losse schroeven. De geopolitieke verhoudingen worden er zo door opgeschud dat het op zijn minst onduidelijk is wie de macht in handen heeft: het volk, politici of Big Tech?
    Hoe ziet die nieuwe wereld er eigenlijk uit? Haroon Sheikh schetst een zeer helder beeld in zijn Atlas van de digitale wereld (2024). Daarin biedt hij zeven ‘landkaarten’ aan die niet naast elkaar maar boven op elkaar liggen, als een stapel speelkaarten. Samen laten deze kaarten zien hoe de verschillende ‘lagen van digitalisering’ zich tot elkaar en de wereld verhouden, en wat de positie van Nederland en Europa hierin is. Sheikh is politicoloog en filosoof en senior onderzoeker bij de WRR, de Wetenschappelijke Raad voor het Regeringsbeleid. Ook is hij bijzonder hoogleraar aan de VU en heeft hij een breed interessegebied; film hoort daar ook bij. In een opiniestuk voor NRC schreef hij over de recente remake van Nosferatu, de klassieker van Murnau uit 1922. Hij las de film als een botsing tussen twee wereldbeelden: het traditionele religieuze en het moderne. Sheikh denkt dat de rationele mens van nu één ding over het hoofd ziet: het bestaan van het Kwaad. Op De Correspondent praten de auteur, experts en ervaringsdeskundigen samen verder over dit artikel.

  12. Včera večer jsem absolvoval první návštěvu kina v tomto roce a úplně v klidu můžu říct, že jsem viděl jeden z nejlepších letošních filmů. Dlouho jsem neodcházel z kina takhle nadšenej.
    Nádherný gotický horor a remake jednoho z nejikoničtějších filmů v historii kinematografie.
    Robert Eggers to dokázal! Natočil velmi povedený, démonicky atmosférický kousek, prolezlej hnilobou a morem, který se dokonce, kromě Kanady, natáčel i v České republice.
    Herecké obsazení je taky výborné : Willem Dafoe, Nicholas Hoult, mladá Deppka (dcera Johnnyho Deppa)... a především, v roli ďábelského Orloka, Bill Skarsgard, který pokaždé, když promluvil, tak jsem měl husinu, až na zadnici. Tohle je potřeba vidět v originále.
    Mistrovské dílo.

    10/10

    Had some thoughts after watching one of those Willem Dafoe movies with vampires. Enough thoughts to fill 3 pages. Spoilers for all of the movies, of course.

  14. Recensione “Nosferatu” (2024)

    Parafrasando Nietzsche, si può dire che se tu guarderai a lungo nell’oscurità, anche l’oscurità vorrà guardare dentro di te. Ed è proprio in un buio accecante che Eggers immerge lo spettatore (e Lily-Rose Depp) sin dalla primissima inquadratura, come a volerlo rendere parte di quella stessa notte buia, la stessa oscurità nella quale il regista fa muovere le sue ombre.

    Il vampiro Nosferatu, il “non spirato”, nasce nel 1922 come plagio cinematografico del capolavoro di Bram Stoker Dracula, in uno dei film più simbolici della cinematografia di Murnau, dell’espressionismo tedesco e senza dubbio di tutto il cinema muto: qualunque cinefilo che si rispetti avrà presente l’inquietante sagoma deformata di Max Schreck, il primo Nosferatu del cinema, proiettata sulla parete della sua decadente magione. Eggers prende quell’ombra e la diffonde per 135 minuti di film sugli occhi di chi guarda, soprattutto tra le pieghe di un desiderio latente, quello di una protagonista eccezionale, che rispetto alle versioni precedenti di Nosferatu, qui diventa il vero e proprio motore della storia: Lily-Rose Depp è infatti splendida e inquietante al tempo stesso, a tal punto che forse mi spaventerebbe addirittura incontrarla per strada, e concede tutta se stessa ai suoi demoni, alla sua solitudine, al suo desiderio, in una società maschilista controllata da inetti, come il marito della sua Ellen, il solito Nicolas Hoult confuso e incapace di cambiare espressione, non importa se il suo personaggio venga bullizzato nel liceo descritto da Nick Hornby, sia in preda a dubbi etici e morali nella giuria di Clint Eastwood o terrorizzato nei Carpazi da un uomo molto più carismatico di lui (sebbene si tratti di uno spaventoso vampiro, questo glielo concediamo). Perché, diciamolo, è molto più interessante il rapporto che intercorre tra Ellen e Orlok rispetto a quello che la donna ha con suo marito: è infatti la lotta contro l’oscurità che Leni porta dentro la vera anima di questo convincente lavoro di Eggers, un horror gotico ricco di atmosfere e suggestioni appartenenti al secolo scorso, ma capace anche di essere moderno, sempre credibile e mai grottesco. La grandezza di questa nuova versione di Nosferatu è, al di là dell’indubbia potenza visiva, la capacità di reinventarsi in ogni scena, di essere coinvolgente anche di fronte a una storia che abbiamo visto in tutte le salse, che il regista statunitense però riesce a modernizzare con la metafora, neanche troppo sottile, di una donna indipendente in lotta contro una società di maschi dominanti, che frenano i suoi desideri, che decidono come deve vivere e che addirittura tentano di frenare la sua “follia” facendole indossare corpetti più stretti.

    Il Conte Orlok può anche far paura (bravo Skarsgaard, ormai abbonato a vestire i panni dei mostri), ma non sarà mai così spaventoso come quando Eggers costringe noi spettatori – e ogni personaggio dei suoi film – a fare i conti con l’oscurità che portiamo dentro, che probabilmente rinneghiamo, ma che forse dovremmo imparare a riconoscere. Perché anche dopo la notte più buia, c’è sempre il sorgere del sole.

  15. Final pictures of Count Orlok from #Nosferatu

    I ordered it from @CultTVman , and I had a lot of fun getting this one finished on time.

    You can find a detailed writeup of the build on the Hobby Link International forums here:

    community.hobbylinkinternation

    HLI is a fairly small, currently evolving, low-key forum of scale model builders ... We're trying to keep out all the nonsense that comes with big social media stuff.

    #scalemodel #halloween #vampire #scalemodeling #scalemodelling #groupbuild

  16. 13 days start to finish ... and done 21 hours before the deadline. 😀

    Proper pictures will come later, after the camera battery charges, LOL.

  17. CW: CW: Scale Model Bugs and Stuff ...

    Work continues on finishing Orlok from #Nosferatu

    Everything has been painted and sealed. I like to use #Vallejo Mecha Varnishes for these steps.

    Final touches, finishes and assembly hopefully sometime tomorrow. Then completed pictures.

    Thank for looking.

  18. Work continues ever onward with Count Orlok from #Nosferatu

    Shading on the skin and clothes are done. The base has been, well, base coated with craft paint and gloss sealed so I can do some quick washes and weathering.

    With any luck, I think I can be done before the #groupbuild deadline (10/28 at noon ET)

    I wish the shading on the skin would show easier on camera, but it has always had a problem with lighter colors. May be time for an upgrade ...

    Thanks for looking

    #scalemodel #halloween

  19. Base coating Orlok from #Nosferatu

    I still have to mask and paint the cuffs and collar, but the parts need to bake for a bit.

    Colors are mostly #ArmyPainter #Warpaints , thinned with #Vallejo Airbrush Thinner and Flow Improver, sprayed through my #Paasche Talon airbrush.

    Next up is the base, but that'll mostly be craft paint brushing, washes and dry-brushing. It's the no-fuss part of the build.

    Thanks for looking!

  20. Starting work on this #scaleModel for a #halloween #groupBuild over at Hobby Link International.

    Count Orlok of #Nosferatu from Monarch Models. It's supposedly the last run of this kit.

    Let's see if I can build and paint it in time.

    I've been called a "glacial builder" though ... LOL.
