Why I am not a Painter
by Frank O’Hara (1926-1966)
I am not a painter, I am a poet. Why? I think I would rather be a painter, but I am not. Well,
for instance, Mike Goldberg is starting a painting. I drop in. “Sit down and have a drink” he says. I drink; we drink. I look up. “You have SARDINES in it.” “Yes, it needed something there.” “Oh.” I go and the days go by and I drop in again. The painting is going...
LOVE'S SECRET
by: William Blake (1757-1827)
Never seek to tell thy love, Love that never told can be; For the gentle wind doth move Silently, invisibly.
I told my love, I told my love, I told her all my heart, Trembling, cold, in ghastly fears. Ah! she did depart!
Soon after she was gone from me, A traveller came by, Silently, invisibly: He took her with a sigh.

Am I missing something? I woke up 7:30am this morning and was working on my projects and reading books and had a lunch at 12:30’ish. And suddenly it’s 5:30pm here. What happened last 4hours? I really don’t remember. Where my precious last 4hours has gone? Time is flying in a jet speed. What da’hell? I really feel dizzy. I haven’t started my stop motion project and...

The Writing of Dziga Vertov
The utilization of camera, as a cinema eye - more perfect than a human eye for purposes of research into the chaos of visual phenomena filling the universe. The eye lives and moves in the time of space perceiving and recording impressions in a way quite different from the human eye. It is not neccessary for it to have a particular stance or to be observed per second. The movie camera is better. We...
To The Council of Three - Dziga Vertov
Psychological, detective, satirical, travel film - it doesn’t matter what kind - if we cut out all the themes, leaving only the captions, we get the picture’s literary skeleton. We can shoot other themes to go with that literary skeleton - realist, symbolist, expressionist - what have you. This situation will not change. The correlatin is the same: a literary skeleton plus...
