PHOTOS: Saul Bass and Billy Wilder-Even though I knew that Saul Bass did the opening titles for Billy Wilder’s film The Seven Year Itch back in 1955, I never imagined I’d ever get to see two of my greatest heroes together in the same room. I don’t know what the back story is to these photos, but they are from a 1993 interview they did together in Los Angeles with Pat Kirkham, who coincidentally (or not) is the author of that new book on Bass I wrote about in the previous post.

PHOTOS: Francesca Woodman, a new exhibition of great intellectual power and emotional influence is a glorious result of extensive research and profound analysis by Corey Keller, associate curator of photography. It reveals an enormous body of work created by a young artist Francesca Woodman, born in 1958, whose suicide at age 22 interrupted her already significant career and left a cult-like following in its wake.

[PHOTOS] The Private Halloween Parties of The 1%.
Provided to the New York Times by a former employee of the law firm of Steven J. Baum, a firm known as a “foreclosure mill,” because it represents banks like Bank of America, Citigroup, and Wells Fargo in foreclosure cases. This is a Halloween party held last year in the firm’s HQ near Buffalo, NY, in which employees mockingly dressed up as “squatters” and decorated the office with caricatures of homeless camps and foreclosed homes, under a sign reading Baum Estates.
The firm is currently under investigation by the NY Attorney General for its practices (not its appalling parties in which it mocks the people it works to make homeless, but its “dubious legal practices”) and the subject of a class-action lawsuit.
The firm should also be the subject of widespread scorn for their absolute lack of compassion and their delight and ridicule in the misery of people whose homes have been foreclosed on.
Read the whole story at the New York Times.
I put a line through “The private halloween parties of the 1%” because no, young laywers (and even probably most senior laywers) at big firms are not the 1 percent no matter who they work for or how shitty they are as people. This is the “99%” shitting on other members of “99%” on behalf of the 1% for some crumbs, which just shows how limiting and lacking nuance the 99% vs the 1% rhetoric is. Nevertheless, these people obviously weren’t born with the soul part.

GoPro® Launches HD HERO2® Camera
With Wi-Fi Remote Control and Video Streaming 2x More Powerful, The HD HERO2 Democratizes Professional Image Capture and Broadcast with Support for Remote Control and Live Video Streaming from Virtually Anywhere to the Web
Arguably the most versatile camera in the world thanks to its innovative mounting system, renowned durability and small form factor, the HD HERO2 surpasses its predecessor with several technology upgrades. The HD HERO2’s new processor delivers twice the processing power, taking full advantage of a new high performance 11 megapixel sensor that delivers more than twice the image detail along with professional low light performance. A totally redesigned wide-angle lens was required to take full advantage of the HD HERO2’s increased image-processing, resulting in a lens that’s twice as sharp as the previous model. And with the arrival of GoPro’s new Wi-Fi BacPac(TM) and Wi-Fi Remote products slated for release this winter, the HD HERO2 will enable video remote control via the Wi-Fi Remote, smartphones and devices, tablets and computers as well as enabling live GoPro video broadcast from anywhere there is Wi-Fi or a mobile hotspot.
Based in Half Moon Bay, California, GoPro makes the world’s most versatile cameras, enabling people to capture and share their lives’ most exciting moments in professional quality HD video and photos. GoPro’s HD HERO line of wearable and gear mountable cameras are used collectively by more consumers, professional athletes, and video production professionals than any other camera in the world.
