William Kentridge

William Kentridge is considered to be one of the leading artists in South Africa, and his work has brought him recognition around the world. In an animated film dating from 1989, Kentridge paints Soho Ackstein, a man within whose power it lies to feed, or to starve, the poor of Johannesburg standing at his door . In his paintings and animated films, Kentridge has been highly critical of the Apartheid regime. His films highlight the economic disparities and harsh exploitation, alongside the humiliation and discrimination that were the lot of the Black population of South Africa . Economic conditions have not improved much for the Black population since the replacement of the regime and the transfer of power to a new leadership. - hereWhat interests Kentridge is Time; its passing, the traces it leaves, the memory that events, beings and objects leave when we close our eyes on our past. His movies are based on 20 to 40 charcoal/ pastel drawings. Each frame is shot by erasing partsof the drawing and re-drawing them - here

Lebbeus Woods

Woods is an experimental architect and artist. The majority of his explorations deal with the design of systems in crisis: the order of the existing being confronted by the order of the new -wiki
Also, There are some interesting entries on the LW blog including one called What Is Architecture?: Continuing the struggle to understand what architecture is helps keep everyone—especially the architects—more honest.-LB Blog. I like this. Here, you could easily replace architecture with all things specifically .
I started thinking about him last night after I revisited Aeon Flux (definitely displays a system in crisis.) Do you remember when MTV used to run this show on theLiquid TV block!?

Lets Pretend We're Bunny Rabbits

uhOnce again, ladies & gentlemen, Juan Cabral of Falon for Sony Bravia. I hate him.
F*cking... click hereI just kidding Juan, darling. I want to lick your keyboard. Seriously though, think what you will of advertising. But what if your job consisted of making play dough bunny stop animations, shooting giant paint bombs into the air only to film the effects and hurling bouncing balls down the streets of San Fran? *suspiro* I will continue to strive for this bliss.
Thanks Hyun.

Juan Cabral is the Fallon creative behind the Sony Bravia adverts(view here) with the slow motion bounce-y balls in San Fransico and the colorful paint explosions. He also did this piece for Cadbury. Watch it. Thanks Hyun

Auntie Mame

Jeannius recommend this delightful 1958 film with an equally delightful intro. My only qualm is that the cursive type is too difficult to read. Otherwise, its simply divine darling!
