New Adam Curtis 5 min Short

[Masato]

Hey all

Big fan of Adam Curtis here (though his relationship with the BBC somewhat confuses me...). If you are unfamiliar with him please look him up and watch as many of his documentaries as you can.

Here is a new one that's only 5 long. I'm not sure the context, looks like its part of some other project but fuck it

Very interesting. After watching Century of the Self http://vimeo.com/91200667 i realized just how much fear, confussion and other emotions are tugged on so very much to bend public perception on EVERYTHING. I imagine you, masato, are torn all the time having to do advertising for this ugly system. i havent heard much of this Adam Curtis guy though, i'll check more of his stuff out. thx

Looks like there is more behind this, they were just teasers

People need to start looking at the world through these eyes; right or wrong it needs critical social analysis. Curtis has the skills to do it imo

I still don't understand why he gets so much support from the BBC though

I need to keep an eye on this...

Lets see if they whack him

I only warch half so far but Adam Curtis' Bitter Lake is really good. It's about the rise of Wahabbism out of Saudi Arabia into Afghanistan,yemen etc after FDR? Signed a deal for Saudi oil.
