The 20 Greatest Historical Myths, Part 2 By : Mark Juddery
When it was released in 1903, "The Great Train Robbery" pioneered several techniques, includes jump cuts, medium close-ups and a complex storyline. But the first feature film? It was only ten minutes long! Even most short films are longer than that. The first feature-length film was a 100-minute Australian film, "The Story of the Kelly Gang", released three years later. Even if you think of a feature film as the "feature" of a cinema program, the title would go to one of a number of French films made during the 1890s (but I won't name one, as that could cause any number of arguments).

The Redeeming and Liberating Power of Literature – Part 2 By : Ugur Akinci
Standup comedy, for example, is notorious for completely avoiding that issue of honesty. Although we always laugh at what we instinctively recognize to be very true and thus appreciate the comedian for giving voice to what we usually do not have the courage to say out aloud in the open, in terms of its overall intention, standup comedy seeks to grab us, make us laugh, and then leave us exhausted with that one-two punch. It is powerful because it always catches us off-guard but there is no healing, no redemption in its aftermath. Like the morning of a loveless one night stand, it leaves us emptier than before.
The Redeeming and Liberating Power of Literature – Part 1 By : Ugur Akinci

Improvised Maps - Dispatx Art Collective Spring 2007 By : Oliver Luker
Mapping can be considered as a translation procedure between these shared forms, connecting data elements and suggesting isomorphic and symbolic association. Such a procedure, much like the creative method, involves aspects of choice, compression, selection and abstraction. The notion of maps can be interpreted in other ways - from simple cartographic metaphors, such as the plotting of narrative, to more objective applications involving topological simplification, mathematical function and problem solving.
The Plague of Language - Dispatx Art Collective Summer 2006 By : Oliver Luker
In considering The Plague of Language it is fundamental to acknowledge the exploration and analysis of various language forms that have emerged in the last century, and to refer them where possible to the creative arts. The possibilities of exploration are enormous, whether in the realm of sound, music and the spoken word, within the visual arts and literature, or in relation to the body.
Abandonment - Dispatx Art Collective Spring 2006 By : Oliver Luker
The act of abandonment implies transfer - something orphaned is passed to another controlling agent, something is gained. This positive reading is atypical - yet if apathy and isolation are the more immediate connotations at a personal level, what happens if we translate this experience into space and time or into perception itself?
Scar as Sign - Dispatx Art Collective Winter 2005 By : Oliver Luker
Life marks us. Our bodies carry records of information - of trauma and impact: traces of experience. These inscriptions, written into the fabric of our skin, bones, language and minds, are incredibly rich in signification. Marks can be linked to forces, to memory, or to the body's own record of actions and their consequence.
Detail of Detail - Dispatx Art Collective Spring 2005 By : Oliver Luker
All we know of the world is an approximation. Modern science now supports what the philosophers have always believed - what we call perception is an amalgam, a composite picture of the world about us. What does the detail tell us of the grander scale, and what can we know of the detail by looking at larger systems or objects?

When is Giving to the World's Poor is Bad By : Lance Winslow
Everyone has heard the Christian Saying; "Do not give a man a fish, teach him to fish" and for the most part this wisdom cannot be debated.

Urban Plight is not acceptable in the United States and many a politician has run on the platform of cleaning up the slums or shanty-towns.

The Truth about Small Non-Profit Groups Helping With HIV-AIDS in Africa By : Lance Winslow
If we look closely to all that is being done in Africa to combat HIV/AIDS the truth is not a lot. The population percentages in some parts of Africa with AIDS is so high the chances of contracting it are well over 80% and that means there is not a lot of hope. Many groups solicit monies from the public to assist in the combating of HIV/AIDS and yet when we look at the stats, well these groups as well-intentioned as they are fall miserably short.

Can We Save the Slum Dwellers in Nairobi? By : Lance Winslow
After considerable thinking on the Nairobi Slums by the Online Think Tank it seems like an overwhelming situation.

Action Plan For The Nairobi Slums By : Lance Winslow
The challenges of the Nairobi slums are not going away. Sending in good money after bad will not solve any of the problems there. As the estimated population in these slums grows to well over 2 million there will be more mouths to feed, more trash piled up, more sewage, more disease and less water.

Reflections On War And Peace By : Matthew Garden
It is impossible to give an opinion from a clean slate when discussing Tolstoy's War and Peace, so highly has it been placed on a pedestal by generations of critics, thinkers and writers. We have been told by others that this is a masterpiece of human thought, a culmination of our ability as a species to describe what it is around us that we find so fascinating and endearing. If one reads the book and finds it to be illuminated in a contrary light, have we missed some point that others of a more penetrating thought have grasped and from it taken such immense joy?
