El faisán Argos

 Según Charles Darwin, El origen del hombre y la selección sexual, Austral, p. 523-24:


El faisán argo (fig. 52) proporciona un caso mucho más notable. Las plumas alares secundarias, desarrolladas de forma inmensa, están limitadas al macho, y cada una está adornada con una hilera de veinte a veintitrés ocelos, de unos tres centímetros de diámetro. Dichas plumas están asimismo elegantemente marcadas con bandas oblicuas y filas de manchas de un color oscuro, como la piel de un tigre y un leopardo combinadas. Estos hermosos adornos están escondidos hasta que el macho se exhibe ante la hembra. Entonces endereza la cola, expande sus plumas alares en un gran abanico o escudo circular, casi vertical, que se coloca frente al cuerpo. Cuello y cabeza se sitúan a un lado, de manera que quedan ocultos por el abanico, pero el ave, con el fin de ver a la hembra ante la que se está exhibiendo, a veces introduce la cabeza entre dos de las largas plumas alares (tal como ha visto mister Bartlett), y entonces adopta un aspecto grotesco. Éste debe ser un hábito frecuente en el ave en estado natural, porque mister Bartlett y su hijo, al examinar algunas pieles perfectas enviadas desde Oriente, encontraron un lugar entre dos de las plumas que estaba muy deshilachado, como si la cabeza se hubiera introducido frecuentemente allí. Mister Woods cree que el macho también puede mirar a hurtadillas a la hembra por un lado, más allá del borde del abanico.

The Nether

Retropost, 2014:

 
That's one of the big questions playwright Jennifer Haley ''05 MFA poses in The Nether, a half sci-fi, half police-procedural drama that debuted at Kirk Douglas Theatre in Los Angeles in 2013. It won the 2012 Susan Smith Blackburn Prize, and the Los Angeles Times described it as a "daring new drama" that "should have everyone squirming in their seats." Following on the heels of Haley's play Neighbourhood 3: Requisition of Doom, in which a violent video game becomes real-life for a quiet suburban town, The Nether continues Haley's exploration of the real-world damage that results when we unleash our darkest desires in cyberspace.

Haley says the inspiration for The Nether came from playwright Paula Vogel, who was on the Brown faculty while Haley was earning and MFA: write what your hate, Vogel advised. Haley hated TV police procedurals such as Law & Order and CSI. She also hated pederasts. "I thought, what's the worst thing someone can do? It was all an academic exercise."

In The Nether, a female detective faces off against the businessman who runs the virtual pedophilic playground called The Hideaway. During the interrogation at the police Station, the two debate the risks this new form of online entertainment poses. "You're telling them their desires are not only acceptable, but commendable!" exclaims the detective. "And in an entertainment that can scarcely be differentiated from real life!"

"As long as they don't do it in real life, who cares?" Sims, the businessman, fires back. "I've read the studies. No one has been able to draw a conclusive correlation between virtual behavior and behavior-in-world." Haley says she's agnostic on whether the web is changing us for the worse or the better. "I can's speak to whether one becomes a fundamentally different person or whether one's personality changes," she says. By The Nether's end great damage has been done, but the reasons and the blame are ambiguous.

After its summer run in London, The Nether will be produced next February in New York City at the off-Broadway MCC Theater. Haley wrote for the Netflix TV series Hemlock Grove last winter and hopes to continue. Meanwhile, she's at work on another play based on online identities—a woman spots her ex-lover in a video game and goes in search of him.

Synecdoche, New York

 

Viendo esta excelente película de Charlie Kaufman—Synecdoche, New York.  
 
Humor negro, no apto para depresivos—o quién sabe. Me pregunto si le hizo algún bien a Philip Seymour Hoffman. Como con el caso de Robin Williams, ahora se ven algunos de sus personajes como conteniendo mucha más parte del actor de lo que parecía, o sirviéndoles de expresión a una parte de su personalidad que no superaban ni trascendían mediante la actuación.
 
 
Aquí transcribo la excelente reseña que le hizo Roger Ebert, que vio en la película una auténtica experiencia (desengañada) de la vida—de la tuya, hypocrite lecteur.




I think you have to see Charlie Kaufman's "Synecdoche, New York" twice. I watched it the first time and knew it was a great film and that I had not mastered it. The second time because I needed to. The third time because I will want to. It will open to confused audiences and live indefinitely. A lot of people these days don't even go to a movie once. There are alternatives. It doesn't have to be the movies, but we must somehow dream. If we don't "go to the movies" in any form, our minds wither and sicken.

This is a film with the richness of great fiction. Like Suttree, the Cormac McCarthy novel I'm always mentioning, it's not that you have to return to understand it. It's that you have to return to realize how fine it really is. The surface may daunt you. The depths enfold you. The whole reveals itself, and then you may return to it like a talisman.

Wow, is that ever not a "money review." Why will people hurry along to what they expect to be trash, when they're afraid of a film they think may be good? The subject of "Synecdoche, New York" is nothing less than human life and how it works. Using a neurotic theater director from upstate New York, it encompasses every life and how it copes and fails. Think about it a little and, my god, it's about you. Whoever you are.

Here is how life is supposed to work. We come out of ourselves and unfold into the world. We try to realize our desires. We fold back into ourselves, and then we die. "Synecdoche, New York" follows a life that ages from about 40 to 80 on that scale. Caden Cotard (Philip Seymour Hoffman) is a theater director, with all of the hangups and self-pity, all the grandiosity and sniffles, all the arrogance and fear, typical of his job. In other words, he could be me. He could be you. The job, the name, the race, the gender, the environment, all change. The human remains pretty much the same.

Here is how it happens. We find something we want to do, if we are lucky, or something we need to do, if we are like most people. We use it as a way to obtain food, shelter, clothing, mates, comfort, a first folio of Shakespeare, model airplanes, American Girl dolls, a handful of rice, sex, solitude, a trip to Venice, Nikes, drinking water, plastic surgery, child care, dogs, medicine, education, cars, spiritual solace -- whatever we think we need. To do this, we enact the role we call "me," trying to brand ourselves as a person who can and should obtain these things.

In the process, we place the people in our lives into compartments and define how they should behave to our advantage. Because we cannot force them to follow our desires, we deal with projections of them created in our minds. But they will be contrary and have wills of their own. Eventually new projections of us are dealing with new projections of them. Sometimes versions of ourselves disagree. We succumb to temptation -- but, oh, father, what else was I gonna do? I feel like hell. I repent. I'll do it again.

Hold that trajectory in mind and let it interact with age, discouragement, greater wisdom and more uncertainty. You will understand what "Synecdoche, New York" is trying to say about the life of Caden Cotard and the lives in his lives. Charlie Kaufman is one of the few truly important writers to make screenplays his medium. David Mamet is another. That is not the same as a great writer (Faulkner, Pinter, Cocteau) who writes screenplays. Kaufman is writing in the upper reaches with Bergman. Now for the first time he directs.

It is obvious that he has only one subject, the mind, and only one plot, how the mind negotiates with reality, fantasy, hallucination, desire and dreams. "Being John Malkovich." "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind." "Adaptation." "Human Nature." "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind." What else are they about? He is working in plain view. In one film, people go inside the head of John Malkovich. In another, a writer has a twin who does what he cannot do. In another, a game show host is, or thinks he is, an international spy. In "Human Nature," a man whose childhood was shaped by domineering parents trains white mice to sit down at a tiny table and always employ the right silverware. Is behavior learned or enforced?

"Synecdoche, New York" is not a film about the theater, although it looks like one. A theater director is an ideal character for representing the role Kaufman thinks we all play. The magnificent sets, which stack independent rooms on top of one another, are the compartments we assign to our life's enterprises. The actors are the people in roles we cast from our point of view. Some of them play doubles assigned to do what there's not world enough and time for. They have a way of acting independently, in violation of instructions. They try to control their own projections. Meanwhile, the source of all this activity grows older and tired, sick and despairing. Is this real or a dream? The world is but a stage, and we are mere actors upon it. It's all a play. The play is real.

This has not been a conventional review. There is no need to name the characters, name the actors, assign adjectives to their acting. Look at who is in this cast. You know what I think of them. This film must not have seemed strange to them. It's what they do all day, especially waiting around for the director to make up his mind.

What does the title mean? It means it's the title. Get over it.
