There you have it. Anthropic's CEO said it: The murder of more than 100 schoolgirls in Minab targeted by Anthropic's CLAUDE "is a use case that doesn't even violate our red lines." Time to rise up against these technofeudal war criminals.
CEO of Anthropic Dario Amodei awkwardly smiles through his answer to a question about why Claude AI directly contributed to the US Military bombing of the elementary school in Minab.

There is not a lot of explicitly fetish-oriented work in museum spaces. When it’s present, it’s been laundered, as I suspect this has been, into not *really* being about fetish or filtered through high class sensibilities that transmute the work from “dirty” fetish to “real” art.

Original BLAIR WITCH PROJECT star Heather Donahue/Rei Hance has explained why she's not part of the reboot team.
"I was offered an agreement that, for me personally, raised difficult long-term questions about rights, future technological use of identity and voice, the ability to speak freely, and compensation. Ultimately, it just wasn’t something I felt comfortable signing.
"I genuinely wish everyone involved well. But preserving my autonomy mattered more to me."

His photography is such a neglected topic. I always feel like that granular surreal, unsettling quality of his work is even more tangible in this medium.

First as tragedy, then as farce...then as farce, then as farce, then as farce, forever. The indefinite farce is more tragic than the initial tragedy.

I keep thinking about Backrooms, that it’s a movie made by someone young now, about people being trapped in and forced to wander and sift through the banal and garish detritus of the late 20th century, warped and monstrous things being built from flimsy memories of that era
