Manufactured Landscapes Haunts Me

By Katherine Dodds On October 20, 2006 | 1 Comments

I saw Jennifer Baichwal's film for the first time at the Vancouver Film Festival last week. Last night it opened in Vancouver (it's been playing for several weeks in Toronto) and it will open in other Canadian cities soonI've seen a fair amount of films lately, but the flashbacks from this "art and horror" flick have been haunting me. The visual vastness of Peter Mettler's cinematography, punctuated by Edward Burtynsky's still shots, perfectly portrays the dark soul of Walmart and its kin. Manufactured Landscapes lays bare what globalization, mass-market consumption, and techno-waste actually looks like.

Visible Evidence In Brazil

By Katherine Dodds On August 31, 2006 | 0 Comments

Earlier this month I traveled to Sao Paulo and Rio, in Brazil, to participate in the Visible Evidence Documentary Conference. Invited by Concordia Communications Professors Liz Miller and Tim Scwhab to be part of their panel "Branding Politics — Emerging Forms of Distributing Political Documentaries", this was an opportunity to reflect on what we are trying to achieve with HelloCoolWorld and our work as idea distributors and net workers. (Or "discourse networkers" in more academic parlance!) Thanks to a travel grant from the Canada Council I was able to attend this conference and it was a real opportunity to think our collective project through in an inspiring setting.
