Wisdom worth sharing, words worth remembering.

Technology is not neutral.
Technology has become as ubiquitous as the air we breathe so we are no longer conscious of its presence.
It's not that we use technology we live technology.
It's not just the effect of technology on the environment on religion on the economic structure on society on politics etc. It's that everything now exists in technology to the point where technology is the new and comprehensive host of nature of life.
Having been an educator for so many years I know that all a good teacher can do is set a context raise questions or enter into a kind of a dialogic relationship with their students.
But in fact if you look at film as a metaphor only through the negative can you have the positive print. What I'm trying to get to is the positive value of negation.
All tools have intrinsic politics and technology is the tool of now.
Mystery is gone to the certainty of technological principles. So the real terror the real aggression against life comes in the form of the pursuit of our technological happiness.
It is very easy to make clear what you want a film to say but I did not wish to engage in overt propaganda even for the right cause. I wanted to create an experience through the films something where people could have the freedom of their own response to them.
So to hope to be able to have peace to be able to have justice and environmental balance are consequences of our behavior not just our intentions.
I think it's naive to pray for world peace if we're not going to change the form in which we live.
