An unsettling video that shows John Lennon speaking with a young man who has been camping out in his garden. He is convinced that John speaks to him through Beatles’ songs. John tries to help him see how impossible that is but realizes there is no way to get through to him. I have always been touched at how kind he was to the man, even inviting him in to eat with them. That part always disturbs me in light of what happened to John at the hands of a “fan”. Celebrities really never know what type of person they are being approached by in public. Is it a fan who just wants to let them know how important their work has been in their life, or someone who has constructed a fantasy world where the two of them live happily ever after if only they could meet? There are those who argue that you can’t complain about the spotlight when you placed yourself in it. But it seems to me the perks of being famous are far outweighed by the “fans” who create their own reality with themselves in a starring role.

One of the BEST ad campaigns about representation I have seen.

Everyone has a backbone. Use yours.

you know what i really like about this, is that it shuts the “it’s not offensive, it just means [alternate definition]” crowd right the fuck down. good.

Love this. Everyone please pass it on.

Video and performance artist Kalup Linzy isn’t one for subtlety. The 34-year-old’s video work, like the 2003 piece “All My Churen,” often takes inspiration from popular daytime soap operas. Linzy’s gender-bending alter egos – Patience, an aspiring singer, Labisha, a…

Performance and video artist Kalup Linzy’s feature film “Romantic Loner” went live on YouTubeyesterday. The film is part of a multi-platform performance project in which the Brooklyn-based artist tells the story of his alter ego “Kaye” — an artist who after a string of failed relationships attends an artist colony to “soul-search” — through lo-fi film, live performances, and a soundtrack available on iTunes with R&B songs featuring James Franco.
