Chris Hedges | BOYCOTT FedEx

A country that stops taking care of its own, that loses the capacity for empathy and compassion, that crumples up human beings and throws them away when it is done with them, feeds dark ideological monsters that inevitably rise to devour the body politic.

BELA GUT

whenever I come to Belgrade I dig up new lost treasures .... this time I found a box of negatives that belonged to my grandmother's first husband, whose name was BELA GUT. All the images were taken in Belgrade during the German occupation, btw 1941-1944.
It is really interesting to see how people looked back then, and even the most ordinary photos of everyday life can be fascinating from a half a century distance.
I'll try to scan more, but these negs are pain in the ass to scan, so tightly rolled and have been sitting in a box for decades, I can hardly feed them into the scanner .....

made it

Recently I worked on a project with HBO - the new series, HOW TO MAKE IT IN AMERICA, that just premiered yesterday. Done by the same team that did ENROURAGE. I shot stills that are spliced into the footage. It was my first time working for the TV/film industry, and it was an amazing experience, very intense at times. These people are much crazier than I am, that's for sure. So, yep, check it out, I hope you enjoy it.

If you have HBO ON DEMAND you can see it there, and if you don't and you are in the US, check it out here
