http://vook.tumblr.com Tim Barrus: Selbstzerst rung macht das Blut in den Adern gefrieren

http://vook.tumblr.com Most people think of Tim Barrus as a writer involved in literary scandal. Even at publications as radical as Drummer and Mach magazines, both gay leather/sm publications, Barrus was their most controversial editor. Then, he went mainstream in disguise. Esquire (nominated for a national Magazine Award). Houghton Mifflin. Time. Random House. PEN. The New York Times. Tim Barrus was denounced by the Wall Street Journal. Yet Barrus does not even see himself as a writer; certainly not one who belongs to a community or a genre. Tim Barrus is a whore, and says so. He is banished from the United States. The issue is identity. Barrus does not allow the superficiality of a literary scandal slow him down. He moves to France and creates Cinematheque Films. Cinematheque Films, based in Paris, is guerrilla education for a collective of at-risk adolescent HIV+/AIDS boys studying art in radical, self-directed ways. Prostitutes, junkies, thieves, and potential suicides. Traditional education has failed them. They are from the street. Tim Barrus connects with the writer, Mary Scriver -- or Prairie Mary -- through Arts Journal. She intrigues the boys of Cinematheque with the publication of her book, Bronze: Inside and Out. The boys of Cinematheque are connected at the hip to computer technology. It is how they communicate. Mary Scriver and Tim Barrus begin a dialogue that delves deeply into the ideas of censorship, the Internet, journalism, writing and publishing fiction, black lists, and how these things have a direct bearing on the lives of young boys struggling to create art, and struggling to survive. As creatures of the street, the boys have left "the life" of the Pigalle, the Parisian red light district. They are not strangers to how organized crime functions, how the drug culture still flourishes, and they are all too familiar with human trafficking. How the boys of Cinematheque Films become involved in extricating other adolescents just like them from the legacy of human trafficking is the story behind The Fallen and the Flight. A VOOK. Whose fictional narrative employs both text and video. This is the VOOK query for The Fallen and the Flight by Tim Barrus -- aka Nasdij -- and Mary Scriver -- aka Prairie Mary. Videos represented here are Cinematheque class assignments, mash-ups, photographic assignments, and poetry projects created by the boys of Cinematheque. They are represented here simply as creative examples of work that could correspond to the text and narration of the VOOK. The synopsis of the Fallen and the Flight is represented here as well in the linear order the VOOK adheres to. Most VOOKS contract out the video content to Hollywood-based production companies. The premise of The Fallen and the Flight is that the video would be created by the same people who created the text. Cinematheque Films: Arts Education: Students are allowed access to fair use art materials and mixed media in the teaching of iconic manipulation in photographic, video and film production. Representations and facsimiles posted here are presented as teaching tools and instruments employed to instruct students in the techniques and application of mixed media art and collage. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act allows art-teaching entities the fair use of such materials in classroom and teaching-research applications. Clicking the NEXT button at the bottom of each page will take you into the linear outline of the book. Again, as such, this is the QUERY. Each video and each chapter is accompanied with observations by Scriver and Barrus. THE FALLEN AND THE FLIGHT: MEMORY'S PROFANE PERSISTENCE
