Funny Schizo man from Red Flood

THANK YOU!!!

saved my EPQ thank you!!! :)

The slicing of the eye in Un chien andalou was actually a real eye on a shaved cow’s head btw, not a hard boiled egg

Every step trying to understand Artaud is important. Thank you for this!

Is it possible that there isn't a documentary on this extraordinary, multifaceted being???? I can not find anything.

Bovine eye..not a hard-boiled egg. see the furred face? Easy to acquire.

thank you!

You have an incredible way of describing things! Helped me with a group performance of spurt of blood. Very underrated

This looks like a Dark Souls boss 😭😭😭

Thanks for saving my a level grades good sir

The Beats have almost nothing in common with Artaud. Artaud would not have liked Ginsberg at all, as an artist or as a person. The pop stars of the 60's are in the same category of people who claim influence by Artaud but have no real understanding of or interest in Artaud. Artaud just became a flat, commercial, one-dimensional symbol of rebellion that many people projected their own interests onto without any real understanding of Artaud. One proof of this is that there is no body of worked out interpretation of Artaud that stands today as coherent and applicable in theater or any other art form. There are actually relatively few people who have studied Artaud deeply enough to have more than a superficial grasp of what he was really about. If you made a long list of the people who are supposedly influenced by Artaud and either asked them personally for, or tried to deduce from their work, an explanation of what Artaud meant by "the body without organs" you would find nothing. But if you don't have some real grasp of what "the body without organs" meant to Artaud then you don't know Artaud. Artaud is still the most misunderstood famous/infamous person in history.

It's funny that you did read "Jerzy" like "Jersey".

This is absolutely, positively, the best Sega powered, red and white clad brass band to ever cover this song. A few clams here and there, but great choreography.

A brilliant interpretation, great orchestration, and performed superbly on Segways. Always puts a smile on my face when I watch it.

Now that’s love.

Strange man

great lecture / tanks a lot

“We swear by the Trivium method it’s indispensable. Unless of course we’re talking about racism, climate change, vaccine, feminism, socialism or whatever latest topic The Guardian tells us is off the table for debate and enquiry. Other than that The Trivium is the best”

Two of these people betray the whole purpose of classical education and are stuck in the mindset of programming students with “right think” as opposed to teaching them how to think through issues, educate themselves, and form opinions. Sad to see.

merci - like it

One year ago today, exactly, this was posted. Poetic tribute for sure. College level daring and inspiring.

Thank you! First lecture of yours. Subscribed. Please don't stop doing these. What a pleasure to find a quality lecture on a difficult topic on KZbin. Thank you a thousand times.

Martin demonstrates that he doesn’t understand the Trivium (or perhaps only wants to employ it when it suits his biases) when he says that there might be a problem with “the truth” at around 31:40. If the conclusion arrived at seems dubious to you, you don’t take issue with the conclusion simply because it doesn’t fit your bias-doing so is contrary to the Trivium. The distinction I believe he’s trying to make is the one between rhetoric that cogently builds upon the proper grammar and logic as contrasted with rhetoric that, despite seeming persuasive, is flawed in its grammar cited and/or its logic. A conclusion arrived at hastily should not so carelessly be called truth, it should just be called an opinion, a tentative conclusion, or a best a hypothesis. If based on prior, more thorough examination you came to a contrary conclusion and it was more compelling, Then as he said, it would be illuminating to discuss the seeds of said conclusion. But proper sequential utilization of the trivium would not lead to “erroneous conclusions” (which he calls “the truth”-the subtext being that it’s not true) in the first place as defined by the constraints of said system. If faulty logic is spotted or facts that may indeed not be factual are cited in an argument had in a classroom, the argument should progress no further from said potentially baseless claims or fallacious reasoning. It’s irresponsible for an educator espousing the Trivium to let his/her students to proceed with their argument on false premises. Also, he cites the vacillating opinions of the WHO on mask wearing as being representative of the contentiousness of “facts” even though this organization doesn’t provide evidence for their claims. More disempowerment an slave mindednesses being encouraged by implying we should just believe whatever authority says when we, as denizens of the information age, can simply educate ourself on mathematically sound methods of interpreting statistical information and studies so we can go through the data on mask wearing for ourselves. Anyways, another sophist claiming to represent critical thinking is nothing new under the sun 😜

bauhaus brought me here ;)

Good discussion. Important topic. Unfortunately very difficult listen due to sound quality. Could it be fixed?

Very interesting, very insightful. Although my extended family is more actively engaged in the world of theatre than myself, after having first heard of Artaud (in a video game of all places), I wanted to learn more about him and the Theatre of Cruelty. This presentation was exactly what I was after.

amazing video!

What an interesting lecture it was, thank you very much...

thank uu this was very helpful<3

🤔🤣😷👍🇬🇧

Thank you for taking the time to make this. Extremely helpful and you are very entertaining.

Excellent interview about drama education.

to learn anything whatsoever to build Knowledge Understanding Wisdom i think the basic simple but fundamental process of asking/using to gather info =Who What Where When Which Why How is key.

does anyone know the context for this performance? like what group is this?

that was um ... F À N T À S T I Q U E

One of these on Stanislavski would be much appreciated if you ever have the time! Love your lectures :)

discovered Ken a few days ago what a genius

I was not to avoid this after all, was I ;).. Thanks for posting as I missed it

Wonderful guy - his stint on Til Death was wonderful stuff. They could probably have seen his eyebrows from satellite photographs!

How can you know the age of the earth when Einstein tells us that time is itself an illusion. Its a man-made concept. If you took man out of the equation how old then would the earth be, would it even be here? People are being lost in their illusions and delusions maybe its all a FOLIE à DEUX. It certainly seems to me that the Gnostics were absolutely spot on and we are in hell and everything is a lie.

I have the book by Sister Miriam Joseph and Jan Irvin takes issue with it because in his opinion you have to teach the three arts in the correct order which Sister MJ gets wrong. Jan says its Grammar first then Logic then Rhetoric. Grammar deals with the Who, What, Where and When Logic with the Why Rhetoric the How All nicely expressed by Rudyard Kipling: “I had six honest serving-men They taught me all I knew, their names were Where, What and When and Why, How and Who.” Rudyard Kipling Today in schools in the Occident children are not being taught the Trivium they are being exposed to what is called the Prussian system, which came about because the young men of Prussia were educated and refused to fight for their Kaiser. The Powers that be thought this was not in their best interest they wanted conformist not iconoclast, people smart enough to push buttons but not smart enough to ask awkward questions and work problems out for themselves. Having just spent the last 19 years as a peripatetic teacher in both State and Private schools I noticed a difference. The difference being children from affluent homes reading more eclectically for example 11-year-olds reading Tom Paine's The Rights of Man compared to children in State schools many of whom were struggling to read. Where this leads to is where we find ourselves as a society today, most people have been indoctrinated to obey perceived authority figures and much of what we have been told is true is in fact false. Trust in government and mainstream media at an all-time low. At 60 I find myself halfway through a law degree and it is clear to me that people are not challenging what they are being taught. For example, on my course, we are not being taught about England's Constitution but the UK Constitution despite the fact the UK is a tenuous political union. Parliament they claim is both Sovereign and Supreme both claims provably false. We have not been imbibed with the English Constitution for a reason and that reason is they want to destroy both our Sovereignty and our Constitution.

Thank you for making me think, Martin! Interesting that Matthew Arnold on culture faced all the dilemmas that we do now but in a different age, with different pressures, memes and vibes! I suspect that humankind has faced these problems for millenia. Why don't the phillistines and barbarians care about society? In my opinion it's because we all by nature tend to conform to the 'law of first comparisons' because we assume 'different' ideas, contexts and people are a threat. In my opinion, although we should appreciate, teach and love perfection, this concept will vary for different people. For example, tyrants (including dicatators and even some mothers!) may think perfection for them is power over others - anything other than that is a threat. Perhaps the fundamental attitude we need is the acceptance of our own constant ignorance about many matters at any given point in time. We need perhaps to start by valuing ourselves and the best of our culture for us and yet be curious about what others know and value. We might then be able to teach children to value themselves and what they know and be curious about what they can learn from others!

Hi Martin, Just thanking you for your UTube videos - absorbing - especially 'On Curriculum and Culture' which I finished this morning - as a painter I found myself a very engaged student! I hope to view the other five in FOT. I realise I have black holes in my knowledge of philosophy and literature! Although I hope to get on with my painting on finishing writing my next book you have opened up some intriguing reading and thought pathways, which seem likely to inspire me. Jen

Sorry about the double posting ... Same Q though

Did you read Laland’s book - Darwin’s unfinished symphony - when David promoted it last summer? I immediately think of the tiny fish ... So is the ability of copying it?
