True Detective, Form and Void
“I have very important work to do. my ascension removes me from the disk and the loop. I am near final stage. Some mornings, I can see the infernal plane.”

To get the desired effect in True Detective (S1), Arkapaw was particular about the type of lighting and lenses that were used. “We wanted to make subtle delineations between the three different time periods.”
- “In this case, what you are seeing are recollections of the events that happened before, and for those… we wanted to be true to the veil of the time that had passed.” Arkapaw used an older, larger set of vintage lenses from Panavision for the flashback scenes. The re-housed lenses “aren’t technically perfect; they have aberrations in them, so it was a little bit softer and impressionistic.”
- For the 2002 time period, Arkapaw wanted the audience to focus more on the characters, so he used longer lenses. “The focus is a little more shallow,” he says, adding that the audience has less information in the shots and “is forced to be in the head space of the characters themselves.”
- Standard lenses were used for the present-day shots. “It was the other end of the story, like you would see the world today, so we wrapped it up in a sort of natural way.” (x)

I have no empathy for the women who regret dogpiling amber heard bc they couldn’t convince me for a second that Depp didn’t do all of that. None of that misinformation campaign had any effect on me. You have to have a deeply misogynistic streak to have found any kind of validity or humor in that.

true detective went meet this quirked up white boy with curious swag and hes the loneliest smartest man in the world who happens to be very sad. why? because see his mom left him with his nutcase survivalist dad when he was two and he had to live in alaska for all his formative years off the grid before he returned to texas cause the only thing that kept him going as a kid was the memory of this place where he was never cold. he met a woman and had a daugther who got killed by a speeding car in their driveway and his marriage fell apart immediately after and hes a cop (suspension of disbelief starts here bc no cop in real life is a human being remember this) and on one raid he kills a meth addict cause he injected his own baby to death with it and instead of ending up in prison (no good cops remember this) they have him passed around undercover narco takedowns like a blunt and all he gets out of it is chemical flashbacks and chronic insomnia and a permanently fucked up head and an offer for a pension he refuses and asks to be put on homicide instead and. this is all before the first episode before the plot happens how amazing is that. filled with trauma from every possible angle and direction come watch what else we will put him through. and his name is rust. like Goddamn man

Mire Lee (b. 1988 in Seoul; lives and works between Amsterdam and Seoul)
Untitled (My Pittsburgh Sculpture), 2022
metal, silicone oil, resin, dosing pumps, steel wire ropes, barbed wire, and other mixed media
Commissioned by Carnegie Museum of Art for the 58th Carnegie International
Mire Lee employs more robust sculptural materials such as metal, plaster, and concrete alongside glycerin, silicone, and various types of resin, which are often animated by electric motors and pumps. The artist's works sometimes recall the internal systems of the human body — its organ functions, convulsions, failures, fluids, and excretions as a way of probing the depths and outer limits of human behavior and the psyche.
The centerpiece of Lee's new sculpture is a steel and glass decagonal form that contains flexible, kinetic components turning in a viscous fluid. Here, soft internal elements become entangled with each other and come into contact with hard, unforgiving materials. An extension of the artist's exploration of pain, this commission connects with the machinations set in motion in Lee's prior works that mine a vocabulary of the ugly, neglected, strained, vulnerable, and leaky. In this dark sublime, the artist seeks generative and redemptive lessons. She observes: "I've always seen heart-wrenching things as beautiful…. I do not believe we can eliminate violence or toxicity in its entirety from the world, but we can develop responses other than disgust or withdrawal." Taking one step further, Lee asks how we might come to understand and make something of pain, violence, or injustice that is compounded, knotted up, and which has no single source or cause.
