The Unaired Two-Page Conversation
I think we're past the point of possible spoilers, so as promised: the 2pg book conversation that was cut for time (and realism). Originally, I was experimenting with "unsent" books as part of the conversations, but I thought it would ultimately be too confusing and opted not to use that, so anything you see with a strikethrough is an "unsent" book.

"H took a big risk imo by getting into bed with the Azoffs, as a figure of speech!!! Especially senior is very very powerful in the industry which is great for H as long as they’re good friends. But if it goes bad for some reason, it’ll really really go bad! "
Oh definitely! That whole family is scary:
https://pagesix.com/2015/04/24/irving-azoffs-wife-threatened-sony-after-movie-snub/
"Shelli Azoff — the wife of music mogul Irving Azoff, who once sent a live snake to a rival — threatened Sony Pictures brass last summer after the studio refused to let the Azoffs screen the film “Sex Tape” on their yacht."
Background: Shelli was mad because she was feuding with the wife of Michael Lippman. He was throwing a party and invited Irving, but told him not to bring Shelli. When she found out, she shipped a live snake to Lippman’s front door step with the words, “Now you’ve got two snakes.”

Still Life and Product Photography
New brief called “Cheap”, but there is nothing cheap about the objects I acquired during the object finding exercise at 3 different pound shops. First shop was PoundBasket in Port Glasgow, 2nd was a pound stretch shop next to Tesco in Irvine, and 3rd was a pound shop at Irvine Mall. Ok, so what have I learned thus far? Well, I’ve learned that I am bipolar all over again. Bipolar people have difficulties with their moods, and their mood swings from different poles, but they also have problems mangaging money and making decisions.
Those last 2, yeah, that is me through and through the last few weeks. I bought enough stuff, and I am broke, to cover the entire class. That being said, much of it is fun, and you too could find this in your xmas stocking this year once this brief is finished ;). Yeah, I mean you.
This all being said, and, I digress, were some of the items a bit more than a pound? Yep, I won’t lie, but it astounds me what kinda-cool stuff you can get for £1 pound here in the UK, because in America your hard earned $1 gets you diddly.
Soon I will share an image of all the stuff I bought. LOL, yep, the horror :D.
This little guy below is so cool. You open it up and pour him into your hand and let the fun commence!
Tumblr media
I told you! I cannot get everything I bought on this A1 sheet of white paper! The yellow bottle is the coolest, except, someone had stolen one of the batteries. There is a tiny wire inside with very small inline fairy lights. I had to order new batteries. They will be to here tomorrow. I have no idea whether it works or not yet. I walked up to the counter and asked the lady, ‘Is this really £1?”. She said, “Uh, yeah?” Ok, Sold! The Daisys on a stick, well, those are so cute, and the green bottle, it is shiny and has a skull hanging from it. Decisions, Decisions!
Tumblr media
The first photographer and image I want to speak about is Laura Letinsky, a still-life photographer and her image “Untitled #54 from Hardly More Than Ever series 2002″.
When I first saw this image I felt like I walked into a room where there had been an indoor picnic happening, that must have ended because the ‘2′ people went outside to enjoy the sun after the rain had stopped. I say 2 people because there are 2 plates, however, could this be only a small section of a larger table? There is a sensuality about the scene. Peaches have long since represented the feminine. So what does the lollipop represent?
Being a dark person, I was pleasently surprised at how much I loved the colours in this image. In the background, the white looks muted green which is beautiful against the delicate oranges and reds in the image. Even the shadows appear a bit green. I even love the wrinkles in the make-shift table cloth and used napkin beneath the melon. I am actually waiting for someone to walk back in and grab one of those peaches or that lollipop before anyone else can.
What also catches my eye is the wonky line of the sloping table and the asymetric hanging of the back of the table cloth and leaving a bit of floor to give us a feeling of stability even though it appears there is none. There is a haphazardness to the whole seen giving the implication that the festivities are still going on elsewhere, otherwise, this would have already been cleared away.
Tumblr media
Laura Letinsky,  Untitled #54 from Hardly More Than Ever series 2002. Courtesy of the artist and Yancey Richardson Gallery, New York. (//www.umanitoba.ca, 2019)
Laura Letinsky was bornin 1962 in Winnipeg, Canada. She attended the University of Manitoba in 1986, and Yale School of Art in 1991.
Another of her works I really like is below . . .
It this too considered a still-life? I think so, yes, even though these are images of objects arranged. What brings these pieces together are the colours set against the vast violet white of the background. 
Tumblr media
Untitled #40, from the series Ill Form & Void Full, 2014. Archival pigment print. 49.5 x 58.12 inches, edition of 9.  (Yanceyrichardson.com, 2019)   
I am trying to stretch my mind and my acceptance around the fact that this is truly still-life. As an artist, I rail, however, I cannot deny that this is a spectacular still-life . . .
The colours, the placement. You can almost taste colours of the fruit. There is a depth to this piece, yet it is composed entirely of images cut and arranged on a surface.
Tumblr media
(The Photographers' Gallery, 2019)             
The second photographer I would like to take a look at is Peter Lippman.
The first image below is so apt; ash covering the old mechanical camera. A death of the analogue. But for me, not quite yet. The image is almost in total -grey with a very hint of blue? Subtle soft light causes a gradation across the still life and picking out highlights here and there. It could be natural light, or a soft box on low power. Even though the camera lies amongst the greys, there is good contrast, and the image gets its meaning across.
Tumblr media
(Harvey et al., 2019)
The title of the image below is Banane. Apparently, it is a plantain fruit/pod from the banana family. This image is the plant on black background.The deep contrast and muted reds and purples coupled with the green of the stem really makes this image come alive. It reminds me of the human heart. The subtle smooth texture of the leaves juxtaposed with the texture at the crown of the plant is a visual treat.
Tumblr media
(Harvey et al., 2019)
First of all, I actually love the colour of the background in this next image by Lippman. Is it the true colour of the scene, or is it burned in, a gradient as it gets darker toward the bottom? The broken glass provides visual texture and interest. Since these are fragrances for men, I think it adds a sense of danger to make men want the products. Heavy shadows weight the objects to the background. As for lighting, it could be continuous, but probably flash. I am not yet proficient enough to make that decision yet. 
Tumblr media
The 3rd photographer I’ve decided to write about here is Guido Mocafico. Mocafico is an Italian photographer. Though he now is getting more into the fine art of photography, he has been working as a commercial photographer with such names as Louis Vuitton, Rolex, Ralph Lauren and Chanel, just to name drop a few.
The image below is stunning. As soon as I saw it, I was intrigued, not only about the watch, but about that gorgeous shiny material it is sinking into. The highlights in the ‘goo’ mimic the hightlights of the watch and the white of the Roman numerals on the watch face. This makes the product really pop in my opinion. I can’t find a thing to criticize in this product image. The blacks and whites are perfectly balanced.
Tumblr media
Heure noire. Numéro 122. Avril 2011. (Mocafico.com, 2019)
The image below feeds the need for black in me. The contrast, the middle tones, the grays, the highlights. I really am pulled in my all the textures and shapes. The smooth of the watch-face, the different directions of the toothed gears and motorcycle chain or timing belt, whichever it is. The glossy motor oil spills across the gears causing them to become something more beautiful than grimy metal. The solid blacks in between all the shapes makes each piece stand out to be counted.

*I wrote the intro to this scholarly book about extinct payment systems.
https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/paid
Paid: Tales of Dongles, Checks, and Other Money Stuff                                  Edited by
Bill Maurer
and
Lana Swartz
                 Foreword by
Bruce Sterling
Overview
Museums are full of the coins, notes, beads, shells, stones, and other objects people have exchanged for millennia. But what about the debris, the things that allow a transaction to take place and are left its wake? How would a museum go about curating our scrawls on electronic keypads, the receipts wadded in our wallets, that vast information infrastructure that runs the card networks? This book is a catalog for a museum exhibition that never happened. It offers a series of short essays, paired with striking images, on these often ephemeral, invisible, or unnoticed transactional objects—money stuff. Although we’ve been told for years that we’re heading toward total cashlessness, payment is increasingly dependent on things. Consider, for example, the dongle, a clever gizmo that processes card payments by turning information from a card’s magnetic stripe into audio information that can be read by a smart phone’s headphone jack. Or dogecoin, a meme of a smiling, bewildered dog’s interior monologue that fueled a virtual currency similar to Bitcoin. Or go further back and contemplate the paper currency printed with leaves by Benjamin Franklin to foil counterfeiters, or khipu, Incan records kept in knotted string. Paid’s authors describe these payment-adjacent objects so engagingly that for a moment, financial leftovers seem more interesting than finance. Paid encourages us to take a moment to look at the nuts and bolts of our everyday transactions by looking at the stuff that surrounds them. Contributors Bernardo Bátiz-Lazo, Maria Bezaitis, Finn Brunton, Lynn H. Gamble, David Graeber, Jane I. Guyer, Keith Hart, Sarah Jeong, Alexandra Lippman, Julien Mailland, Scott Mainwaring, Bill Maurer, Taylor C. Nelms, Rachel O’Dwyer, Michael Palm, Lisa Servon, David L.

Trump’s attacks fuel concerns for whistleblower
New Post has been published on https://thebiafrastar.com/trumps-attacks-fuel-concerns-for-whistleblower/
Trump’s attacks fuel concerns for whistleblower
One pair of right-wing operatives even issued a $50,000 bounty for “any information” relating to the whistleblower’s identity shortly after the complaint became public, prompting the whistleblower’s attorney Andrew Bakaj to inform acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire in a letter last month of potential threats to his client’s safety.
House Democrats negotiating for the whistleblower’s testimony have reportedly been considering extreme measures to protect the anonymous intelligence official’s identity, which could be revealed by Trump and his allies with little or no legal consequence, experts say — the only person in the executive branch legally obligated to protect the whistleblower’s identity is the intelligence community’s inspector general, Michael Atkinson.
Recent leaks about the whistleblower’s potential political “bias” — first mentioned, though not elaborated upon, by Atkinson, who ultimately determined the complaint to be “urgent” and credible — have further fueled concerns among national security attorneys that the attacks will deter future whistleblowers from filing complaints and create an accountability vacuum in the intelligence community.
“People only come forward when they feel comfortable they won’t be retaliated against,” said Irvin McCullough, a national security analyst for the Government Accountability Project who focuses on intelligence community and military whistleblowing. “Given the president’s clear retaliatory animus toward intelligence whistleblowers, it’s hard to imagine more officials risking their careers to blow the whistle.”
That’s especially true, experts say, given how lopsided the risks are — even without the president calling for his or her exposure almost daily. Whistleblowers, specifically within the intelligence community, are vulnerable to retaliation and having their security clearances revoked, which could hinder their ability to secure a job in the intelligence community in the future.
On Wednesday, attorneys for the whistleblower rejected reports that their client had a “professional relationship” with a Democratic presidential candidate. “First, our client has never worked for or advised a political candidate, campaign, or party,” they said in a statement. “Second, our client has spent their entire government career in apolitical, civil servant positions in the Executive Branch. Third, in these positions our client has come into contact with presidential candidates from both parties in their roles as elected officials — not as candidates.”
It’s unclear whether the president knows the whistleblower’s name. His confidants are certainly interested; one person close to the president said he would like to find out the whistleblower’s identity, describing him or her as “a political operator” who seems to be part of “a coordinated campaign.”
But if Trump learned the person’s name, he could choose to release it in the name of “transparency” if he wishes, McCullough said. “It’d be a gross attack against the intelligence oversight system, especially given the chilling effect that release would create, but it’s within his power to launch that attack.”
There’s little stopping Trump’s congressional allies from revealing it, either. Members of Congress can be held accountable for violating congressional rules — for example, a member of the House Intelligence Committee illicitly disclosing information gleaned by that panel could be censured by the House. But lawmakers “can’t be legally held accountable for their official actions by any other tribunal,” said Kel McClanahan, executive director of the National Security Counselors law firm.
The Intelligence Community Whistleblower Protection Act of 1998, which provided a framework for intelligence community whistleblowers to report their concerns to Congress through their an inspector general, didn’t envision a world where a whistleblower seeking anonymity could be exposed online by social media sleuths with tens of thousands of followers.
Longtime intelligence officials said the culture of the CIA, where the whistleblower reportedly works, is apolitical, and it’s considered inappropriate to ask about someone’s partisan leanings. A former official Trump National Security Counsel noted the inscription carved on the wall of the agency’s headquarters in Langley, Va.: “And you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.”
“These are the people who look at that every morning and truly believe that the process was built to work,” the former official said.
Substantively, the whistleblower’s identity and claims about his or her political agenda might not matter much — not only did the White House release a rough transcript of the president’s call with the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelensky, that confirmed his account in detail, but the president in subsequent days went on to openly call on the government in Kyiv to investigate Joe Biden, the front-runner for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination.
Politically, however, Republicans perceive an opening. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, House Intelligence Committee ranking member Devin Nunes, and House Oversight Committee ranking member Jim Jordan, have repeatedly questioned the whistleblower’s credibility and motivations for coming forward, and the Republican National Committee has published news releases highlighting his or her attorneys’ alleged ties to Democrats.
“Frankly, any witness, when you’re trying to determine credibility, you have to ask two fundamental questions,” Jordan told NPR late last month. “The first one is: Do they have firsthand knowledge? Were they an actual witness? The second question is motivation. This whistleblower comes up short in both areas.”
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) has called for the whistleblower to be “cross-examined” in public, should Trump be impeached over the Ukraine scandal.
“If the whistleblower’s allegations are turned into an impeachment article, it’s imperative that the whistleblower be interviewed in public, under oath, and cross-examined,” Graham told Fox on Sunday.
Republicans have also seized upon a recent New York Times account to accuse the whistleblower of collaborating with House Democrats, who say they merely connected him or her with an attorney and advised he or she to file a formal complaint.
There are a couple statutes that could theoretically shield the whistleblower, but each has its own problem.
The Privacy Act, which does not apply to the White House, might prohibit executive branch officials from revealing the whistleblower’s identity, according to McClanahan. But finding them liable in court “would be extremely problematic because the Privacy Act is full of loopholes.”
Another potential “saving grace” for the whistleblower should Trump’s allies learn his or her identity is the Intelligence Identities Protection Act, which makes it a federal crime to intentionally disclose the identity of a covert agent to anyone unauthorized to receive classified information.
The legal peril is real: Scooter Libby, a former top George W. Bush administration official, was indicted in 2005 on charges related to his leaks about Valerie Plame, who was then an undercover officer at the CIA. In 2018, Trump pardoned Libby, who was convicted in 2007 for perjury and obstructing justice.
But McCullough cautioned that the scope of that statute only covers those working within the intelligence community whose identities are classified and not enough is known about the whistleblower’s status within the intelligence community to determine whether the statute would apply.

And he got the Fondation Cartier-Bresson in Paris to address six of those photographs to Boca Raton.
He set out, he said, “to ascertain appointment that had not been seen, or not been apparent often.” Amid the things he came up with are shots of accustomed activity by abrupt bartering photographers in Miami and Jacksonville, a baptize ballet at a Miami Bank auberge pond basin and a publicity attempt of a man in a sailor clothing casting a angle to a leaping dolphin at a day-tripper attraction.
Two of the paintings are by associates of a brief Florida accumulation of African-American artists accepted as the Highwaymen. They were young, ambitious, attractive to accomplish money and, experts say, some anticipation of themselves added as entrepreneurs than as artists. They corrective bold, basal landscapes, generally on 3-foot-by-2-foot panels, mainly in the 1960s and ’70s. They corrective bound — sometimes bristles or six works a day — and awash quickly, sometimes afore the acrylic was alike dry.
