It's certainly intriguing that Lovecraft chose the octopus as an inspiration for the most famed of his cosmic entities. Great Cthulhu is often interpreted as more animal than humanoid in nature. Perhaps because he was discribed as unclothed ( nudity has often been considered one of the primary elements separating humankind from animals in human history) he seems more potentially a marauding monster than intellectually gifted God/ priest. Nonetheless we might conclude that Great Cthulhu, who inhabits a mighty city now sunken at the bottom of earth's Pacific Ocean, and is able to communicate telepathically with humans while there, is a highly intelligent if dangerously oblivious to humanity in general. Although some will argue otherwise, Lovecraft never tells us exactly who or what is responsible for the entombment of the 'squid/ dragon' and the rest of his 'cosmic octopi' minions. Also surprising to some casual readers is the idea that Cthulhu and his followers are 'land creatures' and not originally ocean dwellers by nature. Today we are more aware of the extraordinary intelligence and remarkable abilities of the various types of octopus species to almost instantly change hue and texture, camouflage their body colors, alter shapes, and squeeze through the tiniest of cracks in order to pursue prey and escape predators. The NETFLIX series, MY OCTOPUS TEACHER, explored the remarkable relationship between a man and an octopus. Also of interest is the book pictured below which explores alternatives of consciousness beyond the human type. Following in the footsteps of Poe, Lovecraft's fiction was remarkable for the way it delved the depths of the human mind and the manifestations of madness in the face of unearthly realities.

The Octopus tale, why not?

I don't know if you have had the opportunity to watch "my octopus teacher" documentary (Netflix). It was pretty obvious; I already knew what was coming to me: lover of animals and usually empathic beyond my intentions (especially with them); halfway through the documentary I almost felt like an octopus. On the other hand, what about that gentleman who is at a hard moment in his life? He goes into a kelp forest in South Africa where you can find only 100 different species of sharks, he talks about intuition but I can't help other alternatives crossing my mind.

The good thing is that in the end, the man is dealing with this opportunity, turning his life around, and the result is worth it. So aside from the fact that I have restricted my diet one step further (before I didn’t eat meat for years) for a little while, the learning and moral this film conveys is truly amazing and positive.

La historia del pulpo, ¿porqué no?

No sé si habrán tenido la oportunidad de ver el documental “lo que el pulpo me enseñó” (Netflix).  Antes de verlo ya sabía lo que se me venía encima: Amante de los animales y habitualmente empática más allá de mis intenciones (especialmente con ellos); a mitad del documental ya casi me sentía pulpo. Pero, ¿qué me decís de ese señor que se encuentra en un punto de inflexión de su vida? Se adentra en un bosque de algas de Sudáfrica donde podrían ustedes encontrarse solo 100 especies diferentes de tiburones, él habla de intuición, yo no puedo evitar que otras alternativas crucen mi mente.

Lo bueno es que al final al hombre se le presenta esta oportunidad que le salva, dando un giro a su vida, y el resultado merece realmente la pena. Así que obviando el hecho de que una servidora ha restringido su alimentación un grado más (ya no comía carne hace años) durante una temporadita, el aprendizaje y la moraleja que comunica esta película es verdaderamente asombroso y positivo.

I watched “My Octopus Teacher”, and I’m not sure if I was just drained from running a half marathon at the same time as watching it, but while a nature documentary like this would not normally get to me, this one fucked me up. I cried alone in the small workout room of my apartment complex over the life of an octopus and the healing bond between man and nature.

My Octopus Teacher

Gorgeous underwater footage

Interspecies friendships are beautiful

Can't stand this white dude projecting his feelings onto a wild animal. I wish they had gone with another narrative device. It's physically painful for me to listen to because I can't tell him to use an "I feel" statement instead.

Maybe I'm used to better nature documentaries than this but

How much did Netflix pay to get this nominated for an Oscar? OR Do Oscar voters not watch BBC Earth?

I'm sorry but it feels like he fell in love with her

And I'm not ready for that yet
