Dear Catherine,
I've been sitting here thinking about all the things I wanted to apologize to you for.
All the pain we caused each other. Everything I put on you. Everything I needed you to be or needed you to say. I'm sorry for that.
I'll always love you 'cause we grew up together and you helped make me who I am.
I just wanted you to know there will be a piece of you in me always, and I'm grateful for that.
Whatever someone you become, and wherever you are in the world, I'm sending you love.
You're my friend to the end.
Love,
Theodore.

Flash Mob Culture Through Fatboy Slim's "Praise You" Music Video
In the late 1990s, a unique cultural phenomenon emerged, blending spontaneous performance art with the power of digital connection. Flash mobs, characterized by groups of people assembling suddenly in a public place to perform a seemingly pointless act and then spreading out, captivated the imagination of people. One iconic representation of this era is the music video for Fatboy Slim's "Praise You," directed by Spike Jonze and Roman Coppola.
Released in 1999, the "Praise You" music video offers a quirky, and cute portrayal of flash mob culture. Set in front of the historic Fox Theater in Westwood Village, Los Angeles, the video captures the essence of spontaneity and community-driven creativity that defined the era.
The video begins with a title card announcing a "Torrance Community Dance Group Presentation," immediately setting the stage for what unfolds next. What follows is a delightfully amateurish yet charming dance performance by a fictional group of dancers. Led by Spike Jonze himself and members of the renowned Rock Steady Crew, the routine is intentionally unpolished, adding to its quirky appeal.
We can see some examples of flash mob culture in that era’s TV series. Modern Family and Glee had flash mob scenes with En Vogue’s Free Your Mind, and Glee with The Safety Dance by Men Without Hats.

What sets the "Praise You" video apart is its incorporation of real-life reactions from unaware people. As the dancers break into their routine, the camera captures genuine responses from pedestrians, with various emotions visible. This element of authenticity adds a layer of unpredictability and excitement to the performance, blurring the lines between art and reality.
Throughout the video, the dancers interact playfully with their environment, incorporating elements of improvisation and spontaneity. They wave at observers, engage with the camera, and even pause their routine to acknowledge the crowd. This sense of community and connection demonstrates the spirit of flash mob culture, where individuals come together to create moments of shared joy and spontaneity.
As the performance climaxes, the crowd outside the theater applauds the dancers, culminating in a heartwarming display of appreciation and camaraderie. The video's feel-good ending reinforces the notion that, despite its seemingly frivolous nature, flash mob culture has the power to bring people together and uplift spirits.
In retrospect, the "Praise You" music video serves as a nostalgic snapshot of an old era, capturing the essence of a cultural phenomenon that defined the late 1990s and early 2000s. It celebrates the spirit of spontaneity, creativity, and community that made flash mobs a memorable and cherished part of our cultural landscape. And like the dancers in the video, we can't help but join in the joy of it all.

10 Years of 'Her': What the Film Got Right about AI, What It Did Not
Tumblr media
Spike Jonze's Her is one of those quiet films that does not call attention to itself but whose stature would only increase with the rise of Artificial Intelligence – and our loneliness – writes Satyen K.

Her (2013)
Her 2013 #her #spikejonze #crazydiscostu
Today we’re taking a look at Her (2013), a film about a sentient AI that isn’t trying to kill anyone. I know right??? Normal service will resume shortly! In a near future, a lonely writer develops an unlikely relationship with an operating system designed to meet his every need. Cast Joaquin Phoenix and Scarlett Johansson put in fantastically contrasting performances but not in quality.…
