The Subject

The origins of particular documentary films are sometimes difficult to determine, precisely locate and capture in time and space. It is like searching for the source of a river. What marked the beginning of Intensity of Looking, a film about the great documentary film director Kazimierz Karabasz? The beginning of a documentary film’s creation determines the artistic process and elements that shape its strength, energy and main thought. These elements, which sometimes verge on intuition, guide this process, shaping the subject of the film, as well as its meaning, climate and aura. There is a thread connecting the author and the protagonist of the film, something that binds them together during work on the film, and sometimes lasts much longer. The three variants of what initiates the process of making a particular documentary film are as follows. The first is an encounter with a person who could be a character in a documentary film. The second is a thought, idea or problem that a filmmaker wants to address and discuss in a documentary by means of a certain character and story. The third is a return to a character who had been portrayed in a previous documentary film, to tell more about him or her. All three of these variants were the case in the making of Andrzej Sapija’s Intensity of Looking.

The springboard for this essay is the author’s encounter with the feeling of horror and her attempts to understand what place horror has in philosophy. The inquiry relies upon Leonid Lipavsky’s “Investigation of Horror” and on various textual plunges into the fanged and clawed (and possibly noumenal) abyss of Nick Land’s work. Various experiences of horror are examined in order to build something of a typology, while also distilling the elements characteristic of the experience of horror in general. The essay’s overall hypothesis is that horror arises from a disruption of the usual ways of determining the boundaries between external things and the self, and this leads to a distinction between three subtypes of horror. In the first subtype, horror begins with the indeterminacy at the boundaries of things, a confrontation with something that defeats attempts to define it and thereby calls into question the definition of the self. In the second subtype, horror springs from the inability to determine one’s own boundaries, a process opposed by the crushing determinacy of the world. In the third subtype, horror unfolds by means of a substitution of one determinacy by another which is unexpected and ungrounded. In all three subtypes of horror, the disturbance of determinacy deprives the subject, the thinking entity, of its customary foundation for thought, and even of an explanation of how that foundation was lost; at times this can lead to impairment of the perception of time and space. Understood this way, horror comes within a hair’s breadth of madness - and may well cross over into it.

Better Than

Based on observations made by researchers at MTs Kebunrejo Genteng, it turns out that there are still many weaknesses and obstacles faced, especially in learning (SKI). This was strengthened based on the results of interviews with some eighth grade students, their understanding in the learning process was felt to be lacking because most of them assumed that subjects (SKI) were subjects that tended to be less interesting and boring, because students had to memorize years or names. figure. Because it is considered a boring subject which in the end has an impact on the students' lack of understanding in receiving the subject matter, this can be seen in the odd semester scores on the material of the Islamic dynasty. This can be proven from 34 students of which 14 students scored below the minimum completeness criteria (KKM), namely 7. Based on the above problems, the researcher intends to describe the problem by using a learning medium that can help students understand the learning material. The learning media used were documentary films. The results of research on the use of documentary film learning media in class VIII C students at MTs Kebunrejo Genteng are that students are easier to understand and memorize Islamic dinasty subject matter (Ayyubiyah), student interest in learning is better than before, and students can achieve the above score (KKM) that is the value 7.

The Relationship

The subject of the article is the late Soviet cultural logics manifested through the medial specifics of the film. Based on the material of the documentary film "And Still I Believe..." by Mikhail Romm (1974), the question is raised about the relationship between voice, text and image, and cultural and anthropological modes they offer the viewer. One of the key concepts for analyzing the film and determining these modes is the concept of intermediality. In relation to Soviet culture, two main strategies of intermediality in Soviet art practices are identified, based on existing research, through which Romm's film is then analyzed. Of particular importance to the work is the category of the (mediatized) voice, its place in Soviet culture, and more specifically, Mikhail Romm's voice and the intermedial transformations that it undergoes in the film. The relationship between voice, text, and image in late Soviet documentary films demonstrates interesting artistic strategies and allows us to problematize the position of the Soviet subject.

Immigrant Experience

On the evening of January 28, 2013 we—the authors—sat in a darkened room at the local library in Hyattsville, Maryland, waiting a little anxiously for the third documentary film of the evening. We did not necessarily expect this film to be the most entertaining or thought-provoking, but it was more meaningful to us because we had been a part of its creation. The faces that would soon be moving across the screen were familiar. They were people we had interviewed, and, in some cases, these interviewees had become our friends. The participants, whose stories formed the subject matter of the film, saturated the sterile-sounding term "the immigrant experience" with strong individual voices and poignant details from their lives. Some of these participants were in the audience.

The Subject

This paper examines the function of music and sound as important elements of documentary film communication. It considers the soundtrack to have equal value as the visual track. This is even more appalling when sound is viewed as an aesthetic constituent of a film or as acoustic signs with equal communicative value as visual signs. Two films are used to show the role music and sound play in facilitating comprehension in a documentary film. Focusing particularly on testimonies, narrative commentary, filmic silence and music, the study shows how documentary films provide a unique medium to engage an audience in a story of facts and provides a unique vehicle for information transmission. The success of these two films among mainstream audiences indicates the power of a thoughtful and intentional soundtrack which accentuates the subject without dictating it and provides examples of a utilisation of music to build an emotional connection between the audience and the film’s subject matter.

Global Understanding

Writing from a wide range of historical perspectives, contributors to the anthology shed new light on historical, theoretical and empirical issues pertaining to the documentary film, in order to better comprehend the significant transformations of the form in colonial, late colonial and immediate post-colonial and postcolonial times in South and South-East Asia. In doing so, this anthology addresses an important gap in the global understanding of documentary discourses, practices, uses and styles. Based upon in-depth essays written by international authorities in the field and cutting-edge doctoral projects, this anthology is the first to encompass different periods, national contexts, subject matter and style in order to address important and also relatively little-known issues in colonial documentary film in the South and South-East Asian regions. This anthology is divided into three main thematic sections, each of which crosses national or geographical boundaries. The first section addresses issues of colonialism, late colonialism and independence. The second section looks at the use of the documentary film by missionaries and Christian evangelists, whilst the third explores the relation between documentary film, nationalism and representation.

The various published biographies and biographical notices of G.I. Gurdjieff (c.1865-1949) are of diverse style, quantity and content. While some have made considerable contributions to the subject, most attempts have reacted for or against Gurdjieff’s status as what might call an ‘Enlightened Master’. Little biographical writing on Gurdjieff has questioned the scope, reliability and prejudices of the sources. Further, possible resources have been neglected. The development in Gurdjieff’s ideas is often overlooked, his life is not sufficiently related to that development, and the lack of comparative research has failed to highlight Gurdjieff’s unique contributions. This article is structured in four parts. The first is an introduction, followed by an overview of existing biographical studies of Gurdjieff. The third part addresses bias in these studies, and this is followed by suggestions for future studies. It is concluded that fieldwork regarding the biography of Gurdjieff has been hampered by imperfect methodology. However, with better use of the source material, some of which has only recently been discovered, and a rigorous use of sources, a more balanced and nuanced picture of Gurdjieff’s life, and the development of his ideas and methods, should emerge.
