Wet Borders: Microslums and Meanders: A very interesting article on InfraNet Lab about Migingo Island, a microslum within Lake Victoria near Kenyan / Ugandan borders. Also Uganda’s shifting borders due to Semliki River shifting its course and the involuntary defection (of sorts) of its people.

Bear in Heaven / Ultimate Satisfaction

Pitchfork:

Elsewhere, as its title indicates, “Ultimate Satisfaction” is an IMAX-wide ode to what starts out as a simple thought, then turns bodily— the refrain of “coming down!” charts the sensation spreading like a spasm

“If academia is to be believed, then architecture is something in the drawings of Vitruvius or Le Corbusier; if today’s architecture critics are to be believed, architecture is just parametrics and Zaha Hadid. Either way, it’s claustrophobic.”

Lars von Trier’s Antichrist. Quite easily the best film I’ve watched this year. It’s been a while since I’ve watched something like this that is so beautifully shot and provocative. It’s a difficult film that compels multiple readings, whether or not these layers of meanings are successful is another story. It’s a convenient reading but I loved how the film starts with “a child is dead” and comes grief, pain and despair. Charlotte Grainsbourg as von Trier’s usual tormented female protagonist is stunning as with her predecessors. Redefines the horror genre.
