- Satoshi Kon - Editing Space & Time (YouTube)
Four years after his passing, we still haven’t quite caught up to Satoshi Kon, one of the great visionaries of modern film. In just four features and one TV series, he developed a unique style of editing that distorted and warped space and time. Join me in honoring the greatest Japanese animator not named Miyazaki.
- OK gesture (Wikipedia)
The OK gesture or OK sign or ring gesture (symbol/emoji: “👌”) is performed by joining the thumb and index finger in a circle, and holding the other fingers straight or relaxed away from the palm. Commonly used by scuba divers, it signifies “I am OK” or “Are you OK?” when underwater. In most English-speaking countries it denotes approval, agreement, and that all is well or “okay”. In other contexts or cultures, similar gestures may have different meanings including those that are negative, offensive, financial, numerical, devotional, political, or purely linguistic.
