Lauren Greenfield, director of the acclaimed FX docuseries “Social Studies,” sits down with Jon to talk about the year she spent shadowing a group of LA teens as they navigated their very online lives. The kids gave Lauren permission to screen record their phones for the duration of filming, and the result is an intimate, frenetic and often horrifying account of what it's like to be underage on the internet. But first! Mark Zuckerberg is crushing the podcast circuit with relatable anecdotes about his underground bunker and replacing human friends with AI companions. Meanwhile, his frenemy Elon Musk is making a not-so-triumphant departure from DOGE. Jon and Max discuss whether the Department's next step is a full-scale American panopticon, then say a little prayer for AI Pope Trump.

A group of teenagers agrees to allow a filmmaker to record the things they do on their phones for a year-long experiment. To see the world they see through their phones, to encounter their algorithms. The results are honest, at times pretty upsetting, and tell us a lot about the internet that Gen-Z finds itself on. In the middle of our big, confusing, national argument about teenagers and their phones, a few answers.

In her new FX docuseries “Social Studies,” the artist and filmmaker Lauren Greenfield delves into the post-pandemic lives—and phones—of a group of L.A. teens. Screen recordings of the kids' social-media use reveal how these platforms have reshaped their experience of the world in alarming ways. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz discuss how the show paints a vivid, empathetic portrait of modern adolescence while also tapping into the long tradition of fretting about what the youths of the day are up to. The hosts consider moral panics throughout history, from the 1971 book “Go Ask Alice,” which was first marketed as the true story of a drug-addicted girl's downfall in a bid to scare kids straight, to the hand-wringing that surrounded trends like rock and roll and the postwar comic-book craze. Anxieties around social-media use, by contrast, are warranted. Mounting research shows how screen time correlates with spikes in depression, loneliness, and suicide among teens. It's a problem that has come to define all our lives, not just those of the youth. “This whole crust of society—people joining trade unions and other kinds of things, lodges and guilds, having hobbies,” Cunningham says, “that layer of society is shrinking. And parallel to our crusade against the ills of social media is, how do we rebuild that sector of society?”Listen to and follow Critics at Large here: http://swap.fm/l/tny-cal-feeddrop Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

Girl dinner. Hot girl walks. Weird girls. Clean girls. Rat girls. Snail girls. Everywhere we look, it seems, a certain kind of girliness is being celebrated – from Beyonce to Barbie to Taylor Swift to TikTok. But what really is girl culture? Jess and Susie revisit a seminal photography book from the early 2000s, Lauren Greenfield's “Girl Culture,” to ask: What does it mean when girlhood is being glorified but individual girls are more miserable than ever?

On this episode Jezzie and Sigi discuss the 2019 documentary, "The Kingmaker" by Lauren Greenfield on the life and influence of Imelda Marcos, the former first lady of the Philippines and wife to Ferdinand Marcos. This fascinating film takes a slow-burn approach to expose Imelda as an unreliable narrator and takes an inside look at her perception of the truth. Jezzie and Sigi were shocked to hear the stories beyond the famous collection of shoes, like the excess riches, infidelity and Caluit Safari Park. Later, Jezzie discusses when dealing with the hard truth, there is a need to accept it to allow us to get to reconciliation.
This week, Lucy and Ben take a trip to gilded age New York and rub shoulders with robber baron-socialites, the Vanderbilts. They examine a battery-powered costume and reflect on the trauma and tantrums of being one of the privileged ‘400' to critique the parallels between America's pioneering plutocrats and today's popularity-seeking pin-ups.

In this episode, Elisabeth and Theresa give you their September cinematic highlights and guide you through what not to miss out on in Amsterdam's movie sphere this October. As supporters of women in front of and behind the camera, they introduce you to three extraordinary films by discussing power relations in Josephine Deckers ‘Shirley’ obsessing over Shannon Murphy’s ‘Babyteeth’ and diving into the persona of Imelda Marcos in Lauren Greenfield’s ‘The kingmaker’.
CinemaCafe l Blind Side (ผู้กำกับ John Lee Hancock, 2009) และ King Maker แด่ลูกผัวและตัวฉันเอง….อีเมลดา มาร์กอส (dir. Lauren Greenfield, 2019)
Imelda Marcos' vast shoe collection (anywhere from 1,200 to 3,000 pairs) became an emblem of the corrupt and lavish regime of her husband, Philippines President Ferdinand Marcos. It's estimated that together they siphoned 5-10 billion dollars of public money between 1965 to 1986. The now 91-year-old former First Lady is the subject of Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Lauren Greenfield's latest documentary: The Kingmaker. Greenfield managed to negotiate extraordinary access to her subject - who remains defiantly remorseless. Greenfield's previous films The Queen of Versailles and Generation Wealth also examined consumerism, gender and obscene wealth. The Kingmaker shows as part of Whanau Marama: New Zealand International Film Festival and is available to watch online until 11pm on Monday 3rd August.

[REBROADCAST FROM NOVEMBER 8, 2019] Filmmaker Lauren Greenfield joins to discuss her new documentary, “The Kingmaker,” which tells the story of the former First Lady of the Philippines, Imelda Marcos.
Vad har vi lärt oss om "hemmakultur" under de två månader som gått sedan den publika kulturen nästan helt stängdes ned? Vi går från streamingtjänsterna till bokhyllorna. För drygt två månader sedan deklarerade WHO att coronaviruset var en pandemi och strax därefter stängde kulturinstitutioner, förbud mot sammankomster med fler än 50 deltagare infördes och social distans blev den starka rekommendationen. Med det följde en strid ström av tips på kultur att ägna sig åt hemmavid, men nu kan det vara dags för en nystart! Istället för att försöka titta på ytterligare en tv-serie, var hittar man filmklassikerna? Och de gratis strömningstjäsnterna? Kulturredaktionens Björn Jansson vet besked och Nina Asarnoj och Katarina Wikars har fyndat i de egna bokhyllorna. KONST OM EXTREM RIKEDOM VAD SÄGER DET I PANDEMITIDER? Vilka är drivkrafterna bakom strävan efter extrem rikedom? Och vad gör längtan efter status och konsumtion med oss? Konstnären Lauren Greenfield har ägnat många år att fotografera extremt rika människor och deras liv. Projektet "Generation Wealth" har resulterat i texter, stillbilder och en dokumentärfilm som väckt mycket uppmärksamhet. En utställning öppnade på Fotografiska i Stockholm tidigare i våras, men stängdes på grund av coronakrisen. Det går dock att se digitala visningar och Karsten Thurfjell har intervjuat en konstnär som ställer frågor om vad som gör livet meningsfullt, på riktigt. LIBANESISK TV UNDER RAMADAN Den muslimska fastemånaden Ramadan är högsäsong för tv-serier i arabvärlden och Al-Haybe, om en familj vid den libanesisk-syriska gränsen, är en av de mest sedda ramadanserierna, och visas nu också på Netflix. Lina Malers har träffat seriens skapare. DAGENS OBS-ESSÄ Den österrikiske poeten Friederike Mayröcker föddes 1924 och har under sitt långa liv författat ett hundratal verk. Författaren Kristofer Folkhammar ger i dina essä några ingångar till hennes avantgardistiska och ibland lite snåriga poesi. Programledare: Karsten Thurfjell Producent: Maria Götselius

A nossa cultura ocidental (estudei especialmente a brasileira e a americana) depende do nosso sentimento de falta, de inadequação e de carência para a economia girar. Não digo isso como forma de julgamento, mas estudo antropológico. “Uma das partes mais brilhantes e trágicas do capitalismo é que ele sempre semeia nossa insegurança, nos faz sentir que não somos suficientes e precisamos comprar esse produto para ser mais bonito ou aceitável. E nossa identidade agora está tão ligada ao que temos que realmente precisamos encontrar uma identidade que está longe do que temos, antes que possamos ser felizes com nós mesmos”, disse Lauren Greenfield, cineasta responsável pelo documentário “Generation Wealth” ou “Geração Riqueza”, disponível na Amazon Prime. Entenda mais sobre o sentimento de falta e como superar essa angústia no episódio de hoje. --ACESSO AO CURSO: https://www.manuelaprudente.com/alem-da-manada --Crédito do áudio--https://filmmusic.io --"Carefree" by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com)
Lauren Greenfield interviews Imelda Marcos in this fascinating new documentary, which takes a look at the life of the former first lady of the Philippines and the controversies surrounding her husband’s dictatorship. Ben Rylan, Karen Krizanovich and Jason Solomons review.
We're welcoming back to the show Director/Photographer Lauren Greenfield to talk about her latest documentary, The Kingmaker. The film tells the story about the infamous Imelda Marcos - the former First Lady of the Philippines and current practicing Filipino politician. In this episode we also feature an interview with one of the subjects of the documentary, Andy Bautista who served as the Philippines’ Chair of the Commission on Elections (2015 - 2017) who's life has been turned upside down because of the politically active Marcos family. We promise that once you see this film, you'll be extra curious about the political climate in the Philippines and how it's mirroring the US political narrative today.

Centered on the indomitable character of Imelda Marcos, THE KINGMAKER examines, with intimate access, the Marcos family’s improbable return to power in the Philippines. THE KINGMAKER explores the disturbing legacy of the Marcos regime and chronicles Imelda’s present-day push to help her son, Bongbong, win the vice presidency. To this end, Imelda confidently rewrites her family’s history of corruption, replacing it with a narrative of a matriarch’s extravagant love for her country. In an age when fake news manipulates elections, Imelda’s comeback story serves as a dark fairy tale. Director Lauren Greenfield (Generation Wealth, The Queen of Versailles,Thin) joins us to talk about a powerful political family, led by a single-minded matriarch, determined to return to re-capture the corrupted glory of her family’s discredited regime.

Nyhetssändning från kulturredaktionen P1, med reportage, nyheter och recensioner.
I 25 år har fotografen Lauren Greenfield följt världens rikaste. Och 47 år tog det för filmen om Aretha Franklins "Amazing Grace" att bli klar - vi har sett den och diskuterar i studion. Det är på konsthallen Louisiana utanför Köpenhamn som Lauren Greenfields utställning om de superrika öppnar i dag. P1 Kulturs reporter David Richter träffade fotografen och filmaren för ett samtal om vad det är som fascinerar med det extrema - och om hennes egen drivkraft. I morgon fredag är det svensk premiär för en film som spelades in för 47 år sedan. Det är två kvällar i New Temple Missionary Baptist Church i Los Angeles där man spelade in det bäst säljande gospelalbumet genom tiderna - både filmen och skivan heter Amazing Grace, artisten Aretha Franklin. P1 Kulturs kritiker Måns Hirschfeldt och Lisa Wall samtalar i studion: hur amazing är filmen egentligen? Och i helgen har det gått 20 år sedan den första Harry Potter-boken, Harry Potter och de vises sten, gavs ut på svenska. Vi får ett reportage av Joakim Silverdal, som besökt den svenska översättaren Lena Fries-Gedin i hennes hem i Härnösand. Dessutom får vi en bokrecension av Annina Rabe som läst Alba Mogensens debutroman Hon den roliga, och kulturredaktionens Katarina Wikars ger oss veckans ord: "överturism". I dagens OBS-essä söker författaren Anneli Jordahl svar på vem Lou Andreas-Salomé - en svårfångad intellektuell influencer från förra sekelskiftet - egentligen var. Producent: Saman Bakhtiari och Felicia Frithiof Programledare: Lisa Wall
Lauren Greenfield examines materialism, celebrity culture, and social status and reflects on the desire to be wealthy at any cost. This visual history of the growing obsession with wealth uses first-person interviews in Los Angeles, Moscow, Dubai, China and around the world to bear witness to the global boom-and-bust economy, and to document its complicated consequences.The Cinema Scribe is a bi-weekly show hosted by Author Brent Marchant. Brent will focus on a specific movie each week and use its context for explaining what some call "law of attraction" and what Brent calls "conscious creation". This is a perfect show for those who enjoy going to the movies and learning how to create our realities.

S1EP7 Lauren Turk: Discusses her life and EP "Bloom" We play Lauren’s new song “See You Again” at end of episode! Lauren Turk: Lauren Turk's debut song and music video "Love Left Over" premiered on The FADER with an appearance from Amandla Stenberg. Lauren is known for her one-woman shows, singing in French, English and Spanish, live looping beats, piano, violin and her voice to soundscape from scratch, as well as her "Stories to Songs" concerts, where she transforms audience stories into songs live. She performs around the world for conferences, festivals and brands such as TEDx, Airbnb, OZY, Sandbox, Hatch, C2, VidCon, La Calaca, Kiss the Ground, USC, Amnesty International, and more. Lauren also composes for film (Bright; Netflix / Will Smith, Mexico Pelagico; Netflix). Calabria, Italy: Calabria, in southwest Italy, occupies the "toe" of the country’s boot-shaped peninsula. It's a sun-baked region of rugged mountains, old-fashioned villages and dramatic coastline, with many popular beaches. Coastal Reggio Calabria, its largest city, is home to the Museo Archeologico Nazionale and its Riace Bronzes, a famous pair of Greek warriors dating back to the 5th century B.C.E. Calabria Song: "Calabria" is a song by Danish DJ/producer Rune Reilly Kölsch. It was originally released in 2003 by Credence, a sub label of Parlophone Records. Istanbul, Turkey:Istanbul (UK: /ˌɪstænˈbʊl/, /-ˈbuːl/ or US: /-stɑːn-/ or /ˈɪstənbʊl/;Turkish: İstanbul [isˈtanbuɫ], historically known as Byzantium and before 1924 as Constantinople, is the most populous city in Turkey and the country's economic, cultural, and historic center. Istanbul is a transcontinental city in Eurasia, straddling the Bosporus strait (which separates Europe and Asia) between the Sea of Marmara and the Black Sea. Its commercial and historical center lies on the European side and about a third of its population lives on the Asian side. The city is the administrative center of the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (coterminous with Istanbul Province), both hosting a population of around 15 million residents. Istanbul is one of the world's most populous cities and ranks as the world's fourth-largest city proper and the largest European city. Istanbul is viewed as a bridge between the East and West. Istanbul not Constantinople: "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)" is a 1953 novelty song, with lyrics by Jimmy Kennedy and music by Nat Simon. Written on the 500th anniversary of the fall of Constantinople to the Ottomans, the lyrics humorously refer to the official 1930 renaming of the city of Constantinople to Istanbul. The song's original release, performed by The Four Lads, was certified as a gold record. Pink’s NY: Hip hotspot for craft cocktails, upscale pub food & live music in an industrial-chic setting. Paris, France: Paris (French pronunciation: [paʁi] is the capital and most populous city of France, with an area of 105 square kilometres (41 square miles) and a population of 2,206,488. Since the 17th century, Paris has been one of Europe's major centres of finance, commerce, fashion, science, and the arts. Sciences Po: The Paris Institute of Political Studies, commonly referred to as Sciences Po, is a prestigious and influential academic institution in the social sciences in France. Buckminster Fuller: Richard Buckminster "Bucky" Fuller (/ˈfʊlər/; July 12, 1895 – July 1, 1983) was an American architect, systems theorist, author, designer, inventor and futurist. Fuller published more than 30 books, coining or popularizing terms such as "Spaceship Earth", "Dymaxion" house/car, ephemeralization, synergetic, and "tensegrity". He also developed numerous inventions, mainly architectural designs, and popularized the widely known geodesic dome. Carbon molecules known as fullerenes were later named by scientists for their structural and mathematical resemblance to geodesic spheres. Fuller was the second World President of Mensa from 1974 to 1983. Natural hair movement: The natural hair movement is a movement which encourages women of African descent to keep their natural afro-textured hair. Originating in the United States during the 2000s, this movement is called mouvement nappy in French-speaking countries. The Way of the Superior Man-David Deida:Though much has changed in society since the first publication of The Way of the Superior Man, men of all ages still “tussle with the challenges of women, work, and sexual desire.” Including an all-new preface by author David Deida, this 20th-anniversary edition of the classic guide to male spirituality offers the next generation the opportunity to cultivate trust in the moment and put forth the best versions of themselves in an ever-changing world. Women's studies:Women's studies is an academic field that draws on feminist and interdisciplinary methods in order to place women’s lives and experiences at the center of study, while examining social and cultural constructs of gender; systems of privilege and oppression; and the relationships between power and gender as they intersect with other identities and social locations such as race, sexual orientation, socio-economic class, and disability. Identity Politics:political positions based on the interests and perspectives of social groups with which people identify. Identity politics includes the ways in which people's politics are shaped by aspects of their identity through loosely[clarification needed] correlated social organizations. Examples include social organizations based on age, religion, social class or caste, culture, dialect, disability, education, ethnicity, language, nationality, sex, gender identity, generation, occupation, profession, race, political party affiliation, sexual orientation, settlement, urban and rural habitation, and veteran status.The term "identity politics" has been in use in various forms since the 1960s or 1970s, but has been applied with, at times, radically different meanings by different populations. Gender Norms:What are gender roles?Gender roles in society means how we’re expected to act, speak, dress, groom, and conduct ourselves based upon our assigned sex. For example, girls and women are generally expected to dress in typically feminine ways and be polite, accommodating, and nurturing. Men are generally expected to be strong, aggressive, and bold. Every society, ethnic group, and culture has gender role expectations, but they can be very different from group to group. They can also change in the same society over time. For example, pink used to be considered a masculine color in the U.S. while blue was considered feminine. Ethnography:(from Greek ἔθνος ethnos "folk, people, nation" and γράφω grapho "I write") is the systematic study of people and cultures. It is designed to explore cultural phenomena where the researcher observes society from the point of view of the subject of the study. An ethnography is a means to represent graphically and in writing the culture of a group. The word can thus be said to have a double meaning, which partly depends on whether it is used as a count noun or uncountable. The resulting field study or a case report reflects the knowledge and the system of meanings in the lives of a cultural group. The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho: Paulo Coelho's masterpiece tells the magical story of Santiago, an Andalusian shepherd boy who yearns to travel in search of a worldly treasure as extravagant as any ever found. Destructive Emotions: A Scientific Dialogue with the Dalai Lama: Imagine sitting with the Dalai Lama in his private meeting room with a small group of world-class scientists and philosophers. The talk is lively and fascinating as these leading minds grapple with age-old questions of compelling contemporary urgency. Daniel Goleman, the internationally bestselling author of Emotional Intelligence, provides the illuminating commentary—and reports on the breakthrough research this historic gathering inspired. The Californians:A soap opera parody featuring Fred Armisen, Bill Hader, Kristen Wiig, and others as wealthy blondes with Valley Girl accents (Valleyspeak) exaggerated almost to the point of incoherence. Each "episode" opens with the Soapnet logo with Bill Hader's voice-over announcement: "The Californians". The title sequence shows the pouring of a glass of white wine and some beach front property, with an acoustic guitar lick and chords that imitate America's "Ventura Highway" on the soundtrack. NYC vs. LA:A few years ago, I received a frantic call from a friend. For months he’d been mulling over whether to stay in New York or give acting a go in Los Angeles. “I love New York,” he said. “But I want to do more TV and film.” Smartphone zombie: A smartphone zombie is a pedestrian who walks slowly and without attention to their surroundings because they are focused upon their smartphone. This is now a significant safety hazard as distracted pedestrians cause accidents. Cities such as Chongqing and Antwerp have introduced special lanes for smartphone users to help direct and manage them. Limbic System: The limbic system is a set of brain structures located on both sides of the thalamus, immediately beneath the cerebrum. It has also been referred to as the paleomammalian cortex. It is not a separate system but a collection of structures from the telencephalon, diencephalon, and mesencephalon. It includes the olfactory bulbs, hippocampus, hypothalamus, amygdala, anterior thalamic nuclei, fornix, columns of fornix, mammillary body, septum pellucidum, habenular commissure, cingulate gyrus, parahippocampal gyrus, entorhinal cortex, and limbic midbrain areas. Sound In Space:You’ve heard it before: In space, no one can hear you scream. That’s because sound doesn’t move through a vacuum, and everyone knows that space is a vacuum. The thing is, that’s not completely true. The Orchard: As a pioneering music, film and TV distribution company and top-ranked video network, The Orchard has local reps in more than 30 global markets. From digital retailers and physical stores to performance rights societies and mobile outlets, our partnerships help amplify your reach and revenue across multiple business verticals. Tardigrade:Tardigrades (/ˈtɑːrdɪˌɡreɪd/; also known colloquially as water bears, or moss piglets) are a phylum of water-dwelling, eight-legged, segmented micro-animals. Cosmo Sheldrake - Tardigrade Song:Cosmo Sheldrake is a 28 year old multi-instrumentalist musician, composer and producer. He released his first single ‘The Moss’ in 2014, which was followed by the ‘Pelicans We’ EP in 2015. This April he will release his debut album ‘The Much Much How How and I’ on Transgressive Records. Much of his work is to do with play, nonsense and the sonorous environment. Sound and Light Differences:Sound you hear, light you see. Sound is a mechanical wave whereas light is an electromagnetic one. Light travels at 300.000.000 m/s meanwhile sound travels at 353 m/s. Light does not need a medium to travel to, sound does. They are both waves but only light is also a particle. Wave Particle Duality of Light:Wave–particle duality is the concept in quantum mechanics that every particle or quantic entity may be partly described in terms not only of particles, but also of waves. It expresses the inability of the classical concepts "particle" or "wave" to fully describe the behavior of quantum-scale objects. As Albert Einstein wrote: “It seems as though we must use sometimes the one theory and sometimes the other, while at times we may use either. We are faced with a new kind of difficulty. We have two contradictory pictures of reality; separately neither of them fully explains the phenomena of light, but together they do.” Using infrared light to help deaf people hear and blind people see:Normally, implants use electrical signals to help people hear and see. However, University of Utah bioengineer Richard Rabbitt has discovered a different way to activate cells. Rabbitt figured out how to use infrared light to send signals to the brain. Instead of using electrical signals, pulses of invisible wavelengths activate nearby nerve cells and communicate with the brain. What the Bleep do We know?: takes viewers on a journey to unlock the secrets of life. Follow Amanda (Academy Award-winner Marlee Matlin), a divorced, middle-aged woman who is thrust into a world where science and spirituality converge. As her entire concept of reality is challenged, yours will be too. See for yourself why this groundbreaking movie became one of the most compelling and talked about films of the last decade. Schrodinger's Cat:is a thought experiment, sometimes described as a paradox, devised by Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger in 1935. It illustrates what he saw as the problem of the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics applied to everyday objects. The scenario presents a cat that may be simultaneously both alive and dead, a state known as a quantum superposition, as a result of being linked to a random subatomic event that may or may not occur. The thought experiment is also often featured in theoretical discussions of the interpretations of quantum mechanics. Schrödinger coined the term Verschränkung (entanglement) in the course of developing the thought experiment. Free will:Free will is the ability to choose between different possible courses of action unimpeded. THE PHYSICS OF FREE WILL: “You’re playing a game of pool. You line up your cue stick behind the cue ball. You practice your stroke…one…two…three… On the fourth stroke, you follow through and the cue stick makes contact. If we could stop time in this moment, we could predict with reasonable certainty the outcome of your shot. The cue stick determines the path of the cue ball. The path of the cue ball determines if and how it will hit the target ball. How it hits the target ball determines the path of both, and whether either will reach a pocket.” Viking Funeral: Norse funerals, or the burial customs of Viking Age North Germanic Norsemen (early medieval Scandinavians), are known both from archaeology and from historical accounts such as the Icelandic sagas, Old Norse poetry, and probably from the account of Ahmad ibn Fadlan. The Book of Secrets: Unlocking the Hidden Dimensions of Your Life: Every life is a book of secrets, ready to be opened. The secret of perfect love is found there, along with the secrets of healing, compassion, faith, and the most elusive one of all: who we really are. We are still mysteries to ourselves, despite the proximity of these answers, and what we most long to know remains lodged deep inside. Gene p53: p53, also known as TP53 or tumor protein (EC :2.7.1.37) is a gene that codes for a protein that regulates the cell cycle and hence functions as a tumor suppression. It is very important for cells in multicellular organisms to suppress cancer. P53 has been described as "the guardian of the genome", referring to its role in conserving stability by preventing genome mutation (Strachan and Read, 1999). The name is due to its molecular mass: it is in the 53 kilodalton fraction of cell proteins. Lauren Turk See you Again Video:Concept by Lauren TurkDirected by James Bloniarz & Billy Ferguson / Lake Effect Films Generation Wealth: “Generation Wealth” is a multi-platform project that Lauren Greenfield has been working on since 2008, and is being released in 2017 as a museum exhibition, a photographic monograph, and a documentary film. Ascribe vs subscribe:Ascribe and subscribe are two words that are very similar in pronunciation and spelling, but have two different meanings. We’ll examine the difference between ascribe and subscribe, their meanings and origin. We’ll also look at a few examples of their use in sentences. Edward Bernais: Edward Louis Bernays (/bərˈneɪz/; German: [bɛɐ̯ˈnaɪs]; November 22, 1891 − March 9, 1995) was an Austrian-American pioneer in the field of public relations and propaganda, referred to in his obituary as "the father of public relations".[2] Bernays was named one of the 100 most influential Americans of the 20th century by Life. He was the subject of a full length biography by Larry Tye called The Father of Spin (1999) and later an award-winning 2002 documentary for the BBC by Adam Curtis called The Century of the Self. More recently, Bernays is noted as the great-uncle of Netflix co-founder, Marc Randolph. Whitney Houston Documentary: An in-depth look at the life and music of Whitney Houston.

Ze groeide op in Los Angeles en zag in haar omgeving al op vroege leeftijd de invloed van roem en rijkdom. Fotograaf Lauren Greenfield documenteerde de afgelopen 25 jaar de rich and famous, en degenen die ernaar hunkeren dat te zijn. In deze eerste aflevering van De Klik praat Annette van Soest met haar over geld, roem, narcisme, verslaving, schoonheidsidealen en het verval van de Amerikaanse droom.
Wouldn’t it be ironic if an ostentatious billionaire who made his fortune pressuring people into buying things they couldn’t afford suddenly couldn’t afford the mortgage he took out on his 90,000 square foot dream home because of the 2008 subprime mortgage crisis? Well, that’s exactly what happens in Lauren Greenfield’s rich slice-of-life documentary, The Queen of Versailles (2012). Ryan gets a lap dance, Matt becomes a teacher, and we both speculate on chad perforation machine sabotage this week on Ex Rated Movies!
It is safe to say, in the Age of Trump and the Kardashians, that America's obsession with wealth grows ever-stronger. Photographer and Documentarian Lauren Greenfield has built a brilliant career both capturing and critiquing the conspicuous consumption of the 1% and wanna-be one percenters. Lauren joins co-hosts Eric Newman and Kate Wolf to discuss her new film, Generation Wealth; which, she explains, contrasts with her previous work because it shows how her super-wealthy subjects had a come-to-Jesus moment in the wake of the spectacular market crash of 2008 and subsequent Great Recession, which seemed, once-and-for-all, to kill the Greed is Good ethic. Generation Wealth then captures how quickly the super rich betrayed Jesus once their balance sheets recovered, even as the average household fell further behind. Also, fittingly, LARB Radio's own Medaya Ocher stops by to recommend 99 Glimpses of Princess Margaret by Craig Brown, a fascinating study of a daughter of (the highest) privilege who remains more worthy of our attention than America's current crop of gluttonous narcissists.

Lauren joins co-hosts Eric Newman and Kate Wolf to discuss her new film, Generation Wealth; which, she explains, contrasts with her previous work because it shows how her super-wealthy subjects had a come-to-Jesus moment in the wake of the spectacular market crash of 2008 and subsequent Great Recession, which seemed, once-and-for-all, to kill the Greed is Good ethic. Generation Wealth then captures how quickly the super rich betrayed Jesus once their balance sheets recovered, even as the average household fell further behind. Also, fittingly, LARB Radio's own Medaya Ocher stops by to recommend 99 Glimpses of Princess Margaret by Craig Brown, a fascinating study of a daughter of (the highest) privilege who remains more worthy of our attention than America's current crop of gluttonous narcissists.
Excess. Greed. Addiction. The American Dream isn’t what it used to be—and Lauren Greenfield’s new doc “Generation Wealth” takes a closer look to find out why.
Inspired by my recent viewing of Lauren Greenfield’s “Generation Wealth”. Money doesn’t buy happiness. Love trumps greed and human connection trumps lifestyle. Listen to my input on the things I believe truly matter.

For the past 25 years acclaimed photographer and filmmaker Lauren Greenfield has travelled the world, documenting with ethnographic precision and an artist’s sensitivity a vast range of cultural movements and moments. Yet, after so much seeking and searching, she realized that much of her work pointed at one uniting phenomenon: wealth culture. With her new film, Generation Wealth, she puts the pieces of her life’s work together for in an incendiary investigation into the pathologies that have created the richest society the world has ever seen. Spanning consumerism, beauty, gender, body commodification, aging and more, Greenfield has created a comprehensive cautionary tale about a culture heading straight for the cliff’s edge. Generation Wealth, simultaneously a deeply personal journey, rigorous historical essay, and raucously entertaining expose, bears witness to the global boom-bust economy, the corrupted American Dream and the human costs of capitalism, narcissism and greed. Emmy-award-winning photographer / filmmaker, Lauren Greenfield’s expansive artistry includes her monographs (Girl Culture, Fast Forward, THIN, Generation Wealth), and documentaries (THIN, kids+money, The Queen of Versailles). The Queen of Versailles won her the 2012 Best Documentary Director Award at Sundance Film Festival. Director Lauren Greenfield joins us to talk about her sweeping film and the damning indictment of a profligate world of depraved indifference, hell-bent on stockpiling pointless possessions.

Penger, skjønnhet og kjendisstatus har blitt en altoppslukende besettelse for alle slags folk - mener dokumentarfotograf Lauren Greenfield. Hun er aktuell med en ny fotoutstilling i Norge. Med Liv Tørres og Hanne Østli Jakobsen.
In her exhibit “Generation Wealth,” Lauren Greenfield, a photographer and documentary filmmaker, chronicles how evolving perceptions of money, status and celebrity have transformed societies around the world. The show, on display at the International Center of Photography in New York City, includes interviews, documentary footage and nearly 200 photographs. A photograph of Russian oligarch Ilona and her daughter Michelle, now on display at the International Center of Photography's "Generation Wealth" exhibit. (Lauren Greenfield/International Center of Photography) To Greenfield, the election of President Trump is closely related to the rise of a populace consumed with materialism and public displays of wealth. "The Values of 'Generation Wealth' give rise to Donald Trump's ascension," said Greenfield. "He expresses a lot of the values and a lot of the themes in the work. The importance of celebrity; coming from reality television; fake it ’till you make it; the love for gold and the aesthetics of luxury; having beauty pageants and beautiful women as an expression of success, that's important to our President.” A photograph of women with Versace handbags at a private opening at the Versace store, now on display at the International Center of Photography's "Generation Wealth" exhibit. (Lauren Greenfield /International Center of Photography) This week on Money Talking, Charlie Herman talks with Greenfield about how the fixation on celebrity and displays of status give insight into American culture (as well as in other countries like Russia and China) and of our politics today.

When Charlie Shrem was growing up in an Orthodox Jewish family in Brooklyn, he learned a lesson about money the hard way. "I got a credit card in the mail [...] the day I turned 18. I had a $6000 credit limit. And I was taking people to Vegas," he told me. It was a lifestyle that got him in ten thousand dollars worth of debt. He repaid that debt in full, and then started looking for a way towards financial independence. He landed on Bitcoin. Charlie was an early adopter of the cryptocurrency, and his gamble paid off. By the time he was 22, he had co-founded a company called BitInstant, which helped its users convert dollars into Bitcoin. It made Charlie rich, but it also landed him in legal trouble. One of Charlie's customers was making a profit reselling Bitcoin purchased on BitInstant on Silk Road, an underground marketplace known for illegal transactions. Charlie knew about it, and ended up being arrested for it. He plead guilty to a reduced charge, and served a year in federal prison. "When you're in prison, it's not like TV where everyone's like, oh, I'm innocent," Charlie told me. "Everyone tells you they're guilty. I'm guilty. Because to say you're innocent minimizes all that hard work you're doing to get out." I talked with Charlie about money, prison, and ultimately leaving his Orthodox community live onstage at the Annenberg Space for Photography in Los Angeles. Our conversation took place in conjunction with an exhibit there called Generation Wealth. It's a series of photographs by Lauren Greenfield about money, status, and the ways we show them—you can learn more about that exhibit and see some of the photographs here. Watch Anna and Charlie Shrem in conversation at the Annenberg Space for Photography.
