What To Do For A Cat That Ate Ribbon

DURA L'EX, SED L'EX

former director of the CSC of the Humane Society of Cagliari, Salvatore Pinna, recently paid homage to the result of some of his work on the Sardinian Sardinian Cinematheque (l Eggi the last speech of Salvatore Pinna) . You may be tempted to think that having been the protagonist of an important part of the history of what he writes Cinematheque Sarda is respectful of the historical truth. In reality this is not so exposed some falsehoods reported by its actions would be as easy as shooting on the Red Cross. Apart from the things that are not true, it is obvious that everything else everyone is entitled to his views, and even Salvatore Pinna has the right to change his mind, to refute the claimed and wrote recently. To better understand - and also to look a bit 'tender and generous understanding the reasons behind the actions of the former - quoted in full the last two pages of Salvatore Pinna essay published in the recent volume published by the FICC and dedicated the figure of Fabio Masala, entitled Fabio Masala. A new life for the public , Which was presented in the lounge of the Film Library of Cagliari in Sardinia in January 2006. These are pages 41 and 42 of a document signed by Salvatore Pinna Salvatore Figus, but in reality everyone knows to be written in full by the first. It is underlined in red where the pace is measured in a more radical ideas that can change quickly. But to each his own: if a fin like to cite as a model and take hermeneutic Francesco Cossiga, we will continue to cite and refer to Fabio Masala, that in matters of cultural policy and film library still has much to teach.


"What an idea out of date: a Film Archive, which collects and provides film and equipment, distributing cards, which form entertainment. Why ever if the liberation of the spectator (and of the Citizen is presumed) may occur by the same "internal dynamics" in Western society those induced by technological advances, and then by mechanical smi auto-expansive market .

Strange people, those who, like Fabio Masala, believed in an old form of distribution that requires a presence, a come and go, a contact between people. He replied, not always find a listening thoughtfully, which was essential an organized social control of production processes, distribution and consumption of culture and education. Why is it falling over on treatment of "pure" logic of the market, which is played in the future audiovisual, their potential for emancipation and development of social creativity . And in the passage by the virtual technique the effectiveness and cultural policy that will decide the fate of democracy. As stated Filippo De Sanctis, a large manufacturer Fabio Masala sector with the Film Library, "The goal of a collective exercise processes information is not technologically you utopian, impractical or socially: it is politically and culturally difficult. "That's it, you might add.

institution that thinks otherwise

repeat the question, there will be a film library as they had dreamed of the founders ? must believe optimistically that there will be. But it is difficult to imagine. As has been said you can not see a political dimension of planning . I can not intangible ginare in which instance or manifestation of current policy, see that investment in the construction of confidence, widespread and participatory democratic life and the economy. There must be still in our accounts, that agent outside of essential stimulus, which was the Humane Society. That way of "thinking differently", by non-governmental institution that has experienced examples and prototypes, and has interacted well with the public body shall not liable to disappear.

power, nothing less than the power

We see movements in the field that does not promise anything Buo not. They seem to signal a kind of infatuation with the words {not enough to say the film library), and isolation from the totality of the cultural politics of education as we discussed, areas of expertise. It would bad if they were made in the name of Fabio Masala. It has been said of the indissoluble link of audiovisual ace associations, training. No time to modern delete them from a cultural policy just as they had imagined born in the future, the great founders. It must also be said of reason that Fabio Masala aversion felt for specialists and sectors.

Vale Fabio Masala what he said, in 1990, on Filippo De Sanctis. He emphasized, with particular reference to the further mo period of professional work of De Sanctis, its not shut himself in the special and then not even in film and television . And picking out the choice of addressing the broader new public "includes" the book (public and libraries), music, museums, theater, poetry (Prato Project). shut themselves up in the special, said Fabio Masala citing Asi mov, "would entail the consequence to achieve a perfect ignorance of all that exists in the world except for a very limited section of nothing. "Another significant phrase, not only the wide cultural interests, but also references to ethical Fabio - still about the Focus - it took from Simon Weil the Notebooks: "If on any subject you know too much things, knowledge turns into ignorance, or knowledge should rise to another".
