The quartet...

To put this in perspective, the Jack Paar incident took place about the same time that Alfred Hitchcock locked horns with the Hays office over the appearance of a toilet in the film Psycho. A common bathroom fixture almost torpedoed one of the most impactful films in the history of Hollywood.

For a moment, it felt like an Alfred Hitchcock movie. Turns out, our seasonal residents are back. Welcome back, sea lions! 🙌

Bounty hunters just need to grab them in for the quota numbers.

What law there is might come later.

For over a decade, my Foundations of HCI undergrad course has covered “privacy & surveillance” with a (2002) reading about the Panopticon and a once distant warning about how social media sites could create a self-censoring reality. And Ellison is just… owning/celebrating the dystopia.

👁️🎬 Jacobean entrapments come in numerous guises...

I spent the week at the police surveillance convention and let me tell you my biggest observation: The name of the game now is consolidating as much information as humanely possible from surveillance devices, the internet, other governmental data, and literally a million other places. 🧵

It's a Jacobean swirl out there.

Mind you, The White Devil is pretty superb too. Webster certainly knew how to write to the extremes and pretend it was historical when it was really just full on horror.

This is not actually a picture of my face, but I imagine I will resemble it eventually, minus the crown.

#books 5919 Penguin English Library 6 Three Jacobean Tragedies (1986) "The Revenger's Tragedy","The White Devil" & "The Changeling" I used to know a bit about Middleton but it's all gone (except a general air of approval) while Webster can still shock audiences today - and seeded much crime fiction

The devil comes wrapped in robes of white,
espousing scripture that’s not quite right
A silver tongue and smile so bright
Don’t be fooled by the devil’s fight

I am not at all religious. And this is why. It’s convenient cover.

Vera Miles, la ‘rubia de Hitchcock’ que se negó a ser la nueva Grace Kelly (y que antepuso ser madre a protagonizar Vértigo) En la segunda mitad de los años 50, Hitchcock fichó personalmente a Miles con la ambición de llenar el vacío que dejó la entonces nueva esposa de Rainiero de Mónaco, pero ella tenía otras prioridades.

Gracias, @vanityfairspain.bsky.social for writing about my book VERA MILES: The HITCHCOCK Blonde Who Got Away. With all the current conversation about Kim Novak and VERTIGO, it’s a wonderful opportunity to also talk about Miles #Hitchcock #VeraMiles #KimNovak www.revistavanityfair.es/articulos/ve...

What Foucault’s Panopticon Reveals About Hidden Power | TheCollector Foucault’s Panopticon metaphor explains how surveillance influences behavior and power dynamics in modern society.

' #Surveillance does not only involve observing someone. For Foucault, it also has an active role to play when individuals regulate their own behavior because they fear being caught doing otherwise.'

Back at the @criterion.bsky.social Channel tonight, this time bouncing over to the Surveillance Cinema collection to check out Brian De Palma's Body Double. It's one I've always wanted to see but never got around to. I love his riffs on Hitchcock, this time doing his rendition of Rear Window.
