Synopsis

Lost Media explores the fascinating phenomenon of films and television shows that have vanished from public access, examining why these disappearances occur and their broader cultural significance. The book highlights how factors like accidental destruction, studio negligence, and even deliberate suppression contribute to media loss, impacting our collective memory and understanding of history. For instance, the nitrate film fires of the early 20th century underscore the fragility of early film archives, while copyright disputes can lead to the intentional withholding of content. The book uniquely investigates the impact of lost media on cultural heritage and the efforts to recover and preserve these forgotten pieces of entertainment. It analyzes specific cases, such as missing episodes of Doctor Who or the original cut of The Magnificent Ambersons, to illustrate the consequences of media loss on popular culture. It progresses by first defining lost media, then delving into the causes, examining detailed case studies, and finally discussing recovery and preservation efforts, ultimately emphasizing the importance of safeguarding our shared media history.

    DON'T BECOME A WRITER - Excerpt...

    A calling, an eruption, a phenomenon, an occurrence, a state of flow, an outlet for outburst, an involuntary muscle contortion, a summoning, an awakening, a release, an instinctual truth, a fleeting rarity, an escape from the commotion, a coming and going concussion... Call it what you will; Just don't call yourself a writer when you’re not writing. © 
    Fundamentally, this book isn't "about" anything but submission of a poetry and prose collection that had to be a world level thank you letter to American artist Charles Bukowski whom I had found later in life as a reminder that there was no doing this right. "This" refers to the notion of what it means to be a writer, as the pieces encompassing this collection stem from realization of a rooted "no effort" and invasive take over in the course of my life. 
    Simultaneously, I brutally address what it took to learn that this was ok. 
    Young adults of the art feel stigmatized into forcing creativity scholastically, whilst thinking their expression is restricted, not being trained to listen to their gut or feel strongly by standing on their own experiences. Even if it’s just by momentarily putting the mathematical thinking aside. I'd come across this the hard way from tutoring the subject of English first hand and sympathizing with people putting pressure on themselves in torment when they have "writer's block", so this could very well relate to aspiring writers in exercising patience. The purpose is to console by unpacking the nitty gritty, hard-hitting truths relating to existentialism, internal crises and sporadic nature that artists experience which the world doesn't often get insight into. 
    But ultimately, this is an "I love you" to the grace we can pay as humans with the capability to simply let go when we know it's time.

    Combining evidence and theory, this book questions whether plant life and creatures could all evolve from a few cells, all with their own individual DNA, each with the intelligence of a thousand computers built in. It discusses the Big Bang theory, where our world began, the beauty of creation and all the world's elements. What happened 6,000 years ago that dramatically changed our world? 
    In 1,500 years, humankind developed the ability not only to record history, but went from living in caves to building palaces. Something must have caused this change! Could it be that God created a new Adam and Eve? Are Judaism, Christianity and Islam based on myth or reality? Are we a unique combination of mind, body and spirit? 
    And finally, what is history, and how does it shape our interpretation of the world around us?

    Constant Reader - The New Yorker...

    Dorothy Parker's complete weekly New Yorker column about books and people and the rigors of reviewing. 
     
     
     
    When, in 1927, Dorothy Parker became a book critic for the New Yorker, she was already a legendary wit, a much-quoted member of the Algonquin Round Table, and an arbiter of literary taste. In the year that she spent as a weekly reviewer, under the rupic "Constant Reader," she created what is still the most entertaining book column ever written. Parker's hot takes have lost none of their heat, whether she's taking aim at the evangelist Aimee Semple MacPherson ("She can go on like that for hours. Can, hell—does"), praising Hemingway's latest collection ("He discards detail with magnificent lavishness"), or dissenting from the Tao of Pooh ("And it is that word 'hummy,' my darlings, that marks the first place in The House at Pooh Corner at which Tonstant Weader Fwowed up"). 
     
     
     
    Introduced with characteristic wit and sympathy by Sloane Crosley, Constant Reader gathers the complete weekly New Yorker reviews that Parker published from October 1927 through November 1928, with gimlet-eyed appreciations of the high and low, from Isadora Duncan to Al Smith, Charles Lindbergh to Little Orphan Annie, Mussolini to Emily Post.
