Le temps passe inexorablement

Sinon oui c'est vrai, sans verser forcément dans la nostalgie
c'est aussi un moyen pour moi de me révéler à travers
ce que je fais en faisant des références à ce que j'ai aimé ou ce qui m'a
marqué (ou à ce que j'aime et découvre aussi actuellement ).

Et d'un point de vue technique, s'approprier des classiques (en quelque sorte)
ça permet d'apprendre pas mal de choses au passage et ça, ça me plait

weyrwoman-lessa In reply to JohnFitzSquirrel [2019-02-26 21:05:36 +0000 UTC]

Yes ^^ Similar - or I don't think we'd be that close in Europe - but distinctively different between "L'art de vivre" und "Lebenskunst". If I had to compare our perception of France and the way of life there to an alchemistical element, it'd be air - flowing, fast, everchanging, light. German way of life is more like the opposite, earth - gemütlich, stable, consuetudinary, down-to-earth. I think that's where most of the misunderstandings ultimately result from (if there are any ^^).

JohnFitzSquirrel In reply to paws4thot [2019-02-25 12:22:02 +0000 UTC]

Yes I guess
Because only french people living in the 80's (and watching tv at that time) can see the reference

It's inspired by an old cartoon. If you want to see what it was looking like it's here

Many Thanks !

Nice.


'Coz I thought it was mostly only the British who liked to wax reminiscent of their childhood shows (most of the popular ones being either slightly before or after my time). Meanwhile Irish ones were 'scary' in the 70's.


Always important to remember your audience is international, put links to references in your description so everyone can if not get the joke, at least understand the joke (or at least give them the chance).

I watched the 'old cartoon'


not sure I got it....


'Magic Roundabout' was a big hit in the UK in the seventies, it was originally a french show, but made no sense (at least to the English mind) so they wrote new stories, renamed all the characters and had a voiceover telling the story to a limited soundtrack over the action.


What is it with the french and 'weird' animations? 'Fantastic Planet' blew my mind when I first saw it (it's still a fav) and there were a few french Amiga games out in the late 80's early 90's that were mind-bendingly incomprehensible Kult is the only one I can recall.

We did strange things that's a fact.
Nowadays it's not the same.
Those cartoons (the cocoshaker and magic roundabout) were aired on national channels wich wouldn't be the case today.
Things have changed. Part of the spirit of the 70's and 80's is dead.

That being said, if you asked me why we did this, I just don't know

I quit watching TV nearly a decade back, I haven't even bothered with the likes of netflix etc. yet - I'm patient enough to wait until a boxset for a series I liked the sound of to come out and pick it up, digitise it and watch it (I'll not be able to do that in a few years, the majority are happy enough to pay subs every month for streaming access to everything. DVD, even blueray will become harder and probably more expensive.


In this climate odd, experimentiive stuff is less likely to be made. That's been pretty much true since the glossier production values kicked in at hollywood in the late 70's and pretty much became de rigeur.

JohnFitzSquirrel In reply to GafftheHorse [2019-02-27 22:34:46 +0000 UTC]

And Future ain't bright about that.
No more physical copies of movies or games. All in streaming in the cloud.

And the studio's hunger for benefits push them to give people what they wanna see,
and to do that they have algorythms ans AI scruting social medias.
So they now make movies for mass people.
Experimintive movies don't fill the field, you're right.
I guess they won't be in theater before a looong time.

But let's stay optimist (in a way) they'll return, maybe in a century or just few decades.
Because in a long term, the interactivity will leads to see what we wanna see but indivualy,
every movie would be unique for each viewer.

I hardly have the patience for movies anymore. Much rather a series. Between Stargate and Buffy (there are a few others, I thought Highlander a miss at the time, but picked them up recently from a bargan bin, and a littel better the second watch - although they say hunger is an excellent sauce), the series format can equal a movie in quality storytelling.

I don't expect to see a refresh in the way stories are delivered or presented in my remaining lifetime, like the music industry, the movie industry is hopelessly stuck on the current format of motion pictures of a couple of hours in length, max. I don't see that changing.

We don't have A.I. it's a term marketing have decided upon, it's no more intelligent than Smart devices (which weren't) the machine learning networks are black box pattern recognition, and often reach the right answer for the wrong or spurious reasons, many image recognition algorithms can be fooled by a toaster pic.

Yes that's right about AI etc, but the thing is that as all is perfectible.
People working on this things nowadays will only make progress in this field.
And beyond the fake "scifi/futuristic" aspect, it is true anyway that personal datas
picked up on social medias are a support for marketing strategies.
Even if today it's just to calibrate advertising in regard to our tastes,
we can easily imagine that the process will be extended to other things (if it's not regulated).

And I agree with you about the quality of tv series.

GafftheHorse In reply to JohnFitzSquirrel [2019-03-01 14:09:01 +0000 UTC]

calibrate advertising in regard to our tastes

Mindlessly, despite huge data processing farms...

Have you ever noticed (for example) Amazon 'calibrate' it's advertising on the idiot basis that they 'know' you bought fridge recently?

For the next week or so online, you are bombarded with adverts for fridges....like, there's an item I never have enough of (it's like they think fridges are like socks).

I turned off targeted advertising on my Google profile in a fit of pique over the how annoying it was to be constantly served the same ads for middle aged men.

Honestly, the only thing I noticed was now it was slightly wider of the mark in regards my age or sex. It's not as if I hadn't given them ample opportunity to collect and process the results of my regular daily internet use as I left google signed in for my searches as an experiment.

I was considering changing job recently, and despite entering as much on the profile as poss, the most the recruitment sites could seem to match to was my age???

Well, whether the Intelligence of IT is increasing is debatable, clearly on marketing there's no intelligence at all, natural or artificial.

As to whether it's perfectible, I think the flaws might get a little less glaring, but that'll will only shake confidence when another flaw crops up randomly after mostly working for ages.

I think you're absolutely right about the present situation.
but I was conjecturing on where we are going to.
Because even if it's not a reality, the fact is that companies are dreaming about it and are working hard on it in order to get that real.
I think we are just experimenting the very first steps (and as you said, it is far from being what we think about it)
but even it's false nowadays, it don't mean that it won't be the case in the future. I was speaking about decades or even century (but we'll be gone since long time)
In brief it was a long term vision.
