Overcoming gravity, in your films that also means destroying the barriers between fact and fiction. You have often used spoken of ecstatic truth.

That is nothing but a bare concept. But in both feature and documentary films it is possible to have moments when you turn your back on the purely factual. Because fact does not constitute truth per se. Generally facts have nothing lighting them up inside. I always say that truth, a certain deeper layer of truth, can only be reached by stylisation and staging and invention.

Fashion Week way-off-schedule. Reminding myself just how hypnotic the words Louis Vuitton, Bulgari, Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent are.

Miss Groover’s latest works were on show today. On the right is her view once it was all over. I arrived too late to see any of the clothes but I know they’re all black and that’s good with me. Tall enough to catch the make up though.

You can see her current collection in a vid by Joachim Norvik here.

Lucy Ives’ next reading date is FEBRUARY 27th at 8pm and will take place at SPACESPACE (390 Seneca avenue, corner of Seneca and Stanhope).

Today I realized that appart from being a very talented writer, she’s also feeding a pretty entertaining collages blog… worth going through on a Sunday night.
