Welcome to the Tending Creativity Podcast!
Episode 7: Film, "Good Art", and Power | Solo Episode
This is a solo episode in which I talk/ramble about different things that have been on my mind lately relating to art and life. I don't really make any points nor was I trying to but just wanted to chat. In this episode I talk about:
- How I've been feeling lately-feeling lost and unaccomplished in my mid-twenties
- Post-grad anxiety
- How my mindset has changed from a negative one to more positive/growth oriented
- Resisting hustle culture
- Questioning motivation for creating art-for myself or for external validation
- Thoughts on the film Call Me By Your Name (2017)
- Wanting to see queer film and media as a queer person
- The French new wave aesthetic
- Eric Rohmer
- Claire's Knee (1970)
- Lack of negative critique for art/film of certain aesthetics that have been historically praised
- Persistence of white stories, male gaze, heteronormativity, and romanticisation of relationships with clear imbalance/abuse of power in media and film
- Woody Allen
- What makes good art, the influence of socially/politically powerful groups on what art is seen as good and rewarded
- Instagram/social media
- Trends
- Internet nostalgia
