    Hosni Mubarak, the former Egyptian president, has appeared in a Cairo court to face trial on charges of conspiring to kill anti-government protesters and corruption. Incarcerated within a court cage, the former Egyptian president lying on a stretcher denied all the charges before the judge. Alongside him in the dock were his sons Gamal and Alaa Mubarak, and the former interior minister with his six aides. Those present in the court were families of some of the almost 850 Egyptians killed during the uprising in the hope of getting justice in post-revolution Egypt.

  • Joyce Wieland, Cat Food, 1969
    Joyce Wieland
    1969, 13:40
    A cat eats its methodical way through a polymorphous fish. The projector devours the ribbon of film at the same rate, methodically. The lay of Grimnir mentions a wild boar whose magical flesh was nightly devoured by the heroes of Valhalla, and miraculously regenerated next morning in the kitchen. The fish in Wieland's film, and the miraculous flesh of the film itself, are reconstructed on the rewinds to be devoured again. Here is a Dionysian metaphor, old as the West, of immense strength. Once we see that the fish is the protagonist of the action, this metaphor reverberates to incandescence in the mind.––Hollis Frampton

    2011, :30
    “Equally pivotal was the intensely telegenic footage of a boyish marketing executive at Google weeping on television at the height of the protests. Having been held for twelve days, in part for his role as administrator of the Said Facebook page, Wael Ghonim emerged as the Western-friendly face of the protesters. “I am not a hero,” he opined to popular talk-show host Mona el-Shazly; “this is the revolution of the youth of the Internet,” he said, then burst into tears. Ghonim’s melodramatic yet extremely affecting public mourning pushed many middle-class Egyptians, previously on the fence, into Tahrir Square to join the demonstrations. Later, he would be hailed by Barack Obama as “the Google Guy.” A $2.5 million book deal would follow, and there was even talk of a Nobel Prize.”

  • George Kuchar, Hold Me While I'm Naked, 1966
    George Kuchar
    14:24, (1966)
    “Last summer, when it became clear that cancer would inevitably take his life, George Kuchar entered a hospice in San Francisco. He brought his video equipment with him, shooting and editing footage inside what would serve as his final residence. At age sixty-nine, the underground film legend was reportedly the youngest person in the hospice at that moment—appropriate for a guy who began his career as a teenage director and always retained the energy of a gum-snapping adolescent. Even at the end, he could play the kid with the camera.” Read more about George Kuchar in Ed Halter's article in the February 2012 Artforum.
