Filmmaker’s Portrait of a Filmmaker
Here is Michel Gondry’s portrait of me drawn from my facebook profile picture. I have a deep respect for Gondry’s work, which I first discovered in his music videos. He is a champion of the kind of creative approach to storytelling that really engages audiences by pushing and toying with visual expectations.
I think this was a bold and smart move on Gondry’s part, to personalize the making of his art and to express himself in a classical form that is at the same time a mass-produced product. Using the Internet to power such creative work is precisely what one should hope for from technology. It’s not a way of destroying time-tested forms of creating content, but of refashioning how that content is distributed what can be done with it to connect people. It is brilliant marketing.
Note: I’m not so miffed in the picture, or real life. But, hey, it adds character. It tells more of a story considering there is a couple making out (unbeknownst to me at the time) in the background.

Portrait by Michel Gondry Arrives in the Mail
I will post this in the morning. Kudos to Michel Gondry for sticking to his guns and cranking out an actual work of art. My friend pointed out that this is a bit self-serving to have Gondry draw a picture of me. Well, this was one of the core reasons of the offer as I recall. I would be curious to see a chronological gallery of all of these. More personal gestures in art by mass media artists will serve us better in these times as we are living in an increasingly de-humanized era. What feels personalized may never pass the Turing test, and there may well be an intelligent life behind it. Sleep on that.
