Strung Out Episode 197 THE PHILOSOPHY OF ART WITH DAVID ROCCO FACCHINI. PART TWO.

Send us a text

David Rocco Facchini is an artist's artist.  He's at once a visual artist, making amazing sculptures out of found objects, such as bits of old movie equipment, he's a storyteller, a stop motion movie maker whose most recent film was featured at the Cannes Film Festival, and also an adventurer of sorts.  He recently set out in a Sprinter Van to explore the psyche of America.  The result is a new film, USA2Z, which is in the final stages of production.   Facchini has a fun website with a lot of examples of his film and art and interviews.  Check out www.dellaroccostudios.com.

This episode continues to delve into the complexities regarding community.  As Facchini did his social experiment of word association, he became aware of how people percieve themselves.  That community, government, religion and other social gatherings are somewhat skewed in this era of sound bites, social media, talking points and anger.  People seem desperate to hold onto something as their very sense of self is under attack from variety of sources, all intent on making that self, theirs.  Tune in to a wonderful insight to the state our human condition--now.
