I KILLED EINSTEIN, GENTLEMEN (15 Sep 2015)

The closing scene of Daisies (1966) by Věra Chytilová shows two girls “who have gone bad”, lying on a table right below the chandelier, which suddenly starts to drop down. We don’t see, if chandelier killed the two feminine pranksters (pioneers of emancipation). But it is what most likely happened, because thereafter we observe war scenes with multiple explosions, bombing, shooting and a ruined city (i.e. the triumph of masculinity).

Few years later (made in 1969, premiere in 1970) Oldřich Lipský comes up with a related film where in the (not too distant) future G-bomb radiation causes sprouting of beards on females’ faces and the leaders of humanity (still mostly males) decide to solve the problem by killing Einstein, sitting in 1911 on a chair just below the chandelier which is coincidentaly supposed to drop down. G-bomb is a weapon radiating “forced emancipation” (exhibited by feminine beards and infertility) which makes Einstein a traitor of masculine humanity — due to being a forefather of the relativist theory in physics (basics of G-bomb structure) and the relativist changes in gender stereotypes (G-bomb radiation). In the opinion of the almighty (masculi)United Nations such a traitor must be killed by a chastising gravitational power of huge phalic chandelier (the same way as heroines in “Daisies” were killed).

“I Killed Einstein, Gentlemen” is also touching an issue of the breastfeeding monopoly of women. Unfortunately this subject matter remains in the film underdeveloped (only as a sketch in embryonic phase) and thus the busty male characters are (most likely) incapable of breastfeeding, not to speak of becoming pregnant and thus substituting the infertile bearded ladies in their life-giving role. (Doesn't matter that when males got busty in the film, females already regained their full fertility potential and lost their beards.)

Noteworthy detail of this unorthodox sci-fi feature from 1969 is also the display of a telescopic “selfie stick” in one of the scenes. It makes a viewer naturally suspicious, if among the cast-n-crew of this existential time machine road trip film was someone (our contemporary) who used the time machine to travel back in 1969 to take part in making of this film.

If one admits that this suspicion might be grounded and considering that (besides a “selfie stick”) in the film is also used a “smart ring”, we can expect that one of the next marketing sessions introducing new iProducts will come up with a “smart ring” as a successor of “smart watches”. And later probably even “smart wedding rings” will flood the international market. These "smart wedding rings" will serve as the (remote control) locks to “smart chastity belts” and will thus pave the way to “smart neofeudalism”, the upcoming social system of smart illiterates.

MAN IN OUTER SPACE (1 Nov 2016)

The Part Played by Automatisation in the Transition from Man to Ape

electronic sounds (composed by Z. Liška) were played on a synthesizer (?) specifically constructed for this movie by J. Svoboda who died in 2013 and currently no one knows how the instrument even looked like (there is nobody to ask anymore and in J. Svoboda's heritage was not found even a picture) / within about 55 yrs oblivion is fully established
