It comprises a zine complete with stories, poetry, and art, and an accompanying film on DVD. The film consists of 24 continuous shorts by 24 groups of filmmakers telling the complete story of THE ODYSSEY, Homer’s epic in 24 chapters.<p><br />The story begins at the end of a war, the invasion of Troy by the Greeks, and chronicles the 10-year journey home of one warrior, Odysseus. Having offended Poseidon, the God of the Sea, Odysseus is thwarted at every turn in his voyage, and even passes through the realm of the dead before reaching Ithaka, his kingdom.</p><p><br />The epic hints at what it might mean to travel to wage war, to then try to return to the point of departure, and to have both left behind and carried home chaos. The original impulse for the project came—in part—out of a desire to create a forum for exploring some of these themes.</p><p><br />Then again, each piece of THE ODYSSEY represents each artist's particular interpretation.</p></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15077864-1578721607497294695?l=odysseyzine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Andrea Lawlornoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15077864.post-37257264981632403652007-01-26T14:30:00.000-05:002007-10-17T07:22:37.941-05:00<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: arial;font-size:100%;" >Bernadine Mellis curated the film.<br />Andrea Lawlor edited the book.<br />Samauel Topiary edited the film.<br />Courtney Dailey designed the book. </span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15077864-3725726498163240365?l=odysseyzine.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Andrea Lawlornoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15077864.post-8668952183115166642007-01-26T00:24:00.000-05:002007-10-17T07:22:55.312-05:00<ul style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: arial;"><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Book 1: Miriam Klein Stahl</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Book 2: Lizzy Bonaventura &amp; Anita Chao</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Book 3: Gretchen Hildebran</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Book 4: Bernadine Mellis</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Book 5: Kara Lynch</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Book 6: Davina Semo</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Book 7: Kara Hearn<br /></span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Book 8: Paula Cronan &amp; Laurie Weeks</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Book 9: Rebecca Yaffe &amp; Laura Mays</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Book 10: Rebecca Lee, Bernadine Mellis, Corinna Press</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Book 11: Bernadine Mellis, Mendal Polish, Irit Reinheimer</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Book 12a: Samuael Topiary</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Book 12b: Laska Jimsen &amp; Jason Coyle</span></li><li><span style="font-size:100%;">Book 13: Mendal Polish, A.
