Through the Prism

After passing through the prism, each refraction contains some pure essence of the light, but only an incomplete part. We will always experience some aspect of reality, of the Truth, but only from our perspectives as they are colored by who and where we are. Others will know a different color and none will see the whole, complete light. These are my musings from my particular refraction.

So maybe a little earnest and cheesy, but I was in the right mood when I saw this and found it charming. I like the unusual perspective emphasis of the found faces.



But for those who do find it earnest and cheesy, a parody.



And now to completely steal from a friend, yet two more takes on Twilight. First, the short one that's all about a brilliantly insightful ending.



Finally, Twilight filtered through Buffy.



The creator of the last one says:

In this re-imagined narrative, Edward Cullen from the Twilight Series meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It's an example of transformative storytelling serving as a pro-feminist visual critique of Edward's character and generally creepy behavior. Seen through Buffy's eyes, some of the more sexist gender roles and patriarchal Hollywood themes embedded in the Twilight saga are exposed - in hilarious ways. Ultimately this remix is about more than a decisive showdown between the slayer and the sparkly vampire. It also doubles as a metaphor for the ongoing battle between two opposing visions of gender roles in the 21ist century.
