Discovery Green

On friday this past weekend I had a chance to view the 1925 silent version of Phantom of the Opera on the lawn of the newly built park in downtown Houston named Discovery Green hosted by a local radio station. The old picture show was beautiful glimpse of Paris with a disasterously tragic ending. A breakout cinema of different sorts to turn War and Peace on its head, the Russian art group Voina unveiled a laser green skull and cross bones on the Russian Parliament in Moscow. A literal and figurative coup d'etat at the same time?
