49 Mile Scenic Drive | KQED Truly CA
In 1954, celebrated graphic designer Rex May painted a seagull on a street sign and created a San Francisco icon. But now, a forgery threatens to take its place. Weaving together archival footage, Rex May's illustrious screen prints, and modern design critique, 49 Mile Scenic Drive takes the viewer on a whirlwind journey through the streets of San Francisco and begs the question: does one street sign really matter? With as many twists and turns as Lombard Street, this short film delivers history with humor. It exhibits cinema's power to create change, no matter how small. And it might just tug a heartstring or two.
A film by Bradley Smith and Tyler McPherron.

    Why is this only focused on visual artists? Zines can be great for anyone wanting to spread information. Patterns for fiber artists, recipes for foodies, instructions for DIY's, gardening information, advice, etc. Visual Artists are important and this is a great tool for them but I didn't see any zines about any other topic.

    Yet another reason to fight for nationalized health care - all of these men have so much more to offer the world and yet they are reduced to getting by on nothing. Our government, with all of it's disgusting underhanded dealing, is wasting 80% of this countries potential manpower and talent shoveling money into the belly of the medical, insurance and pharmaceutical industries. Imagine a world where our OWN country gave a flying F about us and we all pulled together. It makes me furious how badly everything is run - ruined by selfishness, greed and pettiness. Excellent storytelling here - thank you.

    It's 4 years later and San Francisco is falling apart. Tent City Trashville. It's ripe for a Zine, call it: Poop & Needles. Explain to people in the future what happened, was your hobby stealing $900 worth of stuff from CVS or was that your new job? Was your role model Fred Flintstone or Scooby Doo? Don't forget to eat Bran Flakes cereal.

    Hale was my friend back at UC in the early '70's. The last time I saw him was back in the late '70's or early '80's when I visited CIL with my friend Walter Wheelon, I remember hale zooming towards us in his power chair with a big smile on his face. He was my friend, not a leader or mentor (though he was those things) but my friend during the best years of my life. So many have left this world from those days, Bob, Walt, and Hale among them, others with whom I have lost touch ... I miss you all and think of you all often, those days with all of you pulled me out of my shell as we learned together how to make our own decisions and live our own lives our way, not as heroes or role models or inspirations, but as human beings.

    The relentless revolt against capitalism. It is no surprise that the movement has deep roots in the East Bay. It was when living in Berkeley that I first encountered "Buy Nothing Day," a proscriptive re-examination of Black Friday and its frenetic campaign to charge into the madness of the Christmas shopping season. Black Friday is an obvious attempt by corporate retail to manipulate an entire population into mindless consumption of unnecessary goods.

    Grew up in West Covina (58' to 72'), before moving to Cambria for high school. Many weekends spent in Laguna with my parents...body surfing, and just hanging out downtown with my buddies. Wonderful memories of The Mill restaurant (sold bottles of their maple syrup with a cinnamon stick inside), an ice cream shop owned by the creator of Popeye, and Victor Hugo's on the cliffs. Thanks for the trip down memory lane Doug ✌😎
