Parasite and Capitalism: What the Film Says About the Pursuit of Wealth
Bong Joon Ho’s masterpiece, Parasite (2019) became one of the few international films to break into the American mainstream.
THE MEASURED EVERLASTING IS 1.334 BILLION YEARS
In Thai Buddhist cosmology, a kalpa is an immeasurable span of time — here imagined as 1.334 billion years, long enough for bodies, memories, and worlds to dissolve. Beginning in hell and expanding toward the edge of the universe, The Measured Everlasting is 1.334 Billion Years moves through Buddhist scripture, Thai gay pornographic print culture, forensic footage, personal memory, AI simulations, and political fable. At its center is the filmmaker’s fear of death: not simply as an ending, but as the collapse of identity, desire, and memory before everything returns to chaos.
