SUMMARY:Alan Gorg
DESCRIPTION:For immediate release Contact: Gerry Fialka 310-306-7330 p
 fsuzy@aol.com\n\nTHE UNURBAN is proud to host MESS (Media Ecology Soul
  Salon) at 3301 Pico Blvd, Santa Monica, CA 90404, 310-315-0056, free 
 admission, Start times listed below, http://www.laughtears.com/ Info: 
 310-306-7330 - The public is invited to these engaging interviews by G
 erry Fialka with the following modern thinkers who'll address the meta
 physics of their callings and the nitty-gritty of their crafts.\n\nSat
 , Dec 11. FILMMAKER ALAN GORG (films at 2pm, interview at 3:30pm) Alan
  Gorg, (B.S. 1952 and M.F.A. 1970, U.C.L.A.), teacher/writer/producer/
 director/actor, has written and produced documentary films for the Uni
 versity of California and PBS, and founded theater groups in Hawaii an
 d California. Media Associates published his two autobiographical nove
 llas THE SIXTIES and THE SEVENTIES. \"Alan Gorg is a filmmaker who tru
 ly cares about the uplifting our world. His intention with each projec
 t is to awaken the world to a more compassionate and loving appreciati
 on of each other.\" -Ruby Lee. HOW TO JUMP START YOUR WAR (2010, 20 mi
 nutes, at 2pm) is a satirical look at the four similar deceptive proto
 cols used to start each of the last four big international wars: World
  War Two, Korea, Vietnam, and Iraq. Most people of all political strip
 es do not like being swindled, and this animated and historical video 
 is about giving college and high school classroom exposure to what mig
 ht possibly be the four biggest fakes of the last hundred years. This 
 video is sure to provoke discussion about the causes of war. Please no
 te that among the four rulers primarily responsible for those four big
  wars, there was one fascist, one communist, one Democrat, and one Rep
 ublican. War is an equal opportunity enterprise. PROPHECY & POLLUTION 
 (2010, 80m, at 2:20pm) starts with Part One, AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A HOPI, 
 nearly fifty years ago in a quiet pueblo village where connecting with
  nature has provided a peaceful agricultural life. In Part Two EARTH S
 PIRIT, oil and mining development threaten the indigenous pueblo peopl
 e, who raise protests, citing aboriginal prophecy that incursions into
  Mother Earth will bring disaster. In the third and concluding part TH
 IRD WORLD INVESTMENT SEMINAR, prophecy is fulfilled as corporate capit
 alism does in fact develop oil and mining on lands of indigenous peopl
 es all around the world, and the results are more protests, but also w
 idespread war, disease, and death.\n\n--------------------------------
 ------\n\"Fialka's cool questions are right at the heart of all my wor
 k. By far the best interview I have ever been treated to.\" - Ondi Tim
 oner, only two time Sundance Film Festival Grand Jury winner\n\n\"Fial
 ka's interviews are more gratifying than one could imagine, exploring 
 ideas that don't normally get discussed. With his MESS (Media Ecology 
 Soul Salon) series, a cumulative effect emerges as each progressive in
 terview builds upon and enhances the previous ones. His diligent effor
 ts examine the impulses that motivate people. The secret to good conve
 rsation lies in the questions, and Fialka's questions are an art form.
 \" - William McNally, Activist/Author\n\nGERRY FIALKA, film curator, w
 riter, lecturer, and paramedia-ecologist has conducted interactive wor
 kshops at UCLA, MIT, USC, San Francisco's Yerba Buena Art Center, the

 ew Zealand), and more.\n\nFor more information visit https://hhsalumni
