The Dreams of Nicholas Bruno

A victim of sleep paralysis he wakes in a hypnopompic state, subject to terrifying nightmares, then recreates and photographs them.

Very good.

Arthur Danto: The End of Art

A good article interpreting Arthur Danto's essay "The End of Art".

Link: https://hyperallergic.com/191329/an-illustrated-guide-to-arthur-dantos-the-end-of-art/

And, if you're fussy about sources, the original article (.pdf): https://moodle.ufsc.br/pluginfile.php/1407250/mod_resource/content/1/Danto%20-%20A%20philosophical%20Defense.pdf

Meanwhile, to note, this has been considered before, consider's Hegel's end of art thesis: http://www.rae.com.pt/Danto%20hegel%20end%20art.pdf

Which might be referring to an entirely different idea. 

Meanwhile, I'll leave you these:

Ecclesiastes 1:9

"The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun."

Zombie Hitler riding a T-Rex

I couldn't make this up. Or, no - probably I could, but even I'd dismiss it as too outlandish...they made it into a movie. 

 

What's that? A T-Rex? And on it, could it be, I thought he died in the first movie....

Apparently not. Zombie Hitler Rides a T-Rex. "Sig Heil, Mudder Fickers"

Sadly the trailers seem to be the best parts of the movie, but still, on seeing this I had to laugh.
