Sundance Preview
Hello everyone! My name is Jackson Willhoit. I am a current junior at Eckerd College who is majoring in film and minoring in music.
I am extremely excited about the upcoming Sundance Film Festival! Although I want to show love to all of the films being screened, I have found a particular interest in a few films. Some of these films include:
(Features)
As We Speak by J.M. Harper. This film follows a rapper who discusses the recent weaponization of rap lyrics against rap artists in court. As an aspiring rap producer, I work with different artists and produce multiple beats to express my art. However, in recent years, high-profile artists have been incarcerated due to the content of their rap lyrics being used as evidence against them. This has sparked a significant argument within the rap community debating whether or not their own works of art should be used against them in the court of law.
Freaky Tales by Ryan Fleck. I am a huge fan of Pedro Pascal and I love the idea of several stories being interconnected in one film.
FRIDA by Carla Gutiérrez follows the life of Frida Kahlo through Frida’s own words and her personal writings. I was able to learn a lot about Frida through Visual Art and Spanish classes I have taken over the past few years, however, I am intrigued to learn more about her life through her own perspective.
A New Kind of Wilderness by Silje Evensmo Jacobsen follows a family attempting to live in the wilderness when they eventually have to adapt to modern society because of a tragic incident. I am fascinated with nature and I am extremely curious about what the tragic event was in the film that forced such a significant change on this family.
Will & Harper by Josh Greenbaum is about a close friend of Will Ferrell who came out as a transgender woman and the two embark on a road trip of friendship and transition. I have watched Will Ferrell films almost my entire life, which sparks my excitement for this film, and I am curious to learn more about his friendship with Harper.
(Animated Short FIlm Program)
Bug Diner by Phoebe Jane Hart seems to be humorous and the animation looks to be extremely well done through photos on Sundance’s website.
Drago by Daniel Zvereff looks to be a very strong story-oriented animation film and I am eager to learn more about the characters.
Larry by Takeshi Murata focuses on a dog who plays basketball like Shaquille O’Neal while losing its shape. I have a sweet spot for anything basketball related, hence the excitement towards this animation.
27 by Flóra Anna Buda looks like a beautiful animation of a woman who lives in her dreams to escape reality. The story seems really interesting and the photos of the animation look gorgeous.
Baigal Nuur - Lake Baikal by Alisi Telengut follows the creation of Lake Baikal in Siberia through the endangered Buryat language. I am interested in this film because of the vibrant and eye-catching colors of the animation.
(New Frontier/Episodic)
ENO by Gary Hustwit is an experience that follows the life of legendary music producer and solo music artist, Brian Eno, who takes you through his thought process towards his music. I love music and I am curious about how his thought process towards making music can serve as a learning opportunity for someone like me who is currently studying music.
Better Angels: The Gospel According To Tammy Faye by Dana Adam Shapiro looks at the story behind the uprising and downfall of Tammy Faye, also known as, “The First Lady of the Electric Church.” I have always been intrigued with scandal documentaries for some reason, so this film will fuel that interest for me.
If you have made it this far, thank you for reading and stay tuned for more blog posts throughout the month!

Investors are keeping a close eye on the situation in Israel following a surprise attack launched early Saturday by Hamas – the militant group that controls the Gaza Strip, a heavily populated coastal Palestinian territory – because of the possible geopolitical risks it could pose to global financial markets.
The Israel-Hamas conflict is a protracted and deeply rooted dispute between Israel and the Palestinian group Hamas, primarily concentrated in the Gaza Strip.
The conflict revolves around historical, territorial, and ideological differences, resulting in recurrent cycles of violence, ceasefires, and international mediation efforts.
Concerns are emerging among investors regarding the ongoing instability in the region, which may result in a transition toward safer investment options, thereby increasing the demand for assets that provide a safe haven.
Geopolitical events in the Middle East historically have had a significant impact on financial markets, and this latest turmoil is no exception.
As tensions escalate, market participants are becoming increasingly cautious, and this caution is reflected in their behavior as they seek refuge in safe-haven assets.
Saturday saw Hamas gunmen penetrate Israel for the first time, sparking Western outrage, with the United States leading the push in supporting Israel.
Safe-Haven Appeal And Financial Accessibility
This incident may enhance geopolitical anxiety and investment in safe-haven assets like gold and the US dollar, driving up Treasuries demand.
Analysts say these securities have sold off recently as investors seek sanctuary in less risky assets amid global uncertainty.
The US dollar typically strengthens during global unrest as it is seen as a safe haven currency. This is due to its stability, the confidence in the US economy and financial markets, and potential monetary policy actions by the Federal Reserve that can devalue other currencies relative to the dollar, making it more appealing to investors seeking security in times of global turmoil.
Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Spartan Capital Securities, said:
“Anytime there is international turmoil, the US dollar strengthens.”
Cardillo also pointed out that this exemplifies the significance of including gold inside one’s investment portfolio. According to the economist, it serves as an effective safeguard against global instability.
Speculation that US interest rates would remain elevated for a prolonged period of time has prompted market movements in recent weeks. As the US currency has been on a winning streak, bond rates have risen sharply. Stock prices, on the other hand, dropped significantly throughout the third quarter but have leveled off in the last week.
Hamas’ surprise attack in Israel sends shockwaves through global markets, underlining the urgent need for safe-haven assets. Cryptocurrencies emerge as a compelling choice, potentially surpassing traditional havens like gold and the US dollar.

In the face of soaring geopolitical risks, cryptocurrencies shine as the assets to acquire, offering a new frontier in financial safety and security.
Brian Jacobsen, chief economist at Annex Wealth Management, shares his views on the situation in Israel:
“Whether this is a massive market moment or not depends on how long it lasts and whether others are sucked into the conflict.”

How Cryptocurrencies Could Benefit Amidst Middle East Conflict
The ongoing geopolitical conflict in the Middle East, particularly between Israel and Hamas, has inadvertently highlighted several potential positive impacts on cryptocurrencies. Firstly, heightened geopolitical tensions can serve as a catalyst for increased interest in digital assets as a safe-haven investment.
Cryptocurrencies, like Bitcoin, have been increasingly regarded as “digital gold” due to their finite supply and decentralization, making them an attractive option for investors seeking refuge during uncertain times.
As traditional safe-haven assets like gold and the US dollar face challenges, cryptocurrencies could emerge as an alternative store of value.
Secondly, the conflict emphasizes the utility of cryptocurrencies in facilitating cross-border transactions and providing financial accessibility to individuals affected by political turmoil.
In regions with strict capital controls or unstable financial systems, cryptocurrencies can offer a means of preserving wealth and conducting international trade outside the traditional banking system.
This conflict emphasizes the need of borderless and censorship-resistant financial instruments, bolstering cryptocurrencies’ role in financial inclusion and resilience in geopolitical tension zones.
The Middle East conflict indirectly shows how cryptocurrency could boost global investment and financial empowerment in crisis-stricken places.

MIT's Laser-based system achieves noncontact medical ultrasound imaging
Laser-based system achieves noncontact medical ultrasound imaging.
Noncontact Laser Ultrasound offers capabilities comparable to those of MRI and CT but at vastly lower cost, in an automated and portable platform.
Researchers from MIT Lincoln Laboratory and their collaborators at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) Center for Ultrasound Research and Translation (CURT) have developed a new medical imaging device: the Noncontact Laser Ultrasound (NCLUS). This laser-based ultrasound system provides images of interior body features such as organs, fat, muscle, tendons, and blood vessels. The system also measures bone strength and may have the potential to track disease stages over time.
"Our patented skin-safe laser system concept seeks to transform medical ultrasound by overcoming the limitations associated with traditional contact probes," explains principal investigator Robert Haupt, a senior staff member in Lincoln Laboratory's Active Optical Systems Group. Haupt and senior staff member Charles Wynn are co-inventors of the technology, with assistant group leader Matthew Stowe providing technical leadership and oversight of the NCLUS program. Rajan Gurjar is the system integrator lead, with Jamie Shaw, Bert Green, Brian Boitnott (now at Stanford University), and Jake Jacobsen collaborating on optical and mechanical engineering and construction of the system.
Medical ultrasound in practice
If your doctor orders an ultrasound, you can expect a highly trained sonographer to press and manipulate an array of transducers, set in a handheld device, onto your body. As the sonographer pushes the transducer probe across your skin, high-frequency acoustic waves (ultrasound waves) penetrate and propagate through your body tissue, where they "echo" off different tissue structures and features. These echoes manifest from the acoustic impedance, or change in tissue strength (tissue softness or rigidity), from fat, muscle, organs, blood vessels, and bone deep inside the body. The probe receives the returning echoes, which are assembled into representational images of the body's internal features. Specialized processing schemes (synthetic aperture processing) are used to construct the shapes of the tissue features in 2D or 3D, and these constructions are then displayed on a computer monitor in real time.
Using ultrasound, doctors can noninvasively "see" inside the body to image diverse tissues and their geometries. Ultrasound can also measure blood flow pulsing through arteries and veins, and can characterize the mechanical properties (elastography) of tissues and organs. Ultrasound is used routinely to assist doctors in evaluating and diagnosing a variety of health conditions, diseases, and injuries. For example, ultrasound can be used to image the anatomy a developing fetus, detect tumors, and measure the degree of narrowing or leakage in heart valves. Ranging from handheld devices on an iPhone to cart-based systems, ultrasound is highly portable, relatively inexpensive, and widely used in point-of-care and remote-field settings.

Limitations of ultrasound
Though state-of-the-art medical ultrasound systems can resolve tissue features within fractions of a millimeter, the technique has some limitations. Freehand manipulation of the probe by sonographers to obtain the best viewing window into the body interior leads to imaging errors. More specifically, as sonographers apply pressure to the probe by feel, they randomly compress the local tissue where the probe makes contact, causing unpredictable changes in the tissue properties that impact the travel paths of the ultrasound waves. This compression distorts tissue-feature images with some unpredictability, meaning feature shapes are not accurately plotted. In addition, tilting the probe, even slightly, changes the angle plane of the image view — skewing the image and creating uncertainty of where features are positioned in the body.
The image distortion and positional reference uncertainty are significant enough that ultrasound cannot resolve with sufficient confidence, for example, whether a tumor is getting larger or smaller and precisely where the tumor is located in the host tissue. Furthermore, the uncertainty in feature size, shape, and position will vary upon repeat measurement, even for the same sonographer trying to retrace their steps. This uncertainty, termed operator variability, is more severe when different sonographers attempt the same measurement, leading to inter-operator variability. Because of these drawbacks, ultrasound is often restricted from tracking cancerous tumors and other disease states. Instead, methods such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computerized tomography (CT) are mandated to track how diseases progress — even with their vastly higher cost, greater system size and complexity, and imposed radiation risk.
“Variability has been a major limitation of medical ultrasound for decades," says Anthony Samir, associate chair of Imaging Sciences at MGH Radiology and director of CURT. Samir and his MGH CURT colleagues Kai Thomenius and Marko Jakolvejic provide critical medical experience, technical expertise, and guidance on conventional ultrasound devices to the laboratory team and collaborate with them on NCLUS system development.
By fully automating the process for acquiring ultrasound images, NCLUS has the potential to reduce the need for a sonographer and to mitigate operator variability. The laser positioning can be accurately reproduced, thus eliminating variability across repeated measurements. Because the measurement is noncontact, no localized tissue compaction or its related distortion to image features occur. Moreover, similar to MRI and CT, NCLUS provides a fixed-reference-frame capability using skin markers to reproduce and compare repeat scans over time. To support such tracking capabilities, the laboratory team developed software that processes ultrasound images and detects any changes between them. Requiring neither manual pressure nor coupling gels (as required by contact probes), NCLUS is also ideal for patients with painful or sensitive body areas, in fragile states, or at risk of infection.
"NCLUS could image burn or trauma victims, patients with open deep-tissue regions directly during surgery, premature infants requiring intensive medical care, patients with neck and spine injuries, and contagious individuals from standoff distances,"
Haupt says
Light-induced ultrasound waves - noncontact medical ultrasound
NCLUS employs a pulsed laser that transmits optical energy through the air to the skin surface, where the light is rapidly absorbed once in the skin. The optical pulse causes instantaneous localized heating and rapidly deforms the skin through a thermoelastic process that in turn generates ultrasonic waves, acting as an ultrasound source — a phenomenon called photoacoustics.
The optical pulse yields sufficient ultrasound power with frequencies comparable to that of practiced medical ultrasound while causing no sensation on the skin. The team patented the choice of the optical carrier wavelengths, with the photoacoustic process designed to create a consistent ultrasound source, independent of skin color or tissue roughness.
The ultrasound echoes returning from the tissue interior emerge at the skin surface as localized vibrations, which are measured by a highly sensitive, specialized laser Doppler vibrometer.
"With an appropriate laser transmit-and-receive implementation, any exposed tissue surfaces can become viable ultrasound sources and detectors,"
Haupt explains
Advances toward a clinically operational system
In 2019, the team demonstrated that the NCLUS proof-of-concept (GEN-1) system can acquire ultrasound imagery from human subjects using skin-safe lasers — a first in the medical community. However, the time to acquire the image data from the patient subject was long and impractical for clinical practice. In addition, the GEN-1 system image resolution was significantly less than that of state-of-the-art medical ultrasound.
Significant engineering development has since occurred to transition NCLUS GEN-1 to an operational system appropriate for clinical testing. In the clinical NCLUS system, both the laser source and receiver are miniaturized and housed inside an optical head attached to a portable armature. The lasers that pulse and scan are 500 times faster than those of the GEN-1 system, thus reducing the entire image-data acquisition time to less than a minute. Future NCLUS prototypes will involve faster acquisition times of less than one second. The new clinical system also operates at much higher ultrasound frequencies than those of the GEN-1 system, enabling resolution down to 200 microns, which is comparable to the resolution of state-of-the-art medical ultrasound.
The moveable armature enables many degrees of freedom to view the various regions of the body. Inside the optical head are also programmable fast-steering mirrors that automatically position the source and receive laser beams to precisely establish the ultrasound array. A 2D lidar is used to map the patient's skin surface topography; a high-frame-rate short-wave-infrared camera records the laser source and receiver projected locations on the skin, providing the array parameters necessary for constructing ultrasound images. The skin-surface topography mapping and laser-position recordings are registered by using natural skin features such as freckles. In this way, a fixed reference frame is established for performing precise repeat scans over time.
The NCLUS clinical system generates fully automated and registered ultrasound images via synthetic aperture processing. The team demonstrated this system on a gel-based puck synthesized to match the mechanical properties of human tissue (referred to as a phantom) that control ultrasound wave propagation.
Through sponsored programs, the team is now developing NCLUS to support field-forward military applications. These applications include detecting and characterizing life-threatening injuries from internal bleeding in organs; monitoring debilitating musculoskeletal injuries and their healing over time; and providing elastographic imagery of soft tissue and bone of amputee limb regions to accelerate the design and fitting of prosthetic sockets. Civilian applications include imaging in the intensive care unit. With NCLUS, emergency medical technicians, paramedics, and medical staff without specialized sonography training might be able to perform ultrasound imaging outside of a hospital — in a doctor’s office, at home, or in a remote battlefield setting.
"With further development, NCLUS has the potential to be a transformative technology: an automated, portable ultrasound platform with a fixed-reference-frame capability similar to that of MRI and CT,"
Samir says
In the next phase of the NCLUS program, the team will pursue clinical studies using an operational skin-safe laser to evaluate ultrasound images and compare them to those of conventional medical ultrasound. If these studies are successful, the team will seek commercial funding for clinical medical device development, followed by U.S. Food and Drug Administration agency approval.
This work is funded by the U.S. Army Military Operational Medicine Research Program. The human in vivo testing was approved by the MIT Committee on the Use of Humans as Experimental Subjects.

Dow Jones schließt im Plus Börsianer hoffen auf Ende der Inflation
27.05.2022, 22:20 Uhr
Überschreitet die Inflationswelle der USA nun ihren Höhepunkt? Konjunkturdaten stimmen die Anleger jedenfalls optimistisch, weshalb sie zugreifen. Und der neue Film "Top Gun: Maverick" mit Tom Cruise lässt Kurse von Kinobetreibern in die Höhe schießen.
Vor einem langen Wochenende haben die US-Anleger beherzt zu Aktien gegriffen. Positiv aufgenommene Konjunkturdaten nährten die Hoffnung, dass der Höhepunkt der Inflation in den USA überschritten sein könnte. Damit lagen die wichtigsten Indizes auf Kurs, um ihre jeweiligen Serien von Wochenverlusten hinter sich zu lassen. Der Dow Jones gewann 1,76 Prozent auf 33.213 Punkte. Der technologielastige Nasdaq rückte 3,33 Prozent auf 12.131 Punkte vor und der breit gefasste S&P 500 legte 2,47 Prozent auf 4158 Punkte zu.
S&P 500 4.166,01
Am Montag findet in den USA wegen des Feiertags Memorial Day kein Handel statt. Kurz vor Börseneröffnung gab das US-Handelsministerium Konjunkturdaten für April bekannt. Die Konsumausgaben stiegen demnach um 0,9 Prozent zum Vormonat und damit etwas mehr als von Experten erwartet. Gleichzeitig sank ein auch von der US-Notenbank viel beachtetes Maß für die Jahresteuerung (PCE-Kernrate) auf 4,9 Prozent von vormals 5,2 Prozent.
"Es sieht danach aus, dass der Scheitelpunkt der Inflationswelle überschritten ist", sagte Analyst Bastian Hepperle von der Privatbank Hauck Aufhäuser Lampe. Auch der Stratege Brian Jacobsen von Allspring Global Investments sprach von einem "Schritt in die richtige Richtung". Allerdings werde es noch einige Rückgänge bei der Inflation geben müssen, um die Fed zu überzeugen. Sollte sich der Trend bei der Inflation fortsetzen, werde die US-Notenbank jedoch im Laufe des Jahres über einen größeren Spielraum bei den Zinsen verfügen, sagte der Nationwide-Ökonom Dan Hadden.
Dell mit zweistelligem Gewinn
Gap 10,84
Bei den Einzelwerten legte Dell nach einem Quartalsergebnis über Markterwartungen 12,95 Prozent zu. Sowohl die Infrastruktur- als auch die Endkunden-Sparte des PC-Herstellers hätten zu dem beeindruckenden Ergebnis beigetragen, sagte Analyst Krish Sankar vom Vermögensverwalter Cowen. Dagegen wies die Modefirma American Eagle mit minus 6,56 Prozent einen deutlichen Verlust aus. Auch Gap begann den Handel mit einem Kursrückgang, der zeitweilig minus 13,4 Prozent betrug, erholte sich jedoch und konnte schließlich ein Plus von 4,32 Prozent verbuchen.
Auf das lange Wochenende freuten sich auch Kino-Betreiber. Ihre Aktien legten vor dem US-Start des neuen Tom-Cruise-Films "Top Gun: Maverick" deutlich zu: AMC Entertainment stieg 17,99 Prozent, Cinemark 5,97 Prozent, und Imax 8,21 Prozent. Der Chefanalyst Shawn Robbins von BoxOffice Pro erwartete Kartenverkäufe im Volumen von 100 Millionen Dollar in den USA und Kanada. Dies wäre ein Eröffnungsrekord für Cruise. Kritiker haben sich begeistert über die Fortsetzung des Piloten-Dramas gezeigt, die 36 Jahre nach dem Klassiker in die Kinos kommt.
