                  <text>VHS Activism is based on collections of VHS tapes linked to themes like AIDS and Activism. Over the course of her career, Prof. Alexandra Juhasz collected hundreds of VHS tapes by film artists out of the mainstream of cinema. In some cases, these films are not commercially available. This collection is designed to bring together the digitizations of the tapes themselves with student-driven annotations, as well as records and references in other media, such as reviews, websites, and study guides. This project is part of the OER Pilot Project at Brooklyn College.</text>

                <text>&lt;em&gt;"Writing Desire&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt; is about the rapport between words and body and the creation of desire. The fast-paced video links the writing of romantic desire by means of electronic communication technologies to the increasing disembodiment of sex-uality and commercialized gender relations. The booming bride market emerges as a site where the virtual and the physical exchange of bodies converge. The video examines the different subjectivities produced through this exchange in both the industrial world and in post-socialist and Southeast Asian countries and looks at their respective desires."&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href="https://www.geobodies.org/art-and-videos/writing-desire/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt; &lt;br /&gt;- Artist's Website&lt;/a&gt;</text>
