wanted to do some retro fitness routine and found a video on the internet archive with this lovely woman. i was quite surprised by it for a few reasons: 1) there were women of all shapes in the video 2) she really focused on the idea of intentional movement and didn’t just throw herself around to do aerobic moves i looked her up afterwards and found out that she sadly has been in a destitute situation for some time. luckily jamie lee curtis rediscovered her and there’s an upcoming documentary about her life coming out soon, on top of a memoir she published last year. anyways imma find more videos and i hope she gets a more comfortable life ⭐️

Fitness Povero

Nina (Bar Italia) made fitness videos for a Project called Fitness Povero. It's just her doing workouts, in her bedroom with the most oneiric ambiant music that she composed herself. Wholesome content.

Preventing lost media

I’ve had this youtube playlist for ages that I call my “internet archive” and it’s full of videos that I find interesting but also feel are culturally significant. They’re mostly live performances with a mix of odd ball clips that I liked but also really special stuff I think won‘t be there forever. Here is a list of my favourites 1. Camcorder footage of two guys driving around london in the late 90s while listening to the radio 2. RuPaul before he was the Queen of Drag, hanging round a corner shop in New York 3. A documentary filmmaker documenting various African American accents and dialects across the states. 4. A short doc called “Dirty Girls” about a group of teenager grunge girlies who are reacting to the news of Kurt Cobain’s death and discussing how they all stopped washing their hair to honour him hence the title. 5. Marsha P Johnson reading her poem “You gotta have soul” Anyway, this is me recommending to you to begin saving videos that intrigue you because contrary to popular belief the internet isn’t actually forever.
