Speaker 1: Werner. Herzog has surfaced in several public arenas over the
Speaker 1: past few days, making clear yet again that age is
Speaker 1: no barrier to artistic restlessness or intellectual curiosity. Most notably,
Speaker 1: Herzog appeared in a much anticipated live virtual event hosted
Speaker 1: by Live Talks Los Angeles on November eleven, where he
Speaker 1: traded observations with Larry Wilmore and discussed his latest book,
Speaker 1: The Future of Truth. This compact exploration tackles art, philosophy,
Speaker 1: and the elusive nature of truth in a post truthed
Speaker 1: era where deep fake videos and relentless fake news have
Speaker 1: unsettled the very idea of reality. Hertzog seemed an excellent form,
Speaker 1: mixing memoir, politics, poetry, and pointed opinions as he urged
Speaker 1: the public to maintain imaginative, tireless commitment to truth seeking.
Speaker 1: According to the event's organizers, Herzog considers truth less as
Speaker 1: a fixed beacon and more as an endless, uncertain journey,
Speaker 1: remarking it is this journey into the unknown, into a
Speaker 1: vast twilett forest that gives our lives meaning and purpose.
Speaker 1: Social media lit up as Herzog's Live Talks LA appearance
Speaker 1: rippled through Instagram with snapshots taken at the Robert Frost
Speaker 1: Auditorium in Culver City on November twelfth, earning dozens of
Speaker 1: likes and comments. Instagram's Art and Film circle is a buzz,
Speaker 1: with visual artist Mihai Greku invoking Herzog's concept of ecstatic
Speaker 1: truth in a recent post about his video exhibition Catastrophologic,
Speaker 1: crediting Herzog's philosophy as central to new explorations in contemporary
Speaker 1: video art. Herzog's fingerprints are all over current streaming trends too.
Speaker 1: Criteria Collection's Instagram account heralded the return of his Nosferat
Speaker 1: to the Vampire nineteen seventy nine to the Criterion Channel
Speaker 1: just days ago, attracting thousands of interactions. Meanwhile, writers at
Speaker 1: The Liberal Patriot and Josh Duggan's Substack both highlighted Herzog's
Speaker 1: fits Caraldo as essential viewing, referencing its haunted production and
Speaker 1: reputation for madness, which continues to entrance and disturb audiences.
Speaker 1: On the business front, Herzog's influence remains tangible. A forthcoming
Speaker 1: screening in public talk of Agiae The Wrath of God
Speaker 1: at the Norton Simon Museum has been announced for January,
Speaker 1: and the continued theatrical release of titles inspired by his
Speaker 1: work is gathering attention, such as Searchlight Pictures Rental Family,
Speaker 1: a drama thematically linked to Herzog's twenty nineteen documentary Family
Speaker 1: Romance LC. Finally, rumors swirl on fan forms and some
Speaker 1: unverified blogs that Herzog may be in the late stages
Speaker 1: of producing another major documentary, potentially tied to African conservation themes,
Speaker 1: a nod to his long time love of outsiders and
Speaker 1: lost worlds. These reports are unconfirmed as of now, but
Speaker 1: have provoked lively speculation about future premieres. Through public appearances,
Speaker 1: festival spotlights, and book events. Herzog once again proves to
Speaker 1: be a singular force whose strange and haunting vision refuses
Speaker 1: to fade even as he charges deeper into the forest
Speaker 1: of the unknown. And that is it for today. Make
