Why Maya-Mesis?

No, my name isn't Maya, therefore any temptations to see this blog as Maya's messes will not lead anywhere as Maya does not exist.

Maya-Mesis comes from my attempt at the fusion of two major ideas, one that of Maya and illusion from Eastern philosopy, and that of mimesis and imitation of the ideal from Western philosophy.

Having said this, it's nothing more than an interesting name- to me.

A manifest lack of manifestos- do not look to this blog for a theme. Expect everything from film reviews, recipes, dark mutterings of an over-educated, unemployed filmmaker/writer. For this is what it is. After many months of looking for work, this filmmaker/writer of many useless paper degrees, short films and fiction, has decided to externalize her mood-swings by driving her readers crazy instead. How's that!

See you soon. My baby is a day old. I think I'm going to keep it.

Ta ta-

Maya for now.
