There is an amazing film about Generation X currently in production called Xingularity.
The film's web site defines singularity:
a point or region of infinite mass density at which space and time are infintely distorted by gravitational forces and which is held to be the final state of matter falling into a black hole.
In Natural Sciences:
a point in space time in which gravitational forces cause matter to have an infinite density and zero volume.
And the film itself is described by those creating this amazing project:
Xingularity is a wholly independent, raw and unflinching deconstruction of the variable that is Generation X.
An attempt at exploring and redefining aspects of the most unconventional, ill-defined and misunderstood generation in American history.
Much like our lives, it is a 'work in progress'.
Here is the YouTube teaser - I shed a few tears as I watched many important pieces of my Gen X history and the history of the Gen X collective experience unfold...
The film's web site is beautifully done and you'll find a nostalgia link listing many events and issues that Gen X is familiar with, along with many words that describe who we have been or who we are now like: indefinable, angry, rebellious, abandoned, questioning, and anti-establishment.
Manny Merchan, Kerri Merchan, Kendra Kabasele, and all those working on the project are in the process of creating something well-researched, insightful, and undoubtedly profound. I can hardly wait to see where this will take us...
