...most representative of this are the works done by the “Neensters”—a self-described “still-undefined generation of visual artists,” lead by Greek artists Andreas Angelidakis, Miltos Manetas, and Angelo Plessas. One part avant-garde manifesto, one part reflection on the effect of the Internet on art and architecture, and one part really silly online flash animation, Neen represents a new movement that uses computers to defy traditional ideas about displaying and sharing contemporary art. While you won’t be able...
...Excessive? Probably. And while Krzyzewski's boardroom ease wins him business praise, it makes many fellow college coaches, and the loud legion of Duke basketball haters (check out the "Anti-Duke Manifesto" on the Web.

The young Marlon Brando made Stanley Kowalski a manifesto for sexual menace that defines American acting to this day. The 1951 film version, with Vivien Leigh as Blanche DuBois, restores equilibrium without neutering Brando--a great play revitalized. It's in a topflight pack of six Williams adaptations that includes chats with surviving co-stars, TIME critic Richard Schickel's Kazan documentary and an early, quirky Brando screen test...
THURSDAY Peace, land, bread! Bring your pre-frosh to the Seneca’s annual Red Party at the Roxy. $12 in advance; $15 and a copy of the Communist Manifesto at the door. FRIDAY What’s a great way to lure incoming students to your oh-so-social school? How about no parties on Friday because of the LSATs/MCATs? Instead, check out the Lockdown at Hoffa’s for 7 bucks. Speaking of pre-frosh, legal age in Boston is still 18, cradle-robber. SATURDAY FM still doesn’t know what jollies...
