It will manifest in the next few weeks for personal reasons as we hit three particular milestones that matter greatly in the annals of the Secret MICRO-FILM Headquarters<\/strong>. Two will come up in April, while the third has already passed but there\u2019s no time like right now to make a mention. It may be a million-to-one odds that C-U Blogfidential<\/span><\/strong> continues after more than 14 years and a damn miracle that I keep at it. Yet, since our scene is always ripe with creation and I\u2019m technically confined to this house on the edge of an American small town where I\u2019ve been staying in recent months, I have no reason to not CUBlog<\/span><\/strong>. Please feel free to sift through our recent articles and play catch-up on the topics that have recently caught our attention. And then, onward.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n CONFIDENTIAL ALMANAC | Dates in Film Culture History<\/strong><\/p>\n 14 Years Ago<\/strong> \u2026 Saturday, February 25, 2006:<\/em> Opteryx Press<\/strong> of Champaign<\/strong> launches C-U Blogfidential<\/span><\/strong>, an Internet adaptation of the \u201cC-U Confidential<\/strong>\u201d section from their flagship journal MICRO-FILM<\/strong>. In the first entry<\/a><\/span>, dated 8:57 p.m.<\/strong>, editor Jason Pankoke<\/strong> describes an intention of \u201c[making] a minor splash creating a community history through cinema, one that we can definitely call our own,\u201d with the forum as its potential epicenter. CUBlog<\/strong><\/span> has published local film-related content every single month since then.
