Armistice

Spawned out of the harbor area (CA)- Armistice has played boat loads of shows all around southern california since their formation in '90 and recorded several recordings to date. Inspite of member changes Armistice has stuck together and still pump out "100% paws in the air punk rock". Armistice currently resides in the harbor area and promises to record an LP very soon. Armistice has become very synonymous with winnie the pooh. It is used in almost all of their logos and is definatly a armistice trademark. Current members are as followed: Fumes= drums, Norman=guitar, Kevin= bass. They are a kick ass band(P-beat legends) and definatly worth checking out: myspace.com/armistice

artistic licence

a distortion or complete ignorance of the facts; a lie

describes the freedoms artists (or writers, film makers, etc) take with the facts in the process of creating; disregarding facts for the sake of the art
When a book is made into a movie and parts are left out or changes are made -- the film makers are using artistic licence

The movie Titanic - the sinking of the Titanic is a real event in history but the characters in the movie are fictional. The writer took a real event and used artistic licence to create a story.

Artistic liberties

A favored term of filmmakers who create films based on or around a historical event/person/era that holds little historical accuracy, usually for the sake of making the film seem more interesting than the reality it's based on, and by extension, possibly drawing in larger crowds and making more money at the box office.
Such extensive artistic liberties were taken with Sofia Coppola's "Marie Antoinette" that it was booed at Cannes.

When George Hickenlooper was questioned as to why his '06 film, "Factory Girl", had been panned so severely by Warhol scholars, he spoke of his artistic liberties taken with the film.

Armistice Day

November 11, formerly observed in the United States in commemoration of the signing of the armistice ending World War I in 1918. Since 1954 it has been incorporated into the observances of Veterans Day.

-- American Heritage Dictionary, 4th Edition
EXAMPLE:

"So this book is a sidewalk strewn with junk, trash which I throw over my shoulders as I travel in time back to November eleventh, nineteen hundred and twenty-two.

"I will come to a time in my backwards trip when November eleventh, accidentally my birthday, was a sacred day called Armistice Day. When I was a boy . . . all the people of all the nations which had fought in the First World War were silent during the eleventh minute of the eleventh hour of Armistice Day, which was the eleventh day of the eleventh month.

"It was during that minute in nineteen hundred and eighteen, that millions upon millions of human beings stopped butchering one another. I have talked to old men who were on battlefields during that minute. They have told me in one way or another that the sudden silence was the voice of God. So we still have among us some men who can remember when God spoke clearly to mankind.

"Armistice Day has become Veterans' Day. Armistice Day was sacred. Veterans' Day is not.

"So I will throw Veterans' Day over my shoulder. Armistice Day I will keep. I don't want to throw away any sacred things.

"What else is sacred? Oh, "Romeo and Juliet", for instance.

"And all music is."

-- From Kurt Vonnegut's 1973 novel "Breakfast of Champions" -- Preface (page 6).
