Are gifs reminders that everything ends? Does a given gif change over time or is it an example of something that remains the same eternally? | |

Were they just talking about George Kuchar? That guy was a riot, wish I'd known him sooner (& that he'd died later). I was introduced to him by his fellow experimental film student from many years earlier, John A. Keel. They were working in NY ca. 1960 when the home 8 mm sound & color equipment was new. Meanwhile in the Midwest, another friend-to-be of mine, David Lindelof, was working on the same thing with John Strathman & Brian Lamb. | |

mcginniwa in wellington, nz:
I showed an experimental film work that was alternating clear leader and black with silence and white noise as presentation at film school. Thought it was by Peter... can't remember. Anyway, people flipped out (in a disrespectful way). I almost quit the class. Weird how minimalism can be so powerful. | |

![]() Did public access channels bite the dust? |
![]() |
![]() Conrad sounds like what they used to call a "Renaissance" person. |
![]() |
![]() @melinda, no they are still around. probably depends on the cable provider. |
![]() |
![]() look into my eyes - static1.squarespace.com... |
![]() |
![]() Fabio! All! |
![]() |
![]() Last I checked NYC still had public access. The ones here in FL are mostly just bulletins of community events. |
![]() |
![]() Those T.O.E.M. shows must've been real "mind-bending" back in those days! |
![]() |
![]() When I saw him he had a large bell like tubes |
![]() |
![]() Stringed instruments are kind of ideal overtone generators in the 1st place - then when you add Electricity & Amplification...As a gittar diddler - I find the fiddle to be filled w/ angels & demons - quite a strange delicate little mystical little power elf...People are still getting up to speed w/ loops & things now... |

![]() I still have my Early Minimalism box, and Four Violins on vinyl... I love it! |

I have a copy of the Table of the Elements CD issue of John Cale's Sun Blindness Music, acquired in 2001 at DGM. It remains sealed. Yet I vividly remember hearing it and deciding to buy it when I visited the store. | |
![]() |
![]() Ah, 95. Albini, o'rourke. Making my day, fabio |
![]() |
![]() I do hear a similarity to some of Cale's fiddling in VU. |
![]() |
![]() Put in mind of Cale's viola on 'We Will Fall' on TheStooges' 1st album - Produced by Cale - as were the 1sts by Patti Smith, Modern Lovers... |

I've lived in the Bay Area for almost 16 years, been to Napa precisely twice, once to a restaurant to meet friends one night, the other time to attend a book talk at the Mondavi winery. Anyway, didn't "Sideways" take place further south on the Central Coast? | |
![]() |
![]() I love Fabio's sigh there, hee hee. |

![]() Dean I think it was further south. |
