LAND, SEA, SKY: ALL WILL KILL YOU

Land, Sea, Sky: All will kill you

posted by machine: Karma Nabulsi , The Guardian, January 3rd Last Saturday, the first day of massive air strikes on Gaza, I finally get through to my old friend Mohammed. We speak for a few moments, he reassures me he is OK, he asks about my now-delayed trip to Gaza, and suddenly I ask: "What is that noise?" It is a sort of distant keening, like the roar of approaching traffic, or a series of waves hitting a rocky shore. "I am at the cemetery, Karma", he says, "I am burying my family." He now sounds exhausted. He repeats, over and over again in his steady, tired voice as if it were a prayer:... > expand / read more...

HAPPY NEW YEAR FOR SOME..

HAPPY NEW YEAR FOR SOME..

POSTED BY ROBERT: as the israeli bombardment of gaza continues, donations to unwra-oxfam and to hoping are more vital than ever. it's seems a long time since any wise men entered bethlehem. if memory serves-the ceasefire was broken on the eve of the US elections by the controlling power in the region. pray to your chosen god that the bloodshed is not politically motivated..

NYC

NYC

Gomorrah is without doubt the best movie I have been involved with. When the director Matteo Garrone first showed me the film, I was blown away and I told him that no score was needed - basically talking myself out of a job. After trying a few scenes with score, we agreed. I then wrote the exit music, with assistance from Euan and Neil at 1.6. I spent last weekend in New York, where Martin Scorsese presented the movie in a small cinema on 6th ave.

CARROT CIRCUS

how to spend 500 million pounds and bring the city to its knees- a star studded night of portable TV celebs, shopping debt repayment collectors and total auto gridlock. carrot circus is an amazing piece of work that ingeniously manages to capture that gripping 80's shopping mall look of mid America slash the midlands,just what we need to compliment the mall and the giant Barrett business towers down temple way.The galleries now feel like a taxpayers bargain at the price and look how well they have performed compared to the wasted cash drizzled into welfare health and education. > expand / read more...
