Dampbook: Contemporary Media Vancouver Media Art has been published by Anvil Press.
While my related films (Great Leap Forward series, Now Selling, Golden Age among others) are perhaps more articulate than my essay, I was very pleased to be able to contribute. The book’s website can be found here.
All Your Ears Can Hear: Underground Music
In Victoria BC 1978-1984 is at last available.
It features two CDs (79 tracks!) and a book with
information and profiles of all the featured bands,
including Infamous Scientists and Neos!
My band - Pink Steel - has a track and a profile,
and I also contributed some notes and reminiscing.
The book’s website is found here.
BRIEF ENCOUNTERS
It was a distinct privilege to be involved with Brief Encounters 17, which was held at Performance Works in Vancouver August 31-September 2, 2011. Meeting a such a diverse group of artists and observing their talents unfold over the three nights was an experience to highlight this summer. A review of the show can be seen here . More information about these events can be found at the Tomorrow Collective website here .
