Colleen Ahern—’
Something something video-film- paint something (1) Steve McQueen crossed over in 2008 with Hunger. Gillian Wearing did it in 2010 with her doco/art film Self made, which got neither a major release or a spot in a film festival in Melbourne. On 17 March, at LongPlay in North Fitzroy, Doc(c)o Club returned with a screening of Wearing’s film. A couple of friends-slash-film-making-colleagues have recently started this film club. Modeled on the reading-group-cum-book-club phenomenon, Kim Munro and Amanda Kerley began Doc(c)o Club with the idea of screening seminal, rare and innovative films that could generate discussion and dialogue. While Doc(c)o Club centres around screening and discussion, Amanda and Kim’s other project, Camera Buff Movie Makers, brings together makers interested in the production of short, essayistic films that question the limitations of documentary making. With funding for documentary film-making becoming harder to get, these projects have provided a way for Amanda and Kim to focus attention and help grow divergent ways of thinking about and telling non-fiction stories. Amanda and Kim have both engaged in documentary practice. Kim began her foray into the field with the short musical documentary, The rise of Leatherman (2008), following this with Nerve (2011), a made-for-television (in particular the ABC) documentary about the London-based Australian artist, Paul Knight, and his project to find two strangers interested in having sex upon meeting. Together, Amanda and Kim have worked on the short campaign documentary Save the Hope Street bus (Keep our hope alive), made last year following State Government funding cuts which saw the axing of the shortest bus route in Melbourne.

Salvage Kipp Wessel -fo r Lisa When Walker pulls their car off to the side of the highway and gets out, he just stares for a while at the auto yard. The yard seems to stretch all the way to the San Juan range. Heaped up cars, gutted torsos, abandoned wheel wells, scattered engine parts, and pieces of machinery consume the lot. Acres of quiet land covered in a blanket of automobile remains. Walker takes a light reading of the auto yard with his Nikon. The sun presses hard against the wide lot and the autos smolder red. It’s at sunset. The mountains form a dark blue curving backdrop, giving the wreck yard, momentarily, a sharp outline. Joiene watches him hold the camera, then looks out over the wide expanse of automobile carnage, and at the mountains. She walks from the car to across the road to where there are horses, young mares that run along a fence line.

Chris Nelson Speaking of Neil Young
music Chris Nelson Speaking of Neil Young s a junior in high school I found myself humming along to Neil Young’s “Old Man” and “Heart of Gold” whenever the local classic Arock station decided to take a break from Aerosmith or Boston or AC/ DC. Senior year I’d take the scenic route home from football practice while blaring Harvest Moon in the used Mustang I shared with my older brother, driving past the cornfields just as the setting sun made them glow and feeling nostalgic for the innocence I had yet to lose. First semester of college I was getting high to his 1969 self-titled solo debut, and by spring I waited for rainy days to wallow in my loneliness with the haunting On the Beach, playing it over and over on an old turntable of my father’s that I had restored. In accordance with the natural progression of other Neil faithfuls, it wasn’t until I had exhausted this mostly acoustic, more accessible singer/songwriter side of Neil Young that I was able to graduate to an appreciation of his electric work—the highest and most challenging level a Neil faithful can reach. And it took me even longer to fall in love with it. Only recently have I begun to figure out why: his style of playing, with its wailings and repetitions and clutter and incoherence, is my style of speaking. Like his guitar, I stutter. The phonetic makeup of the word itself seems cruel, stutter, in that its intonation peaks at the difficult and forceful “t” sound—a voiceless alveolar stop produced by blocking airflow in the vocal tract—and therefore prevents sufferers from cleanly vocalizing what’s afflicting them, rather like the blatantly onomatopoeic lisp.

Soundtracks Lesson Plan
SUBJECT: MUSIC / GEOGRAPHY / HISTORY / LANGUAGE / RELIGION / SOCIAL STUDIES GRADE LEVEL: SNR PRIMARY / SEC BY PETER BAXTER @ WWW.SONGSCHOOL.IE Soundtracks Objective To gain a greater understanding and appreciation of songwriting and songs 1. Hand out Soundtrack of our lives sheet - explain concept that music is such an important part of our lives and sometimes songs can remind us of a person, a place or an event. Then ask students to complete these sheets. Ask then for students to volunteer their answers - 1 or 2 from each and ensuring they explain why - doesn’t have to be a detailed answer - they can just say the song and that it is personal or that it is about a friend or family member. They will understand the significance of music and how random selections can effect our lives - It can be someone else’s favourite song that reminds us of them or song that happened to be playing on a radio or at a disco when an event happened. 2. Play some famous songs - i.e. Fields of Athenry - ask who wrote it? when? Where is Athenry? etc 3. Now that students have a grasp of the concept that songs can have an emotional significance that can be attached by a circumstantial event or as a consequence of subjective choice then introduce the idea that some songs can be interpreted many ways, not just through the most obvious. For example - drawing a song - see the lesson plan example outlined below. 4. As a follow on exercise from drawing a song - ask the students to bring in a photo that means something to them - can be a postcard, family snap, newspaper ad etc - ask them then to write some lyrics (and / or music) based on the photo.
