  • Mick Geyer in 1996: NC: Mr Mick Geyer, My Chief Researcher and Guru, He Is the Man Behind the Scenes
    www.pbsfm.org.au FULL TRANSCRIPT OF DOCUMENTARY #3 First broadcast on PBS-FM Wednesday 12 April 2006, 7-8pm Nick Cave interviewing Mick Geyer in 1996: NC: Mr Mick Geyer, my chief researcher and guru, he is the man behind the scenes. How important is music to you? MG: It seems to be a fundamental spirit of existence in some kind of way. The messages of musicians seem to be as relevant as those of any other form of artistic expression. MUSIC: John Coltrane - Welcome (Kulu Se Mama) LISA PALERMO (presenter): Welcome to 'Mick Geyer: Music Guru'. I'm Lisa Palermo and this is the third of four documentaries paying tribute to Mick, a broadcaster and journalist in the Melbourne music scene in the 1980's and '90's. Mick died in April 2004 of cancer of the spine. He had just turned 51. His interests and activities were centred on his love of music, and as you'll hear from recent interviews and archival material, his influence was widespread, but remained largely outside the public view. In previous programs we heard about the beginnings of his passion for music, and his role at PBS FM, behind the scenes and on the radio. Now we'll explore Mick as a catalyst and friend to many musicians, through conversation and the legendary Geyer tapes, those finely crafted compilations of musical enlightenment and education. In this program we'll hear for the first time from: musicians Dave Graney & Clare Moore, Jex Saarelaht, Hugo Race, Tex Perkins, Warren Ellis, Kim Salmon, Brian Hooper, Charlie Owen, and Penny Ikinger; and from friends Beau Cummin, Mariella del Conte, Stephen Walker and Warwick Brown.

  • 20'000 Days on Earth
    20’000 DAYS ON EARTH Ein Film von Jane Pollard und Iain Forsyth UK, 2013, 95 Minuten Verleih: Xenix Filmdistribution GmbH Tel. 044 296 50 40 Fax 044 296 50 45 [email protected] http://www.xenixfilm.ch Presse: Anna-Katharina Straumann [email protected] www.xenixfilm.ch Start: 06. November 2014 Bilder sind auf www.xenixfilm.ch erhältlich. KURZINHALT Es ist der 20.000ste Tag im Leben von Nick Cave – er beginnt mit einem Weckerklingeln und endet mitten in seiner Seele. Was bedeutet es, sich ununterbrochen im kreativen Prozess zu befinden? Wie füllt man sein Leben fernab der Bühne und was geschieht bei dem Schritt darauf? Und woraus besteht ein Leben gerade rückblickend überhaupt? Auf der Couch eines Therapeuten oder im Auto mit Wegbegleitern wie Kylie Minogue und Blixa Bargeld nähert sich Nick Cave solch essentiellen Fragen. Der Blick in das Innenleben dieser Ikone liefert schliesslich magische und beglückende Einsichten in das menschliche Dasein. Dabei bleibt zu jeder Zeit unklar, ob es sich um gefilmte Realität oder geniale Inszenierung handelt. Das Kinodebüt des Künstlerduos Iain & Jane ist ein sorgfältig durchkomponiertes, Genre- sprengendes Werk, changierend zwischen Doku und Fiktion. Es ist nicht nur ein atemberaubendes Denkmal für den Kultmusiker Nick Cave, sondern auch ein Porträt rastloser Kreativität und eine ganz universelle Poesie des Lebens. Ein cineastisch und emotional inspirierendes Kinoerlebnis. PRESSENOTIZ 20.000 DAYS ON EARTH war in diesem Jahr eines der Besucher- und Kritiker- Highlights auf internationalen Festivals, darunter das Sundance Film Festival (Auszeichnungen für Beste Regie und Besten Schnitt) und die Berlinale. Das Künstlerduo Iain Forsyth & Jane Pollard zaubert in seinem Langfilmdebüt eine Kraft auf die Leinwand, die ihresgleichen sucht.

  • Aesthetica-September2014
    Intimacies of an Icon Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard stage a fictionalised 24 hours in the life of Nick Cave, replacing traditional rockumentary aesthetics with an exploration of how we spend our time on earth. Songwriter, musician, author, screenwriter and composer, Nick Cave, is a true rock star best known for his mesmerising live performances and bizarre yet haunting lyrics. For 20,000 Days on Earth the famously camera-shy Cave collaborates with video artists turned feature film directors, Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard, in a production which tracks a fictional 24 hours in Cave’s real life amongst his family and friends. Cave has described this day as “more real and less real, more true and less true, more interesting and less interesting than my actual day, depending on how you look at it.” In under two hours we follow Cave through his home town of Brighton and his relationships with his family, through writing and rehearsing, performing and recording; through discussions with previous musical partners Kylie Minogue and Blixa Bargeld and actor Ray Winstone; and we reach into his past through sessions with psychoanalyst Darian Leader, and time spent in Cave’s archive – brought over from Australia and re- structured for the film. While the personalities and conversations of 20,000 Days on Earth are genuine, it is not a docu-film; the situations and locations are wholly staged, a decision made by Forsyth and Pollard who affirm that they “never wanted it to look any other way.” Having always explored musicians, music and performance in a factual, documentary-esque manner in their visual art, the directors had long since identified a problem with realism in documentaries.

  • Rebecca Foon Biography 2017
    REBECCA FOON BIOGRAPHY 2017 Cellist and composer Rebecca Foon has been a fixture of the Montréal music community for two decades, since moving to the city from her native Vancouver in the late 1990s. She co-founded the Juno Award- winning contemporary chamber group Esmerine in 2002 and was a core member of the celebrated cult post-punk band Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra from 2001-2008 and the experimental instrumental collective Set Fire To Flames. Foon was also a founding member of the instrumental trios The Mile End Ladies String Auxiliary and Fifths of Seven. Alongside over a dozen albums as a composer and player with the aforementioned projects, Foon has a long list of recording and performing credits as a guest player, and several soundtrack projects under her belt (including the award-winning tar sands documentary H2Oil). Most recently, she has been a member of Colin Stetson’s acclaimed “Sorrow” orchestra (performing Gorecki’s 3rd Symphony) and part of the band for the live documentary performances of filmmakers Sam Green and Brent Green. Saltland is Foon’s ‘solo’ project, the seeds of which were planted with a series of local Montréal performances under her own name in 2010- 2011. As a first album took shape in 2012, Foon wished to give the music its own moniker and identity, and to leave room for the project to take on various members and configurations. Saltland’s 2013 debut record I Thought It Was Us But It Was All Of Us was released to broad critical acclaim and featured a long list of Foon’s friends and past collaborators as guest musicians, including Jamie Thompson (The Unicorns, Islands), Richard Reed Parry and Sarah Neufeld (Arcade Fire), Mishka Stein (Patrick Watson) and Laurel Sprengelmeyer (Little Scream).
