  • Transcript a Pinewood Dialogue with Ken Jacobs
    TRANSCRIPT A PINEWOOD DIALOGUE WITH KEN JACOBS Ken Jacobs is a master of avant-garde cinema. For more than 50 years he has inventively probed the nature of the moving image. “Ghosts! Cine-recordings of the vivacious doings of persons long dead,” he wrote, fascinated by the power of cinema to coax reality from the flatness of the screen. Finding new ways to delve into filmed images, Jacobs created the Nervous System, a live two-projector system with which he “plays” film, in the spirit of jazz improvisation. During a major month-long retrospective, Jacobs premiered the Nervous System piece Two Wrenching Departures , to mark the deaths of Jack Smith and Bob Fleischner. A Pinewood Dialogue with Ken Jacobs [Performance] following a screening of Two Wrenching Departures (November 12, 1989): KEN JACOBS : There are two projectors that are analytic projectors, meaning that they are capable DAVID SCHWARTZ : We’re going to see the of freezing on a frame and advancing or going premiere of a new Nervous System piece called back one frame at a time, or in a pulse.

Pappy Jr. Master of Arts in Screenwriting In this satirical comedy screenplay, idealistic automotive engineer Clyde Bunter struggles to convince his Uncle Howard, owner of a fourth-rate car company in 1970’s Detroit, to let him build a revolutionary new fuel efficient engine. But Uncle Howard’s sudden coma leaves the company in the hands of Clyde’s incompetent cousin, Max, and the company’s evil CFO, Edgar Wright. Together, these two manage to confound all of Clyde’s efforts, finally forcing him to quit the company and strike out on his own, finding the money to build his very own “car of the future.” Unfortunately, Wright’s continued efforts from afar to sabotage the new car project result in a failed venture and an undercover sting operation which leaves Clyde facing federal charges. Faced with an inept court-appointed legal team, the brilliant young engineer must successfully defend himself against the charges or else face 20 years in prison.

Introduction Electric Junk: Krautrock’s Identity Crisis If there is any musical subculture to which this modern age of online music consumption has been particularly kind, it is certainly the obscure, groundbreaking, and oft misunderstood German pop music phenomenon known as “krautrock”. That krautrock’s appeal to new generations of musicians and fans both in Germany and abroad continues to grow with each passing year is a testament to the implicitly iconoclastic nature of the style; krautrock still sounds odd, eccentric, and even confrontational approximately twenty-five years after the movement is generally considered to have ended.1 In fact, it is difficult nowadays to even page through a recent issue of major periodicals like Rolling Stone or Spin without chancing upon some kind of passing reference to the genre.
