  • About the Filmmakers
    About the Filmmakers Although he is known primarily as an author, Timothy Ferris has been involved in television since age sixteen, when he wrangled seagulls for NBC’s Omnibus and shot film for the Tonight show. While in high school he anchored a live Saturday-morning panel program, Youth Meets Business, which he describes today as “so stultifyingly boring that I believe its only viewers some mornings were our parents,” and played a defense attorney in a youth-oriented courtroom drama “that even our parents gave up watching.” Undaunted, Ferris went on to write and present two PBS specials — The Creation of the Universe and Life Beyond Earth. The two aired back-to-back in 1999, making Ferris one of the few nonfiction filmmakers to have an entire night of prime-time network programming devoted to his work. In addition to producing, writing, and narrating Seeing in the Dark, Ferris shot several of its time-lapse sequences, made field recordings for its soundtrack, and designed its special effects. Ferris is the author of ten books, including Seeing in the Dark, on which the film is based, named by The New York Times as one of the ten best books of the year. He produced the Voyager phonograph record, an artifact of human civilization launched aboard the twin Voyager interstellar spacecraft and now exiting the outer reaches of the solar system, and was among the journalists selected as candidates to fly aboard the space shuttle in 1986. Called “the Press Contact: best popular science writer in the English language” by The Christian Science Monitor and “the best science writer of his generation” by The Washington Gail Rubin Post, Ferris is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of (505) 265-7215 Science.

  • Framed Events
    Catalogue Introduction Brendan Croker and Ian Taylor, one time pupil and teacher, have remained firm friends but this is their first show together, and Brendan’s first substantial show in Leeds. It is perhaps surprising then to see just how complementary their work is. Adopting methods and techniques associated with surrealists, and dadaists, Croker and Taylor don’t so much create un-real dream worlds, as tease out, and tease us with, the real world’s relentless parade of absurdities. And in the process create works of art which are in every sense objets de virtue….. Brendan Croker With help from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Brendan Croker (born Bradford, Yorkshire on August 15, 1953) is a musician from Leeds who has recorded albums under his own name along with his sometime backing band The Five O'Clock Shadows. He was also a member of The Notting Hillbillies, and during the late 1980s, as an auxiliary member of The Mekons and a full-time member of Sally Timms and the Drifting Cowgirls He has recorded with Eric Clapton, Tanita Tikaram, Mark Knopfler, Kevin Coyne, and Chet Atkins, to name but a few. But Brendan also trained as a visual artist, first at Bradford then Sheffield. Starting out his artistic career as ceramacist he has turned his hand to many different media, and would include his musical career as part of that wider artistic endeavour. It was he would argue that his Bradford – and Ian Taylor - had taught him. Recent exhibitions 2008 We Only Look Like Fools , joint show with photographer Jo Clauwaert, Galerie Link , Ghent

  • Vicente Amigo
    Vicente Amigo Tierra Different. Global. Surprising. That's how you can describe Vicente Amigo's new album Tierra, the most innovative and international of his career which will be released in February 2013. The great Flamenco guitar player has opened his music's window to the fresh air of the British producer Guy Fletcher and recorded in London with musicians from Dire Straits, Mark Knopfler and Capercaillie, in order to offer an exceptional and brave album in which Flamenco music blends naturally with other music styles, opening new paths without losing depth, holding tightly to the inspirational Southern Spanish sounds but wrapped in Celtic melodies, linking light and mist, hovering over different styles to create something completely new. “I met Guy in Córdoba last year, at a Mark Knopfler show during the Guitar Festival”, says Vicente Amigo. “We were introduced by the show's promoters, and the initial idea of playing a song with them developed into a new main objective: I wanted to fuse with all those great musicians. My proposal was to embrace all our freedoms: mine, his as a producer, and the musicians' who collaborated. That is far more important, at a certain point, than music itself”. The album Tierra has been produced by Guy Fletcher (Kent, 1960), who was Dire Straits' keyboard player and Mark Knopfler's inseparable collaborator. As a musician he has also worked with Roxy Music, Mick Jagger, Nothing Hillbillies, Randy Newman, Tina Turner, Willie De Ville, Brian Ferry, Aztec Camera ... An emblematic British musician who has placed Vicente Amigo's guitar in a new dimension of lyricism, dream-state, rhythmic beats, tone variety, brightness … An artistic connection going beyond different types of music, styles, languages.

  • John Illsley –
    John Illsley – Live In London (74:13, CD,Absolute /Rough Trade, 2015) Bevor wir im Einzelnen auf das Album eingehen, muss vorausgeschickt werden, dass die Analyse unseres hauseigenen Labors ergeben hat, dass dieses Produkt keine nachweisbaren Spuren von Prog enthält, obwohl die Zutatenliste (Cover) dies durchaus hätte vermuten lassen können. Was also erwartet den Hörer? Der Ex-Dire-Straits-Bassist legt hier ein ordentliches, wenn auch unspektakuläres Live-Album vor, welches ganz in der Tradition seiner ehemaligen Band daher kommt. Exakt so könnten sich die Dire Straits in ihren frühen Tagen in einem kleinen Club angehört haben. Simon Johnson agiert als „Mark Knopfler- Darsteller“ souverän an der Gitarre.Illsley selbst ist stimmlich auch sehr nahe bei seinem alten Buddy. Die Truppe spielt locker zusammen und nebenbei ist der Klang der CD auch ausgezeichnet. Die Tracklist besteht zu einem großen Teil aus Dire Straits- Klassikern und Illsley-Solo-Material. ‚Walk Of Life‘ mag man möglicherweise nicht mehr hören. Dann gilt das Gleiche auch für ‚Money For Nothing‘. DieIllsley -Songs fallen hier zumindest nicht negativ auf. Bis auf ‚Streets Of Heaven‘ und ‚When God Made Time‘ lassen sie aber auch nicht wirklich aufhorchen. Stilistisch könnte man sie in etwa in die frühe Dire Straits-Phase bis „Making Movies“ einordnen. Dazu finden sich mit ‚Another Brick In The Wall‘ und ‚First We Take Manhattan‘ auch zwei Cover-Versionen auf dem Album – von denen Illsley allerdings besser die Finger gelassen hätte. Ersteres kann ich schon im Original nur noch selten genießen und ‚First We Take Manhattan‘ macht im „Sultans Of Swing“-Outfit auch keine glückliche Figur.
