Still from The Shaman-Girl’s Prayer<\/a> (1997), a video piece by Mariko Mori<\/a>. This page<\/a> has pictures of Mori’s futuristic\/cosmic performances, films & environments.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2022 Time Out of Mind<\/em> (1979) was a BBC TV series about science fiction writers, five short films concentrating on Arthur C. Clarke<\/a>, John Brunner<\/a>, Michael Moorcock<\/a>, Anne McCaffrey<\/a> and an sf convention<\/a>. I was only interested in the Moorcock film at the time, not least because it featured a short clip of Hawkwind playing Silver Machine<\/em><\/a>, and inserted scenes from the film of The Final Programme<\/em><\/a> (1973) between the interviews. The Moorcock episode is less about his books than about New Worlds<\/em> magazine and the so-called New Wave of sf in general, so you also see rare footage of M. John Harrison in a Barney Bubbles “Blockhead” T-shirt talking then ascending a limestone cliff, and bits of interviews with Brian Aldiss and Thomas Disch. Ballard isn’t interviewed but is present via a scene from the\u00a0Harley Cokeliss film Crash!<\/em><\/a> (1971) in which Gabrielle Drake slides in and out of a car while someone reads Elements of an Orgasm<\/em> from The Atrocity Exhibition<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u2022 “…there happened to be a book on Ritual Magick that talked about John Dee and summonings and Dr. Faust and all that kind of stuff. So then obviously at that age, too, I read HP Lovecraft and then Michael Moorcock and what they call fantasy literature. Through HP Lovecraft I discovered Arthur Machen, and I think that sort of percolated down inside…” Dylan Carlson<\/a> of Earth talking to Steel for Brains. The Wire<\/a><\/em> has the vinyl-only track from the new Earth album, Primitive And Deadly<\/em><\/a>, and a track from Carlson’s solo album, Gold<\/em>. Related: Artwork by Samantha Muljat<\/a>, designer\/photographer for the new Earth album.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Phantasmaphile<\/a> has details of the next two issues of deluxe occult magazine Abraxas. <\/em>Issue 6 includes a major feature on Leonora Carrington while Luminous Screen<\/em> is a special issue devoted to occult cinema.<\/p>\n

\u2022 More Broadcast: Video<\/a> of a performance at Teatro Comunale di Carpi, March 2010 (part 2 here<\/a>), and “constellators and artifacts” at A Year In The Country<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u2022 “Petition demands return of ‘Penis Satan’ statue to Vancouver.<\/a>” There’s an uncensored photo of the contentious statue here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Literary Alchemy and Graphic Design: Adrian Shaughnessy<\/a> on James Joyce’s writings among graphic designers.<\/p>\n

\u2022\u00a0Frank Pizzoli talks to John Rechy<\/a> about “the gay sensibility”, melding truth and fiction, and his literary legacy.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Mixes of the week: Secret Thirteen Mix 127 by Roberto Crippa<\/a>, and FACT Mix 459 by Craig Leon<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Alan Moore<\/a> has finished the first draft of his million-word novel, Jerusalem<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Crazy pavings: Alex Bellos<\/a> on Craig Kaplan’s parquet deformations.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Noise Not Music<\/a>: “Live recordings, obscure cassettes and more…”<\/p>\n
