Little Miss Punshine - Kate Modern

Bebo have got the rights to the UK spin off of Lonely Girl 15 as reported in TimesOnline. It's called Kate Modern, which will appeal to the atavistic connection that we all have to UK culture, via a tourist's awareness of London visitor attractions. I looked Kate up on Google and she already exists. Which is either a genius bit of Manchurian Candidate style narrative planting, or is a potentially scrappy discussion as to who will claim pre-eminence in this punscape.

Psycho-geo-audio-visual

I read the news that Radio 4 to co-produce feature film about London, and was reminded of a moment in the Everyman cinema in Hampstead where I saw Patrick Keiller's London, in a double bill with his Robinson in Space. Am thinking I should make my own psycho-geographical map of London sometime which could be filled with recursive times like this.

Russell Brand - Strong language, adult content

Went to see Russell Brand at the theatre and he was very good. A talented raconteur, a definition of charismatic. Urbane, articulate and hatefully sexy, he spiels a mixture of Krishna influenced tolerance and acceptance together with an endlessly inventive advocacy of free, sexual love in all its forms. He also spends a lot of time deconstructing the language of tabloid journalism.

Someone has taken the time to upload the whole of the live DVD.  Notable in this clip, a little riff on Henry the Hoover and his reduction of the  theory of  performance to the memorable: "I'm  not  fucking, I am  fuck" .
