Van Morrison & Bob Dylan - Crazy Love

I remember watching this on television many moons ago. To see two great songwriters together singing in front of the Parthenon. It's more of a Van Morrison vehicle than a Bob Dylan one. And they are singing a Van tune. Bob is just a songsmith enjoying the craft of another. I think it sounds great.

'Dragonfly' by Marlonski QUBIQ Edit




Check out more Marlonski here. What do you make of this video and song? Good, bad? definitely not your type of music, or exactly your type of music? As for QUBIQ. I presume he mixed Marlonski's tune? I think he may be from Phoenix, Arizona. And from the video I guess Marlonski hangs out in Berlin. This whole connection came from the nice people over at CryAndBeFree. As for who the guy is in the video... is it Marlonski, or is it Qubiq? Well, the video is set in Berlin so you would be right to guess it is indeed Marlonski. You can see a photo of him here, with the famous film actress Tilda Swinton... I'm impressed!

Said Taghmaoui in "Linear"

The latest U2 album, No Line on the Horizon (Deluxe Edition on iTunes), includes a movie by Anton Corbijn set to most of the songs on the album and one additional track. Said Taghmaoui plays the lead character, a traffic cop in Paris who burns his police motorbike and then hits the road on a regular motorbike. The camera follows him travelling through France and Spain as he heads south to Cadiz. The movie is called Linear and the photo above is a still from it.

Somalia, Pirates, Tanks, Ukranians and Kenyans

Here's a video courtesy of Rocketboom which shows the end of a hostage situation in Somalian waters. Sounds like the commentary might be Dutch, but it is has subtitles. I don't quite understand the part about the Kenyans owning the tanks and the relevance of their relationship with Southern Sudan.

EU Audiovisual Library

So I took a look at the EU Commission's Audio Visual Services website. There's not as much video on it as I expected, not that I could find in any case. There's stock footage of the Argentinian Stock Exchange, archival footage from early EU conferences featuring lots of white suited men smoking pipes, cigars and cigarettes. The terms and conditions state that the footage "is offered free of charge for EU-related information and education purposes". The video below is a YouTube (or EUTube as the channel is called) promo for the audio visual services provided by the EU Commission.

self publishing...

i remember the days when i'd have an idea and have to use a notebook to scribble a few notes

But with noughts and zeros... the possibilities are endless.

So you can word process a script, tinker with a story. Holly golly. If you'd like to see my latest video ...you know where it's at...
