Company Fuck and Hunting Lodge
A couple of weeks ago Company Fuck made his VJ debut doing the visuals for noise rockers Hunting Lodge at the Ashton Court Festival in Bristol (headlined by Simple Minds, hehe). Hunting Lodge are a great band with equal huge amounts of technical brutality and sloppy stupidity. You should check out their music-

The CF visuals consisted of distorted rainbow test pattens, strobing audio/video feedback, sent to a TV with plastics bags being flapped over the screen by an industrial strength fan. There is some footage-

Haxan - Witchcraft Through the Ages, Dir. Benjamin Christensen 82 mins, 1922, Denmark
Otherfilm at SOOB
Thursday 17th August
SOOB and Otherfilm present
OF THE OCCULT: An offering, of celluloid adventures into witchcraft, ritual and the awaiting inferno.
The Globe Theatre, 220 Brunswick Street, Fortitude Valley
7pm – 9.30pm $7
Part 1: Religious Evils
"Religion is the connection to salvation, yet it also binds us to death and evil"
Haxan - Witchcraft Through the Ages, Dir. Benjamin Christensen 82 mins, 1922, Denmark
This combination of dramatised fiction, documentary footage and animated sequences was based on the records of witchcraft trials in the 15th and 16th centuries. Christensen (who also plays the devil) adopts a sceptical attitude to the occult in a portrayal, in turn grotesque and humorous, of witches' sabbath and black mass, extraction of confessions and contemporary scenes of possession.

A Strange Hysteria
A Strange Hysteria at BIFF
Split screens/split mind, the body splits/frames bleed, double visions of creeping light and darkness. A waking dream; overexposed, drifting... a binary dreamscape.
"a stunning piece of work which makes confident application of all the experiments she's explored in her performance activities to a more "conventionally" projected screenwork." Jim Knox - senses of cinema
Sally Golding (Brisbane, Australia) is a filmmaker, projectionist and audio-visual archivist whose work moves between materialist abstractions and dreamlike narrative forms. Using 16mm technologies and photographic darkroom processes, Sally deconstructs cinematic materials and apparatus, creating unique works realised as performed projection. With colleagues Joel Stern and Danni Zuvela, Sally co-ordinates Otherfilm,... Read more

Audiopollen August 2nd 2006
hello friends and acquaintances,
audiopollen is a weekly radio program exploring experimental, avant-garde, outsider, noise and other forms of music. it broadcasts in brisbane on 4ZZZ 102.1fm on Wednesdays at 11pm and will eventually stream to the world in one way or another...
tonights edition of audiopollen is hosted by joel stern.
We start todays program with a track by Brisbane visual and sound artist Eugene Carchesio which comes from the audio CD produced for his exhibition Everything Takes Time / Time Takes Everything held at the Brisbane IMA (10 June 0 22 July 2006). The exhibition consisted of a wall painting, this soundtrack and 'the space between'. Eugene's music for the exhibition consists of beautifully intricate electro-acoustic compositions focussing almost exclusively on rhythm. This minimalistic, microsonic mode of composition overlaps perfectly with Eugene's geometric post op-art style of abstract painting.

The early pioneers of Australian computer music
Early Australian Computer Music
Shame File Music is past the halfway mark in the reissue of the seminal Australian compilation series NMATAPES, originally released on cassette in the 1980s, and now presented as free downloads complete with cover and liner notes.
NMATAPE6 (1987) focussed on the early work in computer music. One of Australia's pioneers in this field, Warren Burt, presents a piece made up of processed orchestra samples, and Mark Rudolf's "Beautiful But Marred by the Blemish of a Perpetual Dissatisfaction" is an early example of voice performance processed by a computer.
Other names of interest here include David Hirst, Alistair Riddell and Cindy John (Robin Fox's mum!).
NMATAPES 1-6 are available for free download as a complete zip file from Shame File, or for trade on CDR if you haven't got the bandwidth.
- Also new on the Shame File Catalogue:
