WATCHING JEW, WATCHING ME

2009-11-13T17:39:00.005Z

Channel Four microsite for Watching Jew, Watching Me

Part 4 in series; "Putting The Fun In Fundamental", Channel 4, 2004. In this episode the presenter, Elliott Gerner, tries to get on a list of influential Jews run by the anti-semitic hate site jewwatch.com. Is there a Jewish conspiracy running the media and, if so, how can he join? George Klein, Elvis's childhood friend, tells the story of The King's Jewish roots to explain why he is on the list. Comedian Jackie Mason is also on it, but thinks any publicity for hatemongers, even in a documentary, is a bad idea. His daughter, Sheba, reveals that even she feels anti-semitic after watching Mel Gibson's "The Passion".

Elliott & his director, Andy Lee, set out to find the white supremacist who runs the hate list to ask if their names can be added.

BOLLYWOOD GODDESS

2009-11-13T17:36:00.008Z

Channel Four microsite for Bollywood Goddess

In 1975, Jai Santoshi Maa featured the Hindu goddess Santoshi Maa and became a surprise hit as well as a religious phenomenon. Not only did the film break box-office records, it is still broadcast every Friday on national television.

As this minor goddess became a major icon, worshippers treated cinemas as temples, taking their shoes off at the door, and throwing money and flower petals at the screen. Until the film’s release, Santoshi Maa was not very well known but its spectacular success made her a household name all over India.

Last night's TV

Got an urge to bolt spikes to your skull or stick meat hooks in your knees? Go for it - after all, it's a great conversation starter

Sam Wollaston

The Guardian

Next time I'm at the office water cooler at the same time as someone else, I'm not going to comment on the lateness of spring this year, discuss last night's game, or ask them if they've seen what Debbie from accounts is wearing today. I'm going to remove my clothes, produce a scalpel and invite them to cut me. They may just go ahead and do it, or perhaps they'll want to do it but be concerned about what it will do to me. They might offer to cut themselves instead, or invite me to cut them. It's possible they'll ask me what my mother would think about the situation. Whatever, we'll be sharing our feelings, chewing the fat - it will just be a really ordinary chat.

I know this is a "really ordinary chat" because I've just watched ArtShock: The Human Canvas (Channel 4) and seen Kira O'Reilly. She's a performance artist, and that's exactly what she does - gets naked on stage and invites members of the audience to come and cut her. It gets quite messy, specially towards the end. She explains: "Within those pieces they [her audience] have been able to voice all those conflicting desires of: 'I want to cut you but I don't want to cut you. I might hurt you, but I really want to - I'm really fascinated.' Or: 'Can I cut myself instead?' Or: 'Will you cut me?' Or: 'What does your mother think?' It allows for a really ordinary chat to happen. And that's the work - it's that kind of social interaction."

As I said: perfectly normal, though, to be honest, Kira does look a bit funny about the eyes.

WOLFMAN

2009-11-03T21:24:00.034Z

The life and struggles of influential yet little known poet, musician and addict Peter Wolf. The film documents his journey through addiction, denial and rehabilitation and questions why so many artists look for solace and inspiration in drugs and alcohol.

Like drunks in denial, MPs blow off truth about drugs

Rod Liddle
The Sunday Times

November 1, 2009

A good friend of mine, an almost lifelong heroin user who, more recently, has diversified into crack cocaine and therefore requires a quick blast from an oxygen cylinder before going for a walk, rang me not so long ago with a warning: “Rod, I’m worried about your drinking,” he said. “You’ve really got to look after yourself.” I couldn’t speak for a few moments, out of incredulity and indignation; I consume on average half a bottle of wine per day, which is too much, sure — but to be lectured by a crack-addled skaghead with half a lung and the facial complexion of that character in Munch’s The Scream seemed, to me, pushing it.

He explained further: “In my profession [he’s a rock singer], the drunks check out in their forties and fifties. We smackheads usually hold things together for another 20 years more.” Colloquially — and with a few famous exceptions — he was right.

MUSIC VIDEOS
I began making music videos whilst studying fine art at St Martin's in the late 80's and my first broadcast work was for The Sugarcubes, made for just £200. By the early 90's I had budgets up to £35k but nobody ever matched Bjork as a performer and the simple Super 8 video is still some of my favourite work. It and a selection of others I've directed are in the play list below.
