SEKSUVISION

Seksu Roba had the honor and privilege of appearing on Chicago’s long-running and legendary kids’ dance show, Chic-A-Go-Go! We had such an amazing time. We love Chic-A-Go-Go!! Everyone was so nice and fun and full of positive vibrations! This was taped February 7, 2004.

Erik Deutschman directed this Promo for Los Angeles based Public Radio station KCRW in which Seksu Roba, along with Victor White’s robot ERECTOR, appears briefly. This film screened in Los Angeles area movie theaters and possibly still screens today.

Here is some footage of Seksu Roba performing live, supported by Victor White’s robot ERECTOR, on the Discovery Channel cable television program How to Monsterize Everything, which is a spin-off series from the popular Monster Garage. Original Airdate: Monday October 25, 2004. We were just as confused as the people on the show, and slightly less confused than audiences probably were as we flashed on national basic cable television for 30 seconds or so. Everyone from the show was very kind to us and we appreciated the opportunity even if it made no conceivable sense whatsoever.

Henry Selick is best known for directing The Nightmare Before Christmas and James and the Giant Peach. Here’s his amazing, classic, multi-disciplinary animated short from 1990. Planet Earth needs to grant original visionary artists like Selick more support, freedom, and money to create long and short films. The Residents did the soundtrack. Be sure to read this article about Selick. This is really one of our favorite animated shorts ever!

Here is part 2 of the Doris Wishman (1912 – 2002) interview. Sorry for the delay!

Doris Wishman (1912 – 2002) was an unsung hero of Earthling independent women filmmakers – she also happened to make exploitation movies. Others can explain this underappreciated director and her place in film history better than us, so here is a nice article from Acid Logic, and another from Senses of Cinema. Her most famous films, Deadly Weapons, and Double Agent 73, star the enormous legendary breasts of Chesty Morgan, which made a cameo in the John Waters film, Serial Mom (the movie the kid is pleasuring himself to in his bedroom). Waters is a big fan, which may give you an idea of Wishman’s films. But in any case, whether or not you’re familiar with her work, you will definitely enjoy this rare interview with the late, great Doris Wishman! (please give this some time to start playing as it is relatively long)

I had the great opportunity, pleasure, privelege, and honor, to open for electronic music pioneer, Jean Jacques Perrey, for his first live show in Los Angeles on August 31, 2006. Here is footage of me performing J. S. Bach’s Air on a G-String shot by The Videoape himself, Dougg Pound of TV Sheriff and the Trailbuddies. It’s not my best performance of this piece but I was nervous…

Here is some footage I shot and edited together from Jean Jacques Perrey and Dana Countryman’s live performance in Hollywood, CA at the Knitting Factory on August 31, 2006. For those who don’t know who Jean Jacques Perrey is, your life is incomplete! He is, simply put, one of the fathers of electronic music. Visit his website and get acquainted. We recommend Moog Indigo (from 1968) as a fine starting point – also pick up any Perrey and Kingsley compilation (they are readily available), and he has a brand new CD called The Happy Electropop Music Machine he recorded with Cool and Strange Magazine’s former editor Dana Countryman, which you can purchase at www.coolcds.com.
