The Rat Tree - Farmboy Documentary
** News Flash! ** Farmboy has WON an Emmy award for Musical Composition... Also... Farmboy DVDs and Soundtrack Albums can now be ordered at www.farmboymovie.com. Rats in trees???!!!! Climbing train trussels? These are just two of the many antics depicted in this video clip. "The Rat Tree" is a segment from the upcoming Jonamac Productions documentary "Farmboy". This film will have a broad release on public television and will be available on DVD in 2007. For more information on Farmboy please visit www.FarmboyMovie.com. Movie Synopsis: John Babcock was born on August 10, 1922. He spent his childhood on his family's farm known as Sunnygables during the Great Depression. John's father, Howard Edward Babcock, used Sunnygables as his testing ground in developing many revolutionary farming techniques, now taken for granted. Elevated milking parlors, home freezers, rubber automobile tires on farm tractors and implements, and many more innovations were introduced to American farmers at Sunnygables. H.E. Babcock was the first professor of farm marketing (1921) and later Chairman of the Board (1940s) at Cornell University. He was a key figure in the development of today's food nutrition standards. H.E. was also well known for his column, "Kernels, Screenings and Chaff" in the farm magazine American Agriculturist. The story of Sunnygables and the Babcock family is important for a full understanding of American cultural development in the 20th century. Every American dinner table experienced the changes effected by this farm. The principles and programs developed by H.E. Babcock helped save the American Farm back then and are now saving farms in other lands. In recent times, the future of the family farm worldwide is in serious jeopardy. Production costs far outweigh low selling prices. This trend, coupled with the fact that, in developing lands, most farmers are unable to afford necessary agricultural technology threaten the continued existence of family farms. In urban United States, most school-aged children have very little idea where their food comes from. When questioned, many youths claim that the food they eat comes from the back room of the supermarket. Those who have some familiarity with agriculture assume that there will always be an abundant supply of food available to the American public. It is hoped that this documentary will create an awareness of these issues and further H.E. Babcock's mission of education and innovation in the field of agriculture. Farmboy, a film based on the writings of John Babcock, discusses four intertwined themes: 1. John's experience as a farmboy during the Great Depression when agriculture was making the leap from horse to gas-power and mechanization. As a boy, John observed all of the changes taking place around him. He took an active role in the daily operations of the farm. During his idle time, he would play and explore. His experiences are both entertaining and enlightening. 2. The evolution of northeast agriculture and farm co-ops; 3. The career of H.E. Babcock in agriculture, nutrition and higher education; and 4. The perpetuation of H.E. Babcock's programs and programs in the United States and on a global level today. Farmboy is narrated by interviews conducted with John Babcock, Per Pinstrup-Andersen (H.E. Babcock Professor, Cornell University), Joe Lockwood (GLF/AGWAY Historian), Gould Colman (Cornell University Archivist), John Marcham (Journalist), and many more. The documentary, conceived by Jake Gorst (Leisurama, 2005) contains vintage photography, archival films and re-enactments of John's childhood experiences. Lastly: No animals or humans were harmed in the production of this film!
Terayama Shuji
Shuji Terayama (寺山 修司, Terayama Shūji?, December 10, 1935—May 4, 1983) was an avant-garde Japanese poet, dramatist, writer, director, and photographer. He was one of the most productive and provocative creative artists from Japan. He was born December 10, 1935, the only son Terayama Hachiro and Terayama Hatsu in Hirosaki City in the northern Japanese prefecture of Aomori. His father was said to have died at the end of Pacific War in Indonesia in September of 1945. At the age of nine, his mother moved to Kyūshū to work at an American military base while he himself went to live with relatives in the city of Misawa, also in Aomori. At this same time, Terayama lived through the Aomori air raids that killed more than 30,000 people.Terayama entered Aomori Prefectural High School in 1951, and in 1954 went to prestigious Waseda University's Faculty of Education to study Japanese language and literature. However, he soon dropped out because he fell ill with nephrotic syndrome. He received his education through working in bars in Shinjuku. His oeuvre consists of a number of essays claiming that more can be learned about life through boxing and horse racing than by attending school and studying hard. Accordingly, he was one of the central figures of the "runaway" movement in Japan in the late 1960s, as depicted in his book, play, and film "Throw Away Your Books, Run into the Streets! (書を捨てよ、町へ出よう）".In 1967, Terayama formed the Tenjō Sajiki (天井桟敷）theater troupe, whose name comes from the Japanese translation of the 1945 Marcel Carné film "Les Enfants du Paradis", so can be translated as "children of heaven", though it has a meaning similar to the English expression "The Peanut Gallery". The troupe was dedicated to the avant-garde and staged a number of controversial plays tackling social issues from an iconoclastic perspective. Some major plays include "Bluebeard" (青ひげ ), "Yes"（イエス）, and "The Crime of Fatso Oyama"（大山デブコの犯罪）, among others. Also involved with the theater was artist Tadanori Yokoo (横尾忠則), who designed many of the advertisement posters for the group. Musically, he worked closely with experimental composer J.A. Seazer and folk musician Kan Mikami.He was also involved in poetry and at 18 was the second winner of the Tanka Studies Award.Terayama experimented with 'city plays', a fantastical satire of civic life.Also in 1967, Terayama started an experimental cinema and gallery called 'Universal Gravitation,' which is in fact still in existence at Misawa as a resource center. The Terayama Shuji Memorial Hall, which has a large collection of his plays, novels, poetry, photography and a great number of his personal affects and relics from his theatre productions, can also be found in Misawa.Terayama published almost 200 literary works, and over 20 short and full-length films.He was married to Tenjo Sajiki co-founder Kyoko Kujo （九條今日子）, but they later divorced, although they continued to work together until Terayama's death on May 4, 1983 from cirrhosis of the liver.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sh%C5%AB...

Kidwalkin miniDv 30min. double projection /Athens 2006 And then one day, very rarely, you wake up having, for no reason at all, climbed through to the apex of your senses and suddenly the wings of birds are knifeblades tearing up the air, the grass is speaking with its thousand tongues, the sliding bus doors are roaring, the crowd is shifting in the manner of a gigantic beast, your ears are humming and you are thinking this is it, this is it, you can feel it between your teeth you want to brake it, this crystalline thing. Katerina Iliopoulou, (happyfew.gr/poetrybox) I have a habit of recording my routes in the city using my camera in real time. Sometimes I do this full of intent and others almost mechanically. Sometimes I am on foot and other times I do it from the trolley or a moving car. One day I wandered how might this constantly enraged and bleating and overwhelming city universe, look from the height of a child. I lowered the camera to my waist and I walked on. Watching those recordings later, I had the feeling of experiencing a nonexistent world, a made up universe or the memory of a dream. A slight shift is often enough to activate poetry within things, a false step, the abruption of continuity, a blind look. I kept on shifting other things- the speed, the color, the sound. The parrallel projection where the movement of the camera is in two different axes, is interesting for me, as a device of visual orchestration and also because it creates the illusion of a three-dimentional enviroment. Noise, visual clatter, the worn out, trivial human figures are all elements of this work, but I would wish to go a step forward. Under the surface, the concern for life is moving, for the next step, the next door which will open and close. Not the concern for survival as such, but the concern for the fleeting thing, which only the observer retrieves. The observer is interpreting the world, the gaze is the inventor of reality. Reality as mere succesion of facts is a neutral formless space, inside which the gaze establishes its domain.
