Hey Max, I just found your blog while trying to track down a copy of Throbbing Gristle's 16mm short "After Cease To Exist". Somehow I landed on Ubuweb's Film page, got distracted by your excellent liner notes on the Kenneth Anger films, and ended up here. It's very exciting to discover a wellspring of Experimental Cinema and Art in Cork, I really had no idea such a scene existed. I have my own blog of film reviews - mostly offbeat stuff, Horror and exploitation. Anyway, I just wanted to Hi...
Hi, Wes. Thanks for your comment and for getting in touch. Had a quick look at your blog, impressive and well written... Any luck with After Cease To Exist?
Cheers, Max
Many thanks for the kind word Max. No luck with the Throbbing Gristle film, I had hopes of it being included in the Throbbing Gristle Video Archive box set but it wasn't to be... In an age where almost everything can be located at the end of a search engine, this one is proving rather elusive...
Almost reassuring that there's still something out there that can't be immediately tracked down, isn't it! :)
If you want to give me a shout at any point, I can be reached at editor@experimentalconversations.com
