| A NOISY DELIVERY | ||
|
GX Jupitter-Larsen (sometimes erroneously spelled Juppiter-Larsen) is an artist based in Hollywood, California who's been active in a number of underground art scenes since the late 1970s. Jupitter-Larsen has been involved in punk rock, mail art, cassette culture, the noise music scene, and zine culture. Shot around the world A Noisy Delivery is the first, yes the 1st, feature - length movie by GX. Official Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCDRurt-ZBM unofficial Trailers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ruq53Ai-Hg The synopsis: a couple were going to get together after the girlfriend had dropped off her package, but the boyfriend will have to keep waiting. The whole day turned out to be an attempt in crossing the distance between nothing and something. Everyone, it seems, was at the post office for philosophy instead of postage.

| The Dream Is Now (SC Progressive Network Movie Night) | ||
|
As Sen. Lindsey Graham leads Congress in the debate over immigration reform, this timely film and discussion considers the people most affected. The Dream is Now is a new 30-minute documentary by Academy Award-winning director, Davis Guggenheim (Waiting for 'Superman', An Inconvenient Truth). The Dream is Now gives voice to and puts a human face on the undocumented children of immigrants who are desperate to earn their citizenship and give back to the only country they've ever called home. The film also goes beyond the personal. It places these stories in a larger context and explores the consequences of continuing our current policies and maintaining the status quo ¿ consequences not just for these young people today, but for our country's future. Both moving and thought-provoking, The Dream is Now brings this pressing issue to America's attention, where we can all debate, discuss, and decide for ourselves what is right, what is fair, and what is best for our nation. See the movie trailer here. Free and open to the public. Snacks and beverages available for purchase.

Jeff Young & Paul Pinto
~~~ Richard Pressley
~~~ Greg Stuart
Jeff Young & Paul Pinto, members of theatrical new music collective thingNY, are on a fourteen-city 'Election Tour for a Stranger America' with their absurdly titled work, Jeff Young and Paul Pinto, Patriots, Run for Public Office on a Platform of Swift and Righteous Immigration Reform, Lots of Jobs, and a Healthy Environment: An Opera by Paul Pinto and Jeffrey Young. Created in 2011 as a parody of contemporary politics and politicians, the half-hour piece focuses on issues of immigration and national identity. New York-based musicians Jeffrey Young and Paul Pinto collaboratively wrote the text, music, and staging, scoring the piece for their own voices, violin, percussion, a turntable, and lots of cardboard boxes. In "Patriots", instrumental music alternates with sung and spoken words, zany and humorous topical quips alternate with personal, pointed critiques of the political zeitgeist, fully notated sections merge into structured musical and textual improvisations, and tonal harmonies mix with less traditional musical effects.
