Inspired by the 17th Century Japanese screen painting by Kano Tanyu, “Night Fishing with Cormorants” and by Akira Yoshimura’s novel “Shipwrecks”, Kopmar says, “I am not telling a naturalistic story, but rather I have tried to make a work that will hold in equal reverence the spirit of the bird, the fish, and the fisherman.” User: Dosetaker Jul 27, 2009 3:57 PM

Permanent Tag: Music Videos Rating: Good Hits: 169 Comments: 0 Stand by Me: International Street Musician Version Stand by Me: International Street Musician Version This cover of Stand By Me was recorded by completely unknown artists in a street virtual studio all around the world. It all started with a base track—vocals and guitar—recorded on the streets of Santa Monica, California, by a street musician called Roger Ridley. The base track was then taken to New Orleans, Louisiana, where Grandpa Elliott—a blind singer from the French Quarter—added vocals and harmonica while listening to Ridley's base track on headphones. In the same city, Washboard Chaz's added some metal percussion to it. And from there, it just gets rock 'n' rolling bananas: The producers took the resulting mix all through Europe, Africa, and South America, adding new tracks with multiple instruments and vocals that were assembled in the final version you are seeing in this video. All done with a simple laptop and some microphones. User: BoogeBoogieston Apr 30, 2009 7:00 PM

Headline Tag: Television Rating: Amazing Hits: 806 Comments: 2 The Fifth Estate: After the Storm The Fifth Estate: After the Storm A heartbreaking CBC documentary, originally aired Oct. 29, 2008 on CBC-TV, RT 45:02. It's been two years since Halifax's Helen Hill was murdered in New Orleans. She and her husband, Dr. Paul Gailiunas, members of the thriving Halifax arts community, had moved to N.O. in 2001 where she became one of the founding members of the New Orleans Filmmakers Cooperative. Her husband Paul, lead singer of Piggy, as well as a physician, worked at a clinic that helped the city's poor, many of whom lacked medical insurance. Then it all went horribly wrong. First, Hurricane Katrina destroyed their home, and later when they returned to rebuild, an intruder shot and killed Helen, and then shot Paul several times, while leaving their two year old son unharmed. The Fifth Estates' Bob McKeown reports on the incident tonight in a story that explains how the circumstances of her death may be key in understanding what has gone wrong in New Orleans before, during and since Katrina.
