Spark is a arts show aired on public TV in San Francisco, but they also have a large realvideo archive of their shows available online. A friend sent over a link to their piece on Pauline Oliveros which uses some footage from a small concert we caught last year in Oakland. I also found a funny piece on the cartoonist Keith Knight - who notes, there’s more cats featured in newspaper comics than blacks. The real highlight of the archive I’ve found so far though is the piece on the Rova Saxophone Quartet - not a lot of music, but interesting words and behind the scenes footage leading up to their 25th Anniversary shows - which featured contributions from the likes of Nels Cline and Otomo Yoshihide - I’m really kicking myself for not taking the bus up for those shows last year (or was it the year before?). Definitely worth checking it - lots more I plan to view soon. 10:07 PM >>> 0 comments
