Mark on the calendar, October 13th 2005 is the date of the first John Peel Day<\/a>. Later I hope to have time enough and the inclination of the awake to collect together as much John Peel as I can to share with you all. audiography<\/a> has dedicated this week to him and has already been posting some very choice music<\/a>. However, my main contribution to the discovery of new music will be slightly early, as Nicholas<\/a> has pointed me to loveliness this evening. <\/p>\n

The artist is that 1 guy<\/b>, and he is the best one man music I’ve ever heard.<\/b><\/a> His lyrics are superb, his wacky home-made instrument intimidating awesome. It’s called “The Magic Pipe” because it is. I’m not sure I know of anything so captivatingly versatile. There’s a Listen To Entire Album button<\/b>. I highly recommend it and also say, watch the video too<\/a>. <\/p>\n

I’ve discovered that I’m still twanging in dangerous ways from my dancing binge. It’s effort to turn my head, it goes against the natural reaction of my body complaint. I’m impressed. I walked away from an afternoon a few weeks ago attempting to teach Graham<\/a> and Ryan<\/a> how to use a sword with less bruises. (And Graham catches on quick to the idea of being hit without being hit).<\/i> Course, part of it is the stupidly long walk I took with Alastair<\/a> earlier today. He’s only in Vancouver a few days before leaving for San Francisco and Fiji, so we went for breakfast at Slickety Jim’s Chat & Chew this afternoon. My first mistake was expecting service on a holiday, my second was walking with him from there to Commercial and First, then up to Broadway. My eyes waved at some houses I knew and some interesting landmark graveyards, but the blisters are trying to argue that it wasn’t worth it. Lying on the couch at Korean Movie Monday was like sinking into hot chocolate on a cold day. <\/p>\n

The film tonight wasn’t astonishing, My Beautiful Girl Mari<\/a> was too mellow for that, but it was legitimately beautiful. The IMDB summary tells you nothing of use. What’s needed is an appreciation for magic realism, for the illusion of edgeless animation, and a commiseration with the logic of children. There is no painfully basic plot, only a gentle climb into a remembered summer that unwinds into terrifically averted disaster and cleverly prosaic goodbyes. The alternate world the boys enter is deeply reminiscent of dreaming, (that the cat also visits this world, they do not bother to explain, and nor will I, as it should be evident), being a place of clouds and peculiar consequences that drops them back into the real world without any warning, though certainly with the sadness of parting.
