David Lynch – Masters of Cinema

Posted by Notcot on Jan 5, 2013 in Cult Film
David Lynch - Masters of Cinema

David Lynch (USA, b. 1946) is perhaps the best known of all cult directors, whose Mulholland Drive marks cinema’s arrival to the 21st century. His career began more than 30 years ago, with the groundbreaking, mystifying “Eraserhead” (1977). With “Blue Velvet” (1986), “Wild at Heart” (1990) and “Lost Highway” (1997) Lynch breathed new life into the sensory experiences of film audiences and disrupted narrative logic to mysterious and mystifying effect. In the early 1990s, he invented a new TV series genre with “Twin Peaks”. Although he is a Hollywood director, Lynch works at the edges of the studio system, exploring the many facets of his artistic talent, whose creations, including photography, painting and music, are now making their way into museums and galleries.

Spa Lights

Posted by Notcot on Dec 3, 2012 in Gadgets
Spa Lights

You’d think lights in a bath would mean lights out for whoever got in with them… far from it. These are the perfect mood enhancers in a low lit bathroom. With the bathroom lights on you can see the different colours of the Spa lights casing, but once you turn the room lights out all the spa lights will give off the same ambient orange/yellow haze. Lights not to be mistaken for the aliens in the TV series ‘invasion’. Warning: people have been found to develop compulsive Spa Lights disorder, where, due to their great appeal, customers buy so many that there is no room in the bath for water or themselves! Each pack contains 2 waterproof plastic Spa Lights that will light up continuously for approximately 120 hours. A switch on side of Spa Light turns on/off the soft light. A removable large sucker on base of each Spa Light enables it to be stuck on: the side of the bath, wall tiles, and bath tub bottom. Remove sucker to allow lights to float. Colour of shell may vary (blue, pink, yellow, green).

Going to Sea in a Sieve: The Autobiography

Posted by Notcot on Oct 29, 2012 in Cult Film
Going to Sea in a Sieve: The Autobiography

Born in 1957 in Deptford, south London, Danny’s first job after dropping out of school at the age of 15 was in One Stop Records, a small record shop in London’s West End, frequented by Elton John and Mick Jagger, a store rather like the one in High Fidelity. His career in print journalism began in 1976 when he co-founded the fanzine Sniffin’ Glue leading to an offer from the New Musical Express, where his first job was as a receptionist. Soon after, Baker was contributing regular astute articles, reviews and later interviews to the publication. Danny then began making 30-minute documentaries at LWT for the cult series 20th Century Box, and appeared in two television commercials: Daz washing powder and Mars bar chocolate. His stellar career on the radio began on BBC GLR in 1989, then moved to BBC Radio 5 where he presented sports shows including the groundbreaking 6-0-6, which still influences the media’s approach to criticism of players, managers and referees. He also worked on BBC Radio 1, back to BBC GLR, Talk Radio and later on Virgin Radio.On his return to BBC last May, Danny won ‘Sony Radio Personality of the Year’ and appeared on Desert Island Discs last July. Six months earlier he had gone public on his cancer and chemotherapy treatment, and thankfully all seems well. Danny Baker currently presents a weekday show at BBC London 94.9, which features phone-ins and discussions with his on-air team regarding music and entertainment of the 1960s and 1970s, and a Saturday morning show on BBC Radio 5. This book charts Danny’s showbiz career, the highs and lows, and everything in between, including the accusation that he killed Bob Marley…
