Sorry for the slow-down on the website — I blame Blogger for changing things around and messing things up! Luckily we have a new webmaster lady at chickfactor (welcome, Janice!) and hopefully soon we will be catapulted out of the past and have a modern website that has a working RSS feed, and soon Twitter/Fbk and all that crap. I apologize for the state of things! Meanwhile, most of you know that I worked on the Magnetic Fields documentary! It opens in theaters in North America (and hopefully the UK) this fall, starting with a showing at Film Forum from Oct 27-Nov 9, a Toronto opening Nov 4, Los Angeles opening Nov 5 and San Francisco Nov 11. More cities TBA soon! We are also close to getting our very first screening dates confirmed for the UK. The dates are usually updated here.
