The Story of Ping – episode 1 “Reach”

Thursday, August 2nd, 2007

A while ago our song Towards The Bare Hill from our mini-album Under Giant Trees was part of ThinkSynchFilms short film Competition.

We can now proudly present one of the results from this. Iyvone Khoo and Miguel Guzman from the UK have made a nice little video. Its a story of a girl puppet named Ping who is on a quest for freedom.

Iyvone and Michael would like to make an episode two of this story. They would like to hear from you what should happen to Ping now? Any suggestions? Please leave them as a comment

Good Copy Bad Copy

Friday, June 8th, 2007

Yesterday I sat down to watch this documentary – Good Copy Bad Copy – about copyrights. Over the two past years I have read a bunch of articles on the subject, I have witnessed panel debates on the issue and had many discussions about it with friends and people who likes music…

I have to say this documentary has everything and more even so! It takes you through well known issues like sampling in hip-hop to IFPI´s and RIAA´s legal actions against the youngsters who love music the most to interesting perspectives from the Nigerian film industry and the Brazilian Techno Brega movement. It is entertaining, it is full of surprizes it has great music, clipping and heroes and villains who share their knowledge and thoughts about copyright in this internet and digital driven age.

This documentary is simply great! I recommend to visit their website where you will find a link so you can download/watch the entire film and if you like you can also donate money to the filmmakers: Ralf Christensen, Henrik Moltke & Andreas Johnson who we can thank for this little masterpiece.
