Silent film with live music from Stu Brown and Paul Harrison This extraordinary silent film is a unique document of human knowledge about the world and the universe in the 1920s. Fifteen special effects experts and nine cameramen were involved in the production, which combines documentary scenes, historical documents, fictional elements, animation and educational impact. Glasgow based composers and improvisers Stu Brown (drums/electronics) and Paul Harrison (keyboards/electronics)are Herschel 36. “Their score was one of the best musical accompaniments I’ve heard. Their supremely confident but loose score fitted the film beautifully, helping to create the right sense of scale and forward motion.” BFI Sight and Sound magazine

Live Literature
Some time ago, David Lodge made the observation that “Literature is mostly about having sex and not much about having children; life's the other way round.” This evening event with internationally-acclaimed Scottish author Janice Galloway and her latest book of short stories, JELLYFISH, explores the often quite separate and highly complex worlds of love, relationships and the rearing children in modern times. The evening includes a reading or two, a chance for chat and, of course, observations as to how the world turns now.

Janice will be holding an informal discussion group for readers and writers at 4pm. Limited spaces available so book early.

MAIRI CAMPBELL: AULD LANG SYNE Solo fiddle and song-led theatre
Join us for an evening with Mairi Campbell who will start with a set of her acoustic solo songs followed by her new five star show, Auld Lang Syne. Mairi tells us of her adventures with Scotland’s most famous song: singing for US President Bill Clinton, a starring role in Sex and the City and a reinterpretation of the Robert Burns’ classic that changed her life. Delivered with her trademark wit, gentle charm and unparalleled musical ability, this sequel to five-star Pulse, is a funny and heartfelt show that resonates with universal truths. Thig ann an cuideachd Màiri Chaimbeul airson seata de na h-òrain aice fhèin agus an uair sin an consart ùr aice a th’ air còig rionnagan a chosnadh leis an luchd-lèirmheis, Auld Lang Syne. Anns a’ chuirm seo, cluinnear a cuid sgeulachdan co-cheangailte ris an òran Albannach as ainmeile, Auld Lang Syne, mar a sheinn i dha Ceann-suidhe nan Stàitean, Bill Clinton, mun a’ phàirt a bh’ aice ann an Sex and the City agus mìneachadh às ùr den òran le Burns a dh’atharraich a beatha. Tha a’ chuirm air a liubhairt le àbhachdas, bàidh agus sàr chomasan ciùil, mar a rinn i leis an taisbeanadh mu dheireadh aice, Pulse. ‘S e taisbeanadh èibhinn agus cridheil a th’ ann anns a bheil fìrinn a dh’aithnicheas sinn uile. Air a cho-dhealbhadh agus a stiùireadh le Kath Burlinson. Page 10 SEALL SPRING PROGRAMME 2019

How to draw and paint on film; what sorts of sequences of images are most effective; create your own section of animated film with easy to use materials. Also simple, effective foley techniques to record an accompanying soundtrack and music for the finished film. While everyone's section is being edited into one whole film, assist the Cucinema company members to make a simple dinner of pasta with tomato sauce. We then eat together and watch the film. Do bring a bottle to share over dinner. This is suitable for all ages and we encourage groups to come along as well for a night out. Cucinema is part of the Puppet Animation Festival.
