I really recommend this. Brian was kind enough to send me a preview copy and I
hoped to be able to write something about it but life and the start of the new
academic year caught up with me. I feel bad because it is a really great piece
of work.
Anyone who has seen any of Brian's video work will immediately recognise here
too the union of poetry - heady, strange, sensual - and discipline (and I mean
the kind of discipline that is the pre-requisite of elegance, not discipline as
some abstract moral quality) that characterises that work.
There's a third factor, too, and for me it's a key measure or indicator or
whether something detains me personally - all Brian's work is deeply human and
humane. There's warmth and quirk and playfulness and sadness and tragedy and
near despair, too - one feels addressed all the while by a companion human
consciousness, a fellow sensibility - in some ways mysterious, and ineluctably
other, in others so familiar as to feel a continuation of our own being.
I'm too old to know whether one can dance to any of it but it certainly chugs
along in the most contagious of ways.
So, Brian, sorry this is belated; everyone else - give it a listen.
cheers
michael
