NEW - Vaux Turbulence Movie and Chris Goan Book of Poems and Meditations
Now on proost this month are a new book and movie. Listing is a little gem, a surprise that came Proost’s way over the horizon from Chris Goan. He loves crafting words, playing with words, chewing over words, creating and re-creating worlds with words. His poems and meditations are a delight, spinning off from and opening up new takes on familiar verses of ancient wisdom from the scriptures. It’s the second book from Chris on proost. The first is the wonderful meditation he wrote to go along with Si Smith’s images of Christ’s journey into the wilderness ‘40’. The books is available as both hard copy or to download as pdf.
We're also delighted to have laid our hands on Turbulence at the Boundary, a vaux movie. This film from Vaux turns a trip round the M25 into a meditation on ourselves, on our cities and on God finding turbulence at the boundary. It was originally created as part of a series of experimental films for silent worship at Greenbelt Festival. It lasts for 20 minutes. If you do want to create a soundtrack, each of the film's sections was envisaged by Vaux to have the following tunes (see the film credits) - Scratch bass by Lamb | 9'25" by Global Communications | Pakard by Plastikman | Insensatez by Robert Wyatt | One by Lamb. But anything instrumental and urban would work nicely we suspect. The film is shot on Super8 and has four sequences/meditations:
Looking back
Looking Out
Looking in
Looking forward
If you live in the UK London's M25 is iconic. If you are elsewhere it's urban spirituality that we hope will connect. See www.vaux.net for further resources. We've kept the price at £1.99 our regular movie price in spite of it being 20 minutes - so it's great value!
