"The Homecoming" by Paul O'DONOVAN
Hi all,
I did not write any report in March because there were not enough posts for a report, and from my side nothing special to write about. Here March has been cold, and it seemed that winter was endless. But the arrival of spring seems to bring us energy again.
Chris Damitio's visit :
Here I just had the visit of Chris Damitio who has been touring about Europe. Chis is an anthropologist and writer who has been part of the Zone since a number of years. After living in Hawai, he has settled in Morocco where he is going to get maried soon.
Meeting Zoners is always a great pleasure and a rich experience: a lot to share and exchange about.
You can read about his trip in his blog at http://existensis.com/
The account of his stay in Thouars is at http://fuknus.chrisdamitio.com/?p=5164 and his photos of Thouars à http://www.flickr.com/photos/chrisdamitio/sets/72157616791002573/
See also his account of his trip in Paris at http://fuknus.chrisdamitio.com/?p=5170 and more photos at http://www.flickr.com/photos/chrisdamitio/sets/72157616813746879/ .

Interzone economy
Presently a number of my contacts are broke. I propose that we consider the problem with the light of the work done since the early 2000 on a non-Aristotelian economy in the Zone at http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Crete/9445/economy.html and http://semantiquegenerale.free.fr/ecorestruct.htm , and see together how we can get organized from there. I have put up Interzone Editions on this base and since I found it satisfying.
All ideas and suggestions welcome ! If you are interested, join me at i.aubert@interpc.fr .
Burroughs' stuff
OUR WHACKY UNCLE BILL" Hi Isabelle.
I thought this might interest you. Mick Farren, the former British musician and writer has been living in Los Angeles for some time now. Lately he has been serializing recaptioned pictures of WSB. I thought this was especially interesting http://doc40.blogspot.com/2009/04/our-whacky-uncle-bill_13.html ."

Literature:
Ramuntcho Matta's interview:
The interview realized in february is now on line at http://aubert.isa.googlepages.com/ramuntcho260209.htm It's a long one ! You can get a rough translation through google translator, if you click on the link Traduction.
The previous interview was in september 2004, on line in Reporters Rédacteurs d'Interzone , hosted by Geogicies. As this provider is going to delete the sites it hosts in some months, I have started to copy those interviews in this site : see : Interview de Ramuntcho Matta par ALAIN DISTER - France Culture (2000) http://aubert.isa.googlepages.com/ramuntcho.htm
Interview de Ramuntcho MATTA :10 septembre 2004 http://aubert.isa.googlepages.com/ramuntcho5.htm
Le Temps des Naguals
I had foreseen to publish it at the begining of the year, but some more chapters coming have delayed its come out. I am working at it and hope it will be ready soon.
Ramuntcho Matta's interviews are included in it. I am including Paul O'Donovan's illustration on Burroughs and Gysin, which are on line in Interzone galleries .
Another text by Gianluca from 10111.org collective studio on the dreamachine is going to be added as well.
The contents of the most of chapters are on line in Interzone Library at http://www.geocities.com/interzonelibrary/0tncontents.html , though the definitive version to be published will be different from the previous version on line.
About the English compilation, the huge one, I have added the texts on line in this page .
CHELSEA HOTEL MANHATTAN: Joe Ambrose's footage of Chelsea Hotel veteran Herbert HunckeThe Sydneyscreening is part of a Huncke night being curated by Jack Sergeant to celebrate the publication of his history of Beat cinema, Naked Lens. The headline film will be Herbert and Louis by Laki Vazakas, which offers the most compelling portrait of this primal talent and is itself a work of cinematic literature. By turns heartbreaking, visionary, and shocking this compelling film is not to be missed.
The movies will be shown at the Mu-Meson Archives at Crn Parramatta Rd & Trafalgar St Annandale, West Sydney on April 23rd. The $10 admission includes supper. Jack’s book will be available to purchase. Ph 9550-1078 for details

Whirling Dervish news
- We are so very close to finishing the second EP. It sounds so good. This is the greatest thing any of us have been a part of. Jared Rushton, who produced our first EP, is producing the new EP also. His studio wizardry has made this all possible. Jared, we salute you. We're all so excited. It wasn't easy. I contracted bronchitis requiring urgent care twice during recording. We've experienced overwhelming personal tragedy. We've had a lot of setbacks. But we've persevered. The great thing about being in a band is all of the hardships you experience personally and collectively can be recycled; all of the negative energy can be harnassed into inspiration.
- We've already written enough songs for another EP. We're not sure how we're going to proceed with these yet since the second EP isn't even out, but you will be hearing these new songs at shows too. The new stuff is very bi-polar for lack of a better term. These are some the darkest, creepiest, most forboding songs we've written as well as some of the most happy and upbeat (in a manic, forgot to take my Lithium kinda way).
- There will be many new changes in the coming months. Justin, William and I have been discussing new ideas. Not at liberty to discuss in detail yet, but these changes will be big.
- We have a show at Bordello April 15th. It's us and a burlesque show courtesy of Peepshow Menagerie. I was not the biggest burlesque fan before we played our first burlesque show but Chris Beyond and Peepshow Menagerie really do an amazing job and have kinda made me a fan. Really fun, funny, classy, and sexy:Bordello901 E. 1st St.Los Angeles, CA 90012$10
- Doors open at 9 p.m.- We will be playing lots of shows everywhere in the coming months. We can't wait to see all of you. We miss you fools. Let us know how your doing.

this year there will be no film crews and no multi track recording!!! So there will be nothing to interfere with the pure simple pleasure of hearing the musicians in the open air under starry skies. I have put some examples of what is available from easyjet below. Hope this finds you all well and hope to see you soon in the little blue hills of the Ahl Srif.

Neil Young 'Cough Up The Bucks' Video Premiere
Neil Young has made another video off his album "Fork In The Road"! This time, it's for the song "Cough Up The Bucks," and it's premiering on Myspace right now.
This is the fourth hand-made video from the "Fork In The Road" album. Neil has been quietly making these videos completely on his own, with nothing more than a simple camera and an idea, and more are coming as Neil continues to shoot each day. These revolutionary videos do more with a zero-dollar budget than a $300,000 dollar budget could ever dream of - they're pure, renegade Neil Young at their best.Click here to check it out. And head over to neilyoung.com to pre-order the new album - in stores April 7th!
