The English Surgeon

A good documentary does more to stimulate my mind than the best fictional films. The English Surgeon is above and beyond a spectacular documentary. Most scriptwriters couldn't dare compete with the sheer drama and uncomfortable tension filmmaker Geoffrey Smith captures in his real-life story of English neurosurgeon Henry Marsh, who became fed up with the inability of Ukrainian doctors to treat patients in need of brain operations and decided to do something about it. When a young Ukrainian man needs an operation to remove a tumor in his brain, Doctor Smith is his only hope for long-term survival. Unfortunately for this patient, modern luxuries are nowhere to be found in modern-day Ukraine and the only the way the operation can move forward is by using nothing but local anesthetics to reduce the pain of drilling thru the scull and scraping away the cancerous cells growing on his brain--In other words, doing the entire operation while completely awake and conscious. Beyond the unbelievable situations throughout the film, the simple message of humanitarianism shines.  In today's consumerist smorgasbord of a world we live in, it can be easy to forget the simple things that make being a fellow human being a rewarding experience. This film helps remind us. -Clayton Hauck

Blow Up SF

6/26/2009 | San Francisco: I arrived in San Francisco last Friday afternoon and had a day to wander around and hang out before heading over to Rickshaw Stop to shoot Blow Up SF. I spent most of said time with Richie Panic and his friends before meeting up with Ava Berlin in hopes of using her couch to take a quick nap. The nap never happened because an opening slot for me to DJ came up last minute, so we all headed over to the club and I played a few jams before the local DJs took over and got the kids to go crazy. Lazer Sword, Richie Panic, DJ Dials & Marko from Sugarcult all played. Here, you can see all the photographic evidence from the day, which includes plenty of photos of Richie's cat and plenty of photos of Richie himself.. along with more photos of my week in San Francisco to come!
