Festival Updates

I'm thrilled to report that the short film "Other Wounds" will show on February 20th at Anthology Film Archives in NYC as part of the Magikal Charm Festival.  Last fall, "Other Wounds" showed at the Downtown Tyler Festival, which was a lot of fun to attend.

"A Well-proved Helpmate" showed last month in Montana at the Flathead Lake International Cinemafest. The script for "Helpmate" was a finalist at the Richmond International Film Festival.

I have a new article in the online arts journal Glasstire that discusses Paolo Sorrentino's "The Great Beauty" and is also a call for more site-specific art works and happenings in my home city of Dallas.
Here is a excerpt:

"Dallas, like any city, possesses landmarks capable of bouncing light in such a way, directing wind in such a way, cutting a figure against the sky in such a way as to summon an awe experience. Sometimes a lucky commuter will catch this sight on his or her own. An encounter with a group of artists making a sign to such phenomena will involve several more commuters in the experience. I argue Dallas-based artists can and should reclaim “awesome” with events and happenings that alter ordinary commuter time into periods of luminous details."
