Wish You Were Here is one of Pink Floyd's best albums ever with the classics "Shine On You Crazy Diamond", "Have A Cigar" & one of my top floyd favorites ever, "Welcome To The Machine" ... extremely well written about our machine like modern society where we love following patterns and trends much like programmed machines ...

The concept behind "Welcome to the Machine" and "Have a Cigar" suggested the use of a handshake (an often empty gesture), and George Hardie designed a sticker containing the album's logo of two mechanical hands engaged in a handshake, to be placed on the opaque sleeve. The album's cover image was inspired by the idea that people tend to conceal their true feelings, for fear of "getting burned", and thus two businessmen were pictured shaking hands, one man on fire.

"Getting burned" was also a common phrase in the music industry, used often by artists denied royalty payments. Two stuntmen were used (Ronnie Rondell and Danny Rogers), one dressed in a fire-retardant suit covered by a business suit. His head was protected by a hood, underneath a wig. The photograph was taken at the Warner Bros. studios in Los Angeles.

Here is a documentary all about the making of Wish You Were Here ... the film starts with a brief background on Floyd's Epic release, The Dark Side of the Moon following which came their next mega album "Wish You Were Here" capturing the imagination of millions all over ... as always ... :)

Chasing Daylight : The Crop Circles of 2009 is a brilliantly woven documentary film by Steve Alexander, Rob Luckins & Karen Alexander ... Temporary Temple Productions 2009.

"Recording the crop circles as we do is not just a technical exercise. It is not a joy ride in a helicopter. It is a mysterious shamanic journey where inspirational images of the circles are exchanged for creative energy, imagination, and dreams and sleep. An intimacy is achieved between photographer and subject that transcends consciousness parameters, until by the height of the season, with long hours, early mornings, late nights, and accumulated sleep deprivation an altered state of consciousness is inspired and a channel of communication opens.

We are often asked how we manage to take the pictures we do. We consider that we record the circles with the cooperation and guidance of whatever lies behind their creation. To consider the formations mere objects to be snapped at by a camera is to fail to fully respond to the depth of the phenomenon. For a short while each summer we give ourselves over to a measure of intoxication with the circles that allows us to do our work."

This is a brand new film from the Temporary Temple Productions team who bring an artistic sensibility to their reportage of the crop circle phenomenon. Stunning aerial helicopter footage, ground footage, woven together with an atmospheric soundtrack. There is no narrative or voice over, just a beautiful tapestry of images and sound. Be transported into the fields of Southern England, into and around the magnificent crop circles of 2009 - the next best thing to being there yourself ! Better still buy the Companion Book - Crop Circle Year Book 2009 to read about all the circles in the film ! Source : Temporary Temples Related Articles :
