Second Screening
We are happy to report that the tickets for the second screening of Speaking in Code are now on sale. You can buy them here. The screening will take place Thursday, May 21st at 7pm. But the best part is yet to come.
As we pursue premieres in all corners of the world, especially film festivals in Europe, the UK and America, the one place we know we can screen the film, without regard to film festival entry rules, is right here in Boston. Being that the world premiere already happened at the Somerville Theatre, we can show the film around town at will. And the Brattle is a special place to have it, to be sure.
Since arriving in Boston, the Brattle Theatre has supported the underground. And, as we all know, everything starts in the underground. There were a few months when the Brattle may have gone away. But no more. Last year, the Brattle hosted the Boston premiere of Daft Punk’s Electroma, and now we rejoin with them for Speaking in Code.
The best part: A ticket stub from Speaking in Code gets you to the front of the line that night to see the Wighnomy Brothers at Make It New. This will be their US debut. You don’t want to miss it. Buy your tickets now.
Music-wise the now Berlin-based Dj and producer Philip Sherburne is one of the people featured in the film. He wrote about the experience at his popular and long-running blog a few weeks back. Comments to the post include “how can i see it if i’m in the uk?” and “hope I will be able see it in France …” We hope so too!
He recently recorded an excellent mix for Time To Express and the Fairtilizer community, but we’re rehosting it to be sure all fans of the movie can hear his aesthetic and talent. Of course, he includes a track from Robert Henke (free downloads of his music are here), also in Speaking in Code and Andy Stott, whom we met at the screening in Boulder, CO.
“The tracklist came together in fits and starts,” he tells the blog, “over the span of several weeks. There’s no explicit theme; rather, the set arose out of the attempt to fix a certain kind of sound in place, one that had been flitting around my head for some time.”

The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.
