An invisible hand presses the record button on the radio, then stops: advertisements vying with weather reports for the New York area are intercut with news stories about death in its various forms – murder, plane crashes, foreign wars. Recorded in 1965, the 33-minute ‘Puertos De Los Santos’ is one of the rare and previously unreleased William S. These tapes were recorded as an extension of the cut-up method that Burroughs and Brion Gysin had been applying in print since the very late 1950s and were still working on in the mid-’60s. There is a direct link between these tapes and pop music. Notes

Italy's Drowned Village The story of how a church in Italy was submerged underwater, so that now only the spire can now be seen above the water’s surface… Photo: Image: suedtirol.altoadige Legend has it the bell can still be heard in the dead of winter, sounding out its knell despite the fact that it has long since been removed. The bell tower of the 14th century church that projects from Lake Reschen in the far north of Italy is all that is now visible of the once thriving village of Graun. Photo: Image: Petr Drápalík The history of Graun, near the Austrian-Italian border, stretches back to Roman times, but this small village enjoyed the relative anonymity of most settlements of its size until the 1930s, when the story of why it was submerged begins.

Scriptwriting In The Classroom Introduction What do we want students to know about scripts, scriptwriting, and screenplays? To begin with, most media (advertising, newscasts, billboards, TV, Radio, movies) start as writing. Before an inch of video or film is shot, before an ad is designed, someone has written it down on paper (or on the web.) Secondly, those who use scripts use various techniques. Learning to write a script opens the door to a process that many students have never been exposed to. To begin, I suggest teachers write the words AUDIO and VIDEO on the board or on an overhead transparency. Explore the resources by clicking the links in the left hand column.
