"Coastal Calls is a film which deals with primary filmic elements and produces constantly shifting relationships between them. The film is made up of four 100ft rolls/takes of slow pans of a beach and its surrounding landscape with focus and exposure in constant change. The sound is that of space (sea, wind) alternating with that of a wind instrument (Shawm). Only at specific instances do focus and exposure match to give an image that is readable in illusionistic terms, so that any attempt to 'place' oneself is subverted by the constant perceptual shift applied to the image ... never gathered into representation but only crossing points of unstabilised representation, as if by accident." - Michael Maziere, Undercut.
Commissioned by Projects UK in Newcastle upon Tyne, England and featured on the Pieces compilation VHS.
A precursor of much recent scratch work. The tape recuts and fuses two adverts for washing machines; one from the 1950's, the other from the 80's. Using only this original source material the tape creates a dialogue between two media visions of a technological utopia - both equally absurd and disturbing.
Structural film by Ivan Faktor examining television and media.

Most of Roxy's fans will buy all their DVD's as each of them offers a different lineup of the band and different songs . This lineup had an exceptional rhythm section , who help give the songs a lift and they make me want to watch and listen again and again . One gets a good idea of how mellow Roxy could be as the ballads are convincingly done , with stirring lead work by Neil Hubbard on MY ONLY LOVE being the highpoint of a standout version . A good release - maybe one day they will be able to clean up the picture . I'm very happy with the music , however . Worth a spin for those fans of this influential band .
