A theme of choice cuts

The Clock by Christian Marclay
National Gallery of Canada, Feb 10 – 25 Mar 25 2012
"The Clock evokes the wonder and illusionism of more than a century of cinema through a captivating 24-hour looped video that plays in real-time. This remarkable production compiles thousands of film references to time and timepieces creating a compelling moving image illustration of the minutes of a passing day." - http://www.gallery.ca/theclock/

Canadian Spaces with Chopper McKinnon
CKCU Radio, Feb 11 2012, 10 AM
"Chopper has invited Bruce White, owner of the wonderful ByTowne Cinema, to co-host this special edition of 'Canadian Spaces'. Bruce has selected songs that are connected with movies in some way. For example, Emm Gryner and Joel Plaskett both make musical appearances in the movie 'One Week', and Lynn Miles' 'Surrender Dorothy' was inspired by 'The Wizard of Oz'. - http://cod.ckcufm.com/programs/129/info.html

Curtain Call (again)
Ottawa-Gatineau Film and Television Development Corporation
"In January 2012, the Board of Directors of the Ottawa-Gatineau Film and Television Development Corporation (OGFT) voted to dissolve the organization. The City of Ottawa recognizes the huge potential that the film, television and the rapidly growing global digital media industry represents and is ready to make considerable investment into increasing the number of productions in Ottawa and growing our local resources. In this vein, OCRI (soon to known as Invest Ottawa) recently hired a Commissioner, Geneviève Ménard Hayles, to lead Film, Television and Digital Media at Invest Ottawa." - http://www.ogft.com/news-events/
