Ever watched a film and thought I would love to talk to the director to find out a bit more about the thinking of it, well here’s your chance with Carol Morley and her film Dreams of a Life.
When beautiful Joyce Vincent died in her bedsit in North London in 2003, nobody noticed. Three years later her body was discovered surrounded by the Christmas presents she’d been wrapping and with the TV still on. Through imagined scenes and interviews with Joyce’s former friends, lovers and colleagues, filmmaker Carol Morley pieces together a resonant portrait of a forgotten life.

With a well-deserved place on the BBC Sound of 2012 list, Dot Rotten, previously known as Young Dot, has made a storming start to the new year with new single ‘Are You Not Entertained’ being named Zane Lowe’s ‘hottest record of the week’. Counting a diverse range of musical influences including Sting, Bob Marley and ‘Lil Wayne, the south Londoners sound is leading the UK’s grime scene and crossing over to mainstream and chart success. Already a hailed MC and producer (Tine Tempeh, Wiley, Ghetts) Dot Rotten now sits of the brink of big things in his own right. This is one show you will want to witness.
Manchester based artist Darren Williams, better known as Star Slinger and already touted by Guardian’s New Band of The Day as an act to keep your eye on, brings his unique sound to London for what is shaping up to be one hell of a line up. Best known for taking old R&B album cuts and spinning them into new songs. His debut album, Volume 1, sees snippets of Prefab Sprout and Musical Youth take centre stage. In addition, Star Slinger played hip hop and dance orientated sets on the festival circuit last year and is now working on a follow up album: Volume 2.

The Duke Mitchell Film Club Presents: Paranormal Documentaries Night
The Duke starts off 2012 with a night dedicated to the strange, bizarre and hugely entertaining Paranormal Documentaries that were all the rage in the late 1970s and early 1980s. These quasi-documentaries are packed with bad re-enactments, questionable witnesses and a cavalier disregard for facts, which makes them perfect for the first Duke night of the year!
The main feature of the evening is the 1982 documentary “The Jupiter Menace”, in which Duke favourite George Kennedy is our guide through a weird landscape that’s packed with religious re-enactments, strange vector computer graphics and a wild and completely over-the-top 70s Moog synthesiser score. It’s a must see!
There will also be all the regular supporting features, including Trailer Trash, a short film, film quiz, great music and much more, all with a Paranormal theme. So why not go along to the first Duke of 2012 and find out if we’re all going to die in 1982!

Hello World! by Christopher Baker at The Saatchi Gallery, is a large-scale audio visual installation comprised of more than 5000 of unique video diaries gathered from the Internet.
The project demonstrates the power of new democratic and participative media such as YouTube – that enables any individual to speak candidly to a (potentially massive) imagined audience from a private space such as a bedroom, kitchen, or dorm room.
What Hello World! also highlights is the sheer volume of noise that is thrown our way these days. The internet has been one of the main drivers in enabling anyone to express themselves in whatever way they want. This ranges from video logs, photo accounts to starting businesses and even using it to gain the American Presidency.
