Hello unto you.

 Here we have a rather encouraging update on the condition of Gary Todd, from The Cortical Foundation...
 Date: Thu, 7 Mar 2002 12:53:28 EST
 From: Tinyrecord@aol.com

 "Dear friends and supporters...
 Sorry for not sending something to you sooner but as you can imagine it's rather hectic...also the fact that Gary's condition changes day by day...and it seems always for the better. I have some great news to share. Monday the hospital called me to ask me if I was coming down...I said I wasn't planning on it cause I knew some other friends of Gary's (the venerable Marc, Valenta and Nava Weinstein) were going for a visit. But they said that I SHOULD come down and were debating amongst themselves if they should tell me or not and who was going to tell me (I overheard them when I had to retrieve a call-waiting and when I came back they didn't know I could still hear them), SOOOOO...I said I'd be down there at 12:30...

 When I arrived...the guard at the front desk said that I should be prepared to be amazed and that he was so happy to see what Gary had done...I could feel something in the air...the hospital was abuzz. As I approached the hallway, Gary was outside of his unit, already with Marc, Valenta and Nava, in a special wheelchair and was operating it with his feet. Surprisingly masterful at navigating space, he is now mobile. We spent the next couple of hours moving all around the building...going up and down the hallway, able to turn the wheelchair in the middle and go the other way. We went outside down to Olympic Boulevard and around the outside of the hospital just so he could feel the sun on his face and see where he's been for months and to just see, smell and feel the outside world. After 6 months of being on his back, this must have felt incredibly liberating and such a clear sign that he's making progress.

 He is still unable to directly communicate vocally and clearly let us know what he wants, but this is a huge step in his progress. The hospital staff was totally excited about him...he is clearly the favorite of the unit...and now will have the run of the place.

 As the hours passed, he started to get tired. So, they put him back to bed, but before he laid down, one of the nurses helped pull him up, so he could sit on the edge of the bed. He was even able to hold himself up without any support. I immediately massaged the whole of his back...I simply can't imagine having been feeling the gravity of my own weight on my back for 6 months. All this must feel so good for Gary.

 Gary seems very aware when he's awake. He even laughs silently and trying to smile...although at times the laugh causes him discomfort. But, he does understand when you talk to him. The laughing has been one of the clear signs of awareness. He also can put cds into the cd player and even headphone jacks in the small hole on the player, though he can't put it in all the way. He also can hold up cd packages, some books and magazines and thumb through them. Michael and I have noticed he even looks like he's reading the text, but we don't know for sure.

 The nurses tell me he helps them put his clothes on, and is eating little bits of pureed foods, although still is having trouble with liquids. But, he'll get there and he'll get his trachaeotomy removed. Last night, I had a dream he was walking, wearing a tie and talking very clearly. I hope this dream comes true.

 He does see a speech therapist who's evaluating his progress with regard to eventually removing the trachaeotomy. It's all one day at a time.

 Last month saw Hermann Nitsch and his assistant Martha come all the way from Vienna to visit Gary for 4 days. I know Gary was so happy to see him, as we all were around here. To travel all that way for a weekend was one of the kindest acts I've witnessed during this whole process. In fact, I can't thank all of you enough who've helped take some of the pressure off Michael and I. We've tried to orchestrate it so someone is there everyday and with the help of Maria Montgomery and Elaine Baker, who come down once a week. It really helps take some of the pressure off. Michael and I cover the other days. If you haven't visited...this is a great time to go, as he will most likely be awake and present and aware of your visit. Just don't go if you're at all feeling like a cold or flu. He is more active during the day. If you do decide to visit if you could drop me or Michael Intriere an email letting us know when...that way, perhaps we can take that particular day off.

 For those of you who've sent stuff to Gary - CDs, cards, photos, emails or letters - again, thank you. We read, play and show Gary your communiques and I know he's very glad to hear from you. So, please keep sending your mail. Some of your emails have fallen thru the cracks...I apologize, but sometimes it's difficult to personalize a response cause so much has happened.

 There is some bad news though. Gary's eyesight has been examined, and he is now blind in his left eye and there's been some damage in his other eye, but he can see well enough to operate the wheel chair with his feet. He still needs to relax both of his arms and some of his fingers on both hands. I have feeling that his tracheotomy makes him feel very vulnerable and he wants to protect himself...or he simply could be scared...and who wouldn't blame him for that? But we feel eventually he will relax his arms and hands and become more dexterous. He's shown a steady line of progress since December, and there's no reason why it can't continue. Gary's brain is rewiring itself...and given the extent to his injuries, what he is doing now is miraculous and a testament to his willpower. Keep him in your prayers and in your heart.

 Thanks again for all your support - and sorry for the lack of news on my part."

 ANTHONY McCALL & ANDREW TYNDALL - screening
 "Argument". (USA, 1978, 16mm, 75 min)

 "Ruthless in its provocation, a film that directly confronts the problematics of avant-garde film exhibition. Rigorously structural, "Argument" flicks relentlessly between magazine images, erotica, text and blank leader to a soundtrack of three male voices.
 Originally screened as a deliberately inflammatory tract, with the two filmmakers openly engaging with the post-screening onslaught, "Argument" contentiously addresses issues that feel critically relevant to the state of independent cinema here today. Come prepared to speak OUR mind."

 "Vinyl" (Andy Warhol, USA, 1965) 66'
 "Based on an interpretation of Anthony Burgess' novel "A Clockwork Orange", "Vinyl" has a claustrophobic, sado-masochistic script by Ronald Tavel. Gerard Malanga undergoes reconditioning for his transgressions as a juvenile delinquent. "My Hustler" is a first attempt at a more commercial film, with some concession towards conventional techniques. A sexual triangle competes for the attention of Paul America, a young stud ordered from the Dial-A-Hustler service."

 DISINFORMATION - lecture / demonstration
 "Rorschach Audio".

 ""Rorschach Audio" is a lecture and demonstration that offers the primary hypothesis that an informed understanding of the relevant aspects of psychoacoustics offers rational explanations for virtually all aspects of allegedly supernatural "Electronic Voice Phenomena". Amongst other ideas "Rorschach Audio" also demonstrates the influence that wartime intelligence work with sound had on E.H. Gombrich's masterpiece "Art and Illusion" - arguably the most important work of art theory ever published, and therefore the secondary hypothesis that the study of acoustic illusions will prove to be as important to understanding the emergent field of sound art as the study of optical illusions has historically been to the understanding of visual art. A print version of "Rorschach Audio" is available in the current issue of "Leonardo Music Journal", published by M.I.T. Press."

ANDY WARHOL - screening

"Imitation of Christ" (Andy Warhol, USA, 1967-69) 85'
"Sunset" (Andy Warhol, USA, 1967) 33'
"Warhol's recording of a beautiful California sunset was one of an unfinished series commissioned by art patrons Jean and Dominique de Menil, and visually echoes their Rothko Chapel. Nico reads poetry on the soundtrack. "Imitation of Christ" is a domestic comedy about a strange but beautiful young man who wanders through life oblivious to the complaints of his parents (Ondine and Brigid Polk) and the attempted seductions of his maid (Nico), his girlfriend (Andrea "Whips" Feldman) and the riotous antics of Taylor Mead. Edited down to feature-length from the 6-hour version included in Warhol's 25-hour double screen film **** (1967)."
