Henry Jacobs : The Fine Art Of Goofing Off
CD/DVD :: Important Records ::




Curated and produced by Jack Dangers and Alex Artaud this project grew out of several gatherings in Mill Valley, CA and Point Reyes, CA over the course of a couple of years. Conceived as a radio program, the CD was compiled, edited and mastered by Jack Dangers as a journey through the found archive of unreleased tapes by Henry Jacobs.

The DVD contains three 30-minute programs, The Fine Art of Goofing Off, a collaboration of experimental and playful animation between Jacobs and artist Bob McClay, produced in the early 70's for broadcast on San Francisco public television station KQED. Literally saved from the dustbin by McClay, this is first commercial release of these programs.

Critic Armond White interviews music video pioneer Ben Stokes and presents a selection of new and past classic visions. Stokes, originally working out of Chicago's H-Gun production house, has continued his multimedia creations through San Francisco's Tinocorp, combining live-action performance with innovative digital graphics. Stokes gives new meaning to the music video, finding a future in its bold formal qualities and meaning in its application to the art of ingenious musicians. White notes, "Stokes is a master of collage-animation, featuring a keen political sense and infectious humor. "Come relish our proud presentation of this memorable, original artist.
