Via Martin Iles:
'Hey y'all.
Showing videos at Dan’s Silverleaf this Sunday. Video of a French dandy picking pockets, an awesome short photo barrage of house facades, and a live music footage of 35 early 80s punk, New Wave, and post punk bands.
Starts promptly at 10:30PM, and it's free.
Because I love you, I will have a cheeseburger-shaped cake from Kroger for you to eat. First come, first serve, y'all.
Spread the word, and come out if this shit interests you.

Live television footage of master pickpocket Henri Kassagi entertaining (and playfully stealing) from an audience in the round from the French circus television program “Star Spangled Track” in 1962. Kassagi was a professional thief who later used the skills he developed in the underworld of Tunisia to become a magician. Kassagi was also a crime consultant for films (including Robert Bresson’s 1959 film Pickpocket).
WHIRR
Timo Katz, 2006 (2 min 23 sec.)

With music by Japanese duo Fonica.
