Last Friday we told you about a short film called Reflections on Kid A being part of the Noise Pop Film Festival in San Franicisco on March 2, 2002.
Here’s the description from Noise Pop:
RADIOHEAD – REFLECTIONS ON KID A
Radiohead’s lead singer Thom Yorke gives a rare interview, interspersed with full-length live clips. The reclusive, private singer talks in-depth about the creative process, Kid A itself and the fallout from their massive hit LP OK Computer.
Dir. Rob Hodselmans, Netherlands 2000, 38 min.
Channel V in Australia will also be showing the interview on February 6, 2002 at 9pm.

Googly Minotaur 2001-2002
From Capitol Records:
Some will remember him as a wise man. Others will say he was loyal, dependable and always there for the public. Some (sad, lonely folks) will mourn the loss of what might potentially have been their only friend. Yes, January 31st marks the end of an era…well…a year…er, half a year… for one of the 21st century’s greatest “buddies.”
We’d like to be able to tell you Googly will be going on a brief sabbatical, that he’s merely wintering in Florida where he’s been spotted on the golf course sipping pina coladas… but alas we have been forced to cut off life support this Thursday, January 31st.
Pay your respects to Googly today by IM’ing him your final well wishes. After Thursday, you may send your condolences to the bereaved at freegoogly@hollywoodandvine.com.
Wow!
You can now view the video made by Johnny Hardstaff for both “Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors” and “Like Spinning Plates” at the Hollywood and Vine Radiohead site. Just click the “video” link at the top and select the video at the bottom.

Upcoming RH book
We received the following email from Joseph Tate, who is compiling some essays about Radiohead:
Limited information on the collection of essays I am editing on Radiohead is now available here:

Dettmar, editor of _Reading Rock and Roll_, an essay by Paul Lansky, the professor at Princeton whose music is sampled on “Idioteque,” and the artwork of Stanley Donwood.
Currently, the collection does not yet have a definite publisher. I am in contact with several presses and once I have more details, I will post them on my web site at:
