The Heart is a Drum Machine

(Christopher Pomerenke, USA, 2009, Beta-SP, 70 min)

Join us for the premiere screening of this new documentary that explores the profound connection people have to music, its involvement in our daily lives and its role in shaping human history. The film features interviews with musicians including Britt Daniel (Spoon), Janet Weiss (Sleater-Kinney), Isaac Brock (Modest Mouse), Jimmy Tamborello (The Postal Service), John Doe (X), the Dandy Warhols, Maynard James Keenan (Tool, A Perfect Circle), Los Lobos, Kimya Dawson, and the Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players. Music historians, writers and scientists weigh in on our complex and critical relationship with music. The Flaming Lips Steven Drozd created an original score for the film, as well as collaborating with Maynard James Keenan on a cover of Elton Johns Rocket Man. Director Christopher Pomerenke and producer Ryan Page of ZU33 (producers of music documentaries including 2006s acclaimed Moog) will be in attendance.
