Media / Is that a name of a bird?

« on: June 19, 2008, 10:35:12 AM »

that's a question a boy from EL asked me when i told him i was shooting a doccie on INTONJANE...
That Jomo asked me what INTONJANE is, is fine- but to a**ume that it could mean a name of a bird is questionable...I don't think i would drive down to the EC from CT to shoot a doccie about a bird. Don't get me wrong birds are lovely creatures.

I'm glad that young South Africans (esp blck ones) are asking questions...i guess this is how our history will eventually be re-written- from asking damning questions...but they must just ask the right ones...

Tuesday night i watched one of the ZABALAZA doccies on SABC 1, it made for interesting viewing...very rich and relevant content- that dope( well of course it was mainly talking heads... )- the subject was Language...a thorny subject these days...the makers of these doccies must have asked the right questions for they got very good responses...bad part about it is how i checked that our culture as indigenous people of SA is getting so emaciated to the point that in a decade it might just be dead- (NOT IF YOU CAN HELP IT THO)
Word is according to a linguist there : 'when you forget your language, you forget your culture...and when you forget your culture... you perish...but the question i want to ask then: what do we do with those who can't speak a stitch of their mother tounges?

WORLD PREMIÈRE
Lost Prophets South Africa 2007 80min
Dir: Dylan Valley, Sean Drummond

In 1989, during the final putsch for democracy, the Cape Town hip-hop group Prophets of da City (POC) burst onto the scene with their hard-hitting South Africanised hip-hop. This local retro-doc asks, ‘where are they now?’ and looks back at the trajectory that catapulted a tight, clean crew to stardom, only to let them fall into relative and separate obscurity. To a hoppin’ soundtrack, Ready D, Jazmo, Ramone, Gogga, Ismael and manager Lance Stehr, discuss the personal impact the band had ‘back in the day’, as do Zola, Mr Fat and DJ Azhul. They reminisce on the importance of rapping for democracy, the prophetic nature of politicised lyrics, the impact of being banned, break-dancing in Paris and making it big. POC’s lyrics are still relevant and this film demands that they get a second airing.

Actually the usernames are very interesting- i've always been fascinated with names, and currently am looking for a pseudoname to use in film...
