Inkfolk Thursday 4/12/2014 Open from 6pm with Exhibition of Photography by Chris Platt. Turned right at the end of the street. Fourteen years ago Chris Platt left Hebden Bridge to head overseas, picking up an MA in photojournalism along the way. In ‘turned right at the end of the street’ Chris presents a selection of images from Japan, Thailand, Azerbaijan, London, and Iraq. Then from 8pm Inkfolk and Gezellig present John Carpenters sci-fi film Dark Star with a live re-score by Animat £4 entry film starts at 9pm Dark Star, John Carpenter’s first feature is widely regarded as a cult classic and a seminal influence on 21st century sci-fi. Co-written by and starring Alien Screenwriter Dan O’Bannon, this 1970s low budget space comedy has found its place in the science fiction pantheon as the missing link between 2001: A Space Odyssey and Red Dwarf. Animat have developed a new soundtrack to the film which they perform live using a mixture of their own original brand of dubby downtempo, an eclectic selection of tracks from their DJ archive and remixed versions of themes from the original score. Sheffield-based musicians, producers and DJs Mark Daly and Michael Harding, aka The Only Michael, have been working together as Animat since 2004 and have released six EPs and two albums on the Big Chill label. Their previous film re-scores have included The straight story, The last Man on earth and Belleville Rendezvous, which sold out at both Gezellig nights at the Trades Cub and Picture house for the Arts Festival and even had the Mayor of Hebden Bridge in attendance. animat.co.uk
