Greetings Everyone!
Global Voice Foundation has added a group of Allies to advise us as we go forward. Today, we’d love to introduce: Jim Jarmusch, film director, writer, musician, producer, and artist. A prominent figure in independent cinema, his notable films include Stranger than Paradise (1984), Down By Law (1986), Dead Man (1999), Broken Flowers (2005), Only Lovers Left Alive (2013) Paterson (2016). His book Some Collages was published by Anthology 2021.
Through his instagram account, Jim will be helping us a launch a few videos about our work with Radio France’s Radio Ndjoku in the Central African Republic. Radio Ndjoku broadcasts thirty years of recordings that Jim’s best friend, Louis Sarno Jim Jarmusch remembers Louis made while living amongst the BaAka. The original recordings are held in keeping with Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford. Max Bale of Radio France re-digitilized a group of recordings from the late 1980’s in a box in Amsterdam found by one of Louis’ old roommates!
