Radio On Craig Baldwin
Live interview with legendary American experimental filmmaker, Craig Baldwin, currently in Berlin touring with his newest film, Mock Up On Mu, a fictional story based heavily on the real facts of the lives of L. Ron Hubbard, Marjorie Cameron, Lockheed Martin, Aleister Crowley, and Jack Parsons.
Baldwin uses “found” footage from the fringes of popular consciousness as well as images from the mass media to undermine and transform the traditional documentary, infusing it with the energy of high-speed montage and a provocative commentary that targets subjects from intellectual property rights to rampant consumerism.

The BBC gave the Feature Creature a mention:
"Among the most spectacular events to be staged in the UK (for World Book Day)
was the mounting of a giant helium filled model at London's Tate
Modern museum. The model showed a pair of eyes and six metre long
lips reading out loud".
as did Lycos News Channel & London Tonight:
"The promotion is part of a range of events held across the country
to mark the biggest ever World
Book Day. Perhaps the most spectacular is the giant helium filled
model of a pair of eyes and six metre long lips seen reading out loud
at London's Tate
Modern museum."
