For John Tindle and Michi Meko, their latest exhibit titled “Paper Chase” is about “cleaning the taps and letting it come out better,” Tindle said.
“Paper Chase,” presented by Space: 8 Gallery on West King Street, is the collaborative work of TindleMichi, Atlanta artists John Tindle and Michi Meko, who are also known as the “Two fat southern boys who paint.”
TindleMichi is contemporary art, just a little dirtier, a lot more attitude and more relevant to modern Southern society, the artists said.
You may know him from his roles in blockbusters such as George McFly in “Back to The Future”, the Knave of “Hearts in Alice in Wonderland”, or the main villain in “Charlie’s Angels”. Or you may recognize him for his smaller roles in cult films like “Rivers Edge” and “Willard”. However, Crispin Glover not only acts in films, he creates them as well with his own funds and vision.
Glover will be screening his slideshow and films Feb. 18 and 19 at the Sunray Theater, “It is Fine!” in Gainesville at the Hippodrome on the 21st and “It is Fine!” in Orlando at the Enzian on the 22nd.

With only minutes to spare, Gunner Hughes, Rob Schanz and Austin Weeks cannot even afford to sit down to speak, as all of them are loading trucks, assembling lights and remixing songs before heading out for the first ever Meltdown Tour.
The idea of Meltdown began around last February, when Weeks, a Flagler College alumnus, and Hughes, a Flagler College junior, saw the need to bring something different to St. Augustine, Fla.

The St. Augustine Film Festival brought us to our “happy” place this past weekend with a film by Roko Belic. “Happy” is an award-winning documentary that brings its audience around the world, trying to figure out the answer to what makes us humans happy.
The idea for this feel good film came from director Tom Shadyac (“Bruce Almighty,” “Liar, Liar”). He became interested in the science of happiness after reading an article in The New York Times about Americans being unhappy, regardless of their wealth. While sitting in his mansion somewhere outside of L.A., he got in contact with Belic and told him his idea for a documentary.
What a great idea it turned out to be.
