Dan Deacon-Hilvarenbeek



Dan Deacon and Jimmy Joe Roche have produced a short film for Glocal, a project exploring the notion of a post-global village. The idea that local and the global are ever becoming one, that technological evolution has made location less relevant, is near and dear to The Somethin' Else. Such was the impetus for The Somethin' Else #7 (Virtual Vittles), where your humble author attemped to generate all-inclusive communitas online, with hopes of reification in rituals worldwide. In Deacon's film, pastoral remnants of the old world mingle with the present in a postmodern Medieval Times gone wild. Check it out!
