"Aryan Kaganof is arguably South Africa’s most
versatile and resilient cultural activist. He is an eclectic film-maker,
novelist, poet, fine artist and an indefatigable blogger.
Kaganof worked
in Holland (where he also studied feature film direction, et al) at the Dutch Anti-Apartheid Movement as a researcher
activist. In 1996 he pioneered the use of digital video as a feature film
medium with the transfer to 35mm NAAR DE KLOTE! (Wasted!).
In 2000 a
retrospective of his films was held at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in
San Francisco where he was also Artist in Residence. In 2005 he shot the
world’s first feature film made on a mobile phone camera, SMS SUGAR MAN.
In
2008 he was a Visiting Professor at K3 Malmo University (Sweden). He continues
to orchestrate award-winning documentaries and films. He has published about 30
books comprising general fiction, short stories, poetry, non-fiction, and
philosophy.
Aryan Kaganof
has published many intriguing novels like Hectic,
Cortado, Laduma and Uselessly. In
this his very latest work, he creatively unleashes his apocalyptic vision in
splendid, if disturbing undulations..." (blurb)
