“Congratulations! 🎉
We are delighted to choose A Kaddish for Bernie Madoff as 2021’s Jim Ewing Young Directors Award 🏆
Jim’s spirit of creative risk taking, curiosity in the light and dark complexities of human nature, and the use of artistic processes to grapple with and express our own complexities is so beautifully present in this film. The expert genre-blending of song, memoir, documentary, narrative, and animated storytelling is impressive, and makes for a refreshing, utterly charming, and vibrant fantasy, all of which is grounded in serious, poignant, and heartfelt reality. All this - in addition to the unique challenges of adapting a stage play into film, on top of maneuvering during a global pandemic - make for an exceptionally impressive first feature-length film. Thank you, Alicia, for sharing your marvelous work with us.” - programmers Port Townsend Film Festival

Gosh that’s pretty! 🏆💗🌺Just delivered - our first award for A Kaddish for Bernie Madoff ⭐️⭐️ Thanks so much to the wonderful folx Ashland Independent Film Festival and every member of the audience for this fabulous recognition! ⭐️ Alicia Jo Rabins, your vulnerable true story traveled thru the wild imagination of director Alicia J. Rose and the magical production skills of Lara Cuddy to become this unique and beloved feature film! Extra gratitude to our entire cadre of cast/crew/supporters - you helped make an award winning film and it feels so good!
Gishiki was released 4 years ago (yesterday) and I was thinking back about the creation of that album, and how it prompted me to learn to play the Japanese koto, which lead me to doing live quadraphonic performances on the west coast featuring koto and live modular. I got to collab with Fiona Stoltze who created amazing shibori-dyed fabric for the furoshiki-wrapped limited edition CDs and with Natalia Rudychev who composed some lovely haiku for each song. I commissioned a video for "Meiyo" from director Alicia J. Rose Productions + Photography who shot lovely scenes at the Portland Japanese Garden . I hope this music brought you as much joy as it brought me making it. Here's the video and you can of course get the album here: https://symbionproject.bandcamp.com/album/gishiki
