    ...... ...... ..Buy the Region 2 DVD HERE.. ...... ......Buy the Region 4 DVD HERE.... ......Jamie Catto is now on Twitter.. ..http://twitter.com/jamiecatto...... .. ...... ............ ........ ..After nearly four years the new 1 Giant Leap project, currently titled 'What About Me' has been handed over by Duncan Bridgeman and Jamie Catto. Twelve films and twleve tracks about "...all the different ways we're mad...desperate, obsessed, neurotic, fixated...the insane ways we make ourselves unhappy..."....When Jamie Catto and Duncan Bridgeman joined forces to create the project 1 Giant Leap, they embarked upon a global journey that included Senegal, Ghana, South Africa, Uganda, India, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand, America and Europe, equipped solely with a digital video camera, a laptop and a vision - to capture and weave together a unique fusion of sound, image and spoken word from some of the world's most happening musicians, authors, scientists and thinkers and to explore 'The Unity in the Diversity'. ....Their treasure hunt brought many unexpected collaborations with such inspirations as Michael Stipe, Kurt Vonnegut, Tom Robbins, Dennis Hopper, Brian Eno, Asha Bhosle, and Baaba Maal. The resulting double-Grammy nominated DVD consists of 11 short films - INSPIRATION, MONEY, FAITH, SEX, DEATH, CONFRONTATION, TIME, BLASPHEMY, UNITY, MASKS, HAPPY, and 30 behind the scenes movies. You might have seen 'The Making Of 1 Giant Leap' which has been broadcast globally by National Geographic Channel. Or perhaps you've seen them playing live with their 10 piece band and cinema screens. .. ....Trailer to the What About Me? series - Available on DVD and being broadcast.......... ..Buy the Region 2 (European) DVD HERE.. ...... ......Buy the Region 4 (Australian) DVD HERE.... ...... ....Australia ..ABC2 - Wednesday Nights 8pm from 31st December 2008 for 7 weeks.... .. ....Series Trailer........ ............ .. .. .. .. .. .. ........The trailer to Chapter 1 ..BOMBARDMENT...... .............. .. .. .. .. .. ..........Trailer to Chapter 2 ..Wounded...... .............. .. .. .. .. .. ..........Trailer to Chapter 3..Men & Women........ .. .. .. .. .. ..........Trailer to Chapter 4..Love and Need ........ .. .. .. .. .. ..........Trailer to Chapter 5..The Wanting and the Freedom...... .. .. .. .. .. .. ........Trailer to Chapter 6 ..
