interview project

If the work of David Lynch has ever intrigued you I recommend checking out his recent work, Interview Project. The online venture features Lynch's "team," which is a group of filmmakers led by his son Austin, interviewing Americans that the group met during their 20,000 miles-in-70 days trek across the fruited plain. The Project will release a new interview every three days for a year; it was launched Monday.

Jess, the Project's first interview, was discovered while "waiting for his trailer to be repaired so that he could go live alone in the desert." If Jess and episode 41's T.J., who is featured in this preview on VBS.tv, are any indication, the subjects of Interview Project could have slipped from a David Lynch film. Think of Project as This American Life meets Lost Highway.

Check it out.
