This is an exclusive sent to Invisible Movement thanks to the kind people from the Sneak Attack media: a 47-seconds clip of the 45 minute bonus interview with John on The Heart Is A Drum Machine DVD. And yes, 45 minutes, not 25 as previously said (many thanks to Tom who first pointed out this important difference).
Here's what John says in this excerpt, as transcribed by Chili_Pat (slightly corrected by Chris G and Jen):
"The thing that, the thing that makes it possible for one person to be in the right place at the right time in their life to create the things that they create... It has to do with a really complex, ehm, structure of the mind and the soul, and, and, and the nervous system and everything. Eh. All these unknown things that are taking place in a subconscious which, which can be just as much structure by terrible things as it can by good, you know. A person could be nothing but abused and put down their whole life and for whatever reason their, their will to, to live, their, their love for music, their, their feeling for music, ehm, and, and, and all, and all all the fucked up things that have happened to them, all, eh, all combine to make perfection."
And another FYI: Netflix version of the film DOES NOT contain the bonus features and therefore, you need the DVD to watch the interview.So, if you didn't get the DVD yet, I assume you're convinced now, order it here and support creative releases of its kind.
While we're at it, a couple of sites published their reviews of the film:
Exclaim.ca review
Twenty Four Bit review
The Playlist review
The Round Table online review
Wired review
If you know of any more reviews, do tell. And enjoy the video clip!

awesome!!!!! can't wait to see the whole thing!!!:D <3
Nice. Got mine this morning but didn't watch it yet.
Ehr, why am I getting a minus one for that? Funny.
he's so in touch with how art comes to be - it's amazing
He's gotten alot clearer in his speech
I was thinking he sounded REALLY good in this vid. I can't see it though after he says, um it cuts out.
I just noticed that too.
Anyone know if this is out in Europe yet or ever will be?
Or, if you order the american version, will it play on a macbook pro dvd?
So far, this is the only order link I know of and since nobody complained yet, I assume it plays well on anything and is probably region-free.
Do you know if it has spanish subtitles? Thanks
No, no subtitles at all, only spoken English.
Thanks again Iva
Gonna go place an order tomorrow, can't wait to see the interview, and the movie!
47 seconds well spent
It can be purchased on itunes.
does itunes have the 45min interview?
No, only the physical DVD does, as said in the text above.
My recent post Mala Distordiae
Where can i buy the dvd?
There's a link in the post you're replying to, but either way, here it is again: click here
I'm afraid to sound like an obsessed fangirl, but I want to be honest and say:
It's so nice to hear his voice again.
I will order it as soon as I understand how to do it. I've never really understood Amazon.com, for some reason it won't accept my address...
Just ordered it...this convinced me, despite the shippings charges.
The DVD is region free and will play worldwide.
Thanks for saving the day, Sky (again).
"The thing that, the thing that makes it possible for one person to be in the right place at the right time in their life to create the things that they create...

Eh.
All these annoying things that are taking place in a subconscious which, which can be just as much structure by terrible things as it can by good, you know.
A person could be nothing but abused and put down their whole life and for whatever reason their, their will to, to live, their, their love for music, their, their feeling for music, ehm, and, and, and all, and all the things that are happen to them, all, eh, all combine to make perfection."
I hope, it's correct. It mady my day...hand in hand with "Here, Air"
"annoying" should be "unknown".
Also makes more sense
Hey Chris,
I think you're right. I listen to it again and "unknown" works really better than "annoying". But it makes in an abstract way sense in both ways.
And Iva: Thanks for posting my transcription under the video. I'm feeling very honored
actually at the end he says "all the F'd up things that have happened", but it is edited out.
Thanks for spotting the error. I didn't even look at what I copied and pasted...had a busy day. >_<
Also, thanks to Chris for spotting the other one.
Thanks, I couldn't figured it out. But a John interview without a fuck? That's impossible :>
I know, I suck, but I want it perfect! :-b
Iva, it should be: "ehm, and, and, and all, and all the fucked up things" not "ehm, and, and, and all, and all all the fucked up things" - there's one "all" to much
nice blog article about this topic. this makes me ask a question though, so i dont really understand the relation of this topic and your entire website. it just doesnt fit in. But nontheless i found it very readable. Regards, Rizwan
Dude, it's a video with JOHN FRUSCIANTE in it. You know, JOHN FRUSCIANTE, the TOPIC of this page?
i bought the damn itunes version without checking this board first!
Oops. Looks like a spammer got through the filter...O_o
(Live HindiTV, not you...)
FYI: I just rented this through Blockbuster Online and it contains the full interview
Nvm, since I received the actual disc, it has the interview. It wasn't the downloadable version
I didn't know John started smoking again. I think it's fine, but it's just something that was interesting to learn.
