The Girona Party
A Festschrift for Jonathan Kaye has been published in December 2003 at Mouton. On April 24th, 2004, some friends and colleagues of his have gone dwon to Girona/ Catalunya where Jonathan lives in order to give him a copy - he was not aware that the book exists.
The local newspaper has published an article about the event (in Catalan), including a picture. You can download it here.
John Rennison has shot some videos, including the scene when we trapped Jonathan at a restaurant. You can download the videos at his website (watch out: very large files !)
