  • Xcèntric: Let Your Light Shine

    By on

    This collection of films by Jodie Mack investigates the formal principles of abstract cinema while maturing an interest in found materials, evolving modes of production, forms of labor, and the role of decoration in daily life. Prodding at hierarchies of aesthetic value and the tension between high and low, these works question the role of abstract animation in a post-psychedelic climate.

    Jodie Mack in person.

  • Landscapes of Resistance, Time and Ecology

    By on

    MARETIOPA & HICCUP present the film program Landscapes of Resistance, Time and Ecology, focusing on phenomenon occurring through changes of perspective and animated camera movements as a way to redefine a place and its geography. The method is a frame-by-frame-camera 'animation' where the films works with displacements of time, space and focal points, sometimes with many disparate motifs, or the same places filmed during different times of a day in order to visualize weather and light changes, addressing a political/ecological environment to agenda. The result is an interaction between the predictable mechanistic nature of technology and the unpredictable qualities of the natural world.

  • End of the World hits Haida Gwaii

    By on

    Presented with the task of making a film about the End of the World using a limited supply of black and white print stock: the sea levels rise, the magnetic poles switch, we face the mortality of ourselves and those we love and question ideas of identity, representation and time itself.

  • OFFoff Cinema: Still Moving, an exposition about diafilms

    By on

    With its focus on slide film, a medium for which slides are driven through one or more slide carousels, OFFoff’s exhibition Still Moving explores the boundaries of the film medium. Slide film is situated somewhere in the twilight zone where photo, film and experiment meet, calling to mind film classics such as Chris Marker’s La Jetée.

    With this program Camporesi, an Italian researcher based in Paris, continues to focus on the French “experimental” or “artist” films of the period from the viewpoint of their special relationship to artists and works from the US and Canada.

  • MuMaBoX #49 - From one moment to another: Rose Lowder

    By on

    "A moment is an area of limited time, but very special because it is based on facts that characterize it as singular. There is perhaps nothing better than trying to film a moment to realize the great difficulty of transmitting it on a screen. Overall tonight's movies were edited in the camera during filming to create visual moments from a succession of images appearing on the screen simultaneously.

    Wednesday, October 12, 2016 - 18:00 to Thursday, October 13, 2016 - 17:55

    Venue: 

  • VIDEO – (Im)materialists

    By on

    Presented by Evelyn Yard, VIDEO is a screening event highlighting the specific use of video by contemporary artists. The programme focuses less on the polished "moving-image" production, and more on experimentation and the use of more accessible popular video technologies. The screenings will highlight areas where video has been used for its specific characteristics, opening up the rising debate of medium specificity in and around ideas of post-media hybridisation.
