El cine de Daïchi Saïto nace del trabajo artesanal y el procesado a mano de la imagen fotoquímica, con el fin de crear una experiencia vital con la que el espectador imagine otros mundos perceptivos e interiores. Saïto estudió literatura y filosofía en Estados Unidos e hindi y sánscrito en la India, y vive y trabaja en Montreal, donde es cofundador del colectivo Double Negative.
During this presentation we show the legendary Outer and Inner Space by Andy Warhol in its original form, this means with two 16mm projectors and two screens. This epic work contains all the Warholian artistic elements: fame, the portrait, repetion, the reproduction of images... intertwined with Warhol's film work, which turns this film into a selfconscious performance, a homemade Warhol superstar that thus provides commentary on the star system itself. Edie Sedgwick sits next to a monitor that plays a video of her head, while she talks to herself.

SHORT CIRCUIT is a new film night screening short experimental documentaries selected from an open call. Short Circuit shows films with an unconventional approach, works that are distinctly artist films, but still inherently linked to the roots of documentary.
There is a rolling call for submissions. We’re currently programming for two forthcoming screenings ‘On Camera’ & ‘50 Years On’. Deadline 26th March
Two rarely seen videos highlight the impact of language, translation, and silence in the work of American artists Mike Kelley and Ryan Trecartin. Kelley’s silent, two-fold video Test Room… and A Dance… jumps between protocols of scientific animal study and modernist choreography in a surreal laboratory environment. A unique version of Trecartin’s The Re'Search (Re'Search Wait’S) made for a 2014 exhibition at the Ullens Center for Contemporary Art in Beijing premieres here for the first time outside China.
Directors Lounge Screening presents a collaborative project of twenty independent, experimental filmmakers: The Space Between Cities. Presented by Berlin Filmmaker Insa Langhorst.
Last year, Salise Hughes founder of EXcinema, Seattle, commissioned an exceptional project to bring together filmmakers, resulting in twenty films by international experimental filmmakers spread across four continents which were then combined as one feature length road film. The Spaces Between Cities is a collaboration made in the form of an exquisite corpse. Each film connects randomly to the next by way of a series of prompts creating a continuous road trip, or journey that will connect these different parts of the world.

The Loop Collective and Arraymusic co-present an informal screening of recent digital videos by Colin Clark. These durational videos quietly sound the cinematic technicity of the sea, trees, plants, animals, and people.
This event continues our series of screenings in 2016 celebrating the Loop Collective's 20th anniversary.

Urban Research Istanbul Berlin presents short films between experimental and documentary exploring the public sphere in different cities. In collaboration with curator Burak Cevik from Istanbul we show films which deal in very personal ways with current and with historical urban developments and their problems.
The very personal point of view of the different filmmakers makes it possible to create a relation between different places and times, between the disappearance of old quarters, the violence that families have to endure in kurdish areas, the circumstance that led to the self-immolation of a turkish immigrant in Germany, and the juxtaposition of the story of Jewish family in Italy during WW2 against the backdraft of Italo-Fascist Architecture in Rome.

Definida por Scott MacDonald como poderosa e inusual en sus efectos emocionales, Rolls: 1971 invita a los espectadores a participar en el proceso siempre en curso de hacer la vida humana más genuina y más satisfactoria. Es la culminación más eficaz de Robert Huot de crear un cine interesante y bello sin llegar a ser inaccesible.
Impartido por Mark Street, cineasta y profesor de producción de video y cine en el Visual Art Department at Fordham University-Lincoln Center.
¿Cómo yuxtaponer el ruido y el lenguaje visual? Vamos a usar sonido grabado e imágenes creadas en el taller para con eso crear piezas cortas en las que el sonido y las imágenes “funcionan juntas como un relevo” (Robert Bresson).

During the retrospective on Agnes Varda in Cinematek Brussels, Offoff introduces Varda's obscure transatlantic counterpart: Chick Strand, along with Bruce Baille co-founder of the legendary Canyon Cinema, but above all, film maker. She was a pioneer in mixing experimental film with documentary cinema and each time she managed to confirm the flexibility of the human mind.
We present an overview of her oeuvre, both the etnographic experiments and the more lyrical works. Ranging from her early films, such as Anselmo, a Mexican child she repeatedly portrayed, to Soft Fiction, recently declared the peak of cinema from the late 70's by Tate. Here it is the feminine sensuality that is confirmed in its obstinance.
