    Millennium Film Workshop
    66 East 4th Street, New York NY 10003

    Cinema 16 presents an evening of avant-garde films with live musical scores in encore performances from past Cinema 16 events, in an evening to benefit the esteemed media arts center, Millennium Film Workshop.

    The evening will include Brooklyn-based, minimal synth trio FORMA (Mark Dwinell, Sophie Lam, George Bennett) performing to Maya Deren's At Land, Brooklyn-based sound artist NICK YULMAN with the 1927 film by Charley Bowers A Wild Roomer, ABLEHEARTS (Brooklyn sound and video artist THOMAS ARSENAULT) performing to Kihachiro Kawamoto's "Dojoji Temple," and singer and artist JOSEPH KECKLER with Busby Berkeley's Gold Diggers of 1935

    Melding the worlds of art, music, and film, curator Molly Surno aims to recreate the silent film era, and resurrect the communal performance experience. Bands are invited to compose a musical score in order to modernize the tradition of a live music accompanying films during the 1920s. Cinema 16 initially began in 1947 as a New York based avant-garde film society; now over four decades later, Surno is bringing the spirit of Cinema 16 back to be experienced by a new generation of filmgoers.

    Michael Brynntrup is an artist and filmmaker who has been probing the limits of independent, personal and experimental film since the 80's. Very early in his art career, he started off with Super-8 films, but soon experimented with multiple projections and collaborations with other artists. With „Jesus, der Film“ his collaboration took the form of a „cadavre exquis“, the joint product of a number of directors who only saw part of the work of their collegues, but who all were asked to have Brynntrup play the main character, Jesus. The resulting feature-long film became a legend, while little later, Brynntrup also became a well known director in the gay-and-lesbian cinema movement. His goal, however, was to never become monopolized by a certain scene, and thus, since his start, he has strived for a diversity of themes and genres in his work. Still, we can find the repeated and ongoing questions of the identity of the self, the questions, how the roles we play in society are being defined by gender and sexual orientation, and how the mirror of the other, and the mirror of death influences our lives. Last but not least, the artist adresses the question how much of an impact the mirror of media does have.
