We are very pleased to invite you to the eleventh session of Kinu will be dedicated to the American artist Jeanne Liotta (New York, 1960). Her collages, performances and experimental films focus on scientific themes, which she approaches through observation, recording, recreation and the editing of phenomena that are perceptible to the naked eye.
Altered Images is an innovative and boundary-pushing experimental Film and Music Festival.

With a focus on expanded cinema, experimental sound, performance, inclusivity, feminism, and queer activism. Altered Images strives to push the boundaries of artistic expression. The showcase welcomes artists whose work embodies an experimental and innovative spirit. Through live music, projections, performances, and art installations.

Real-time cartographic improvisations using projected, manipulated digital maps by Eric Theise in collaboration with percussionists Darien Baiza and Paul Neidhardt. A visual wash of street grids, land masses, water bodies, and curiosities from built and natural environments. Driving beats. Orphaned labels and free-floating symbology. Auditory roundabouts and redirections. Saturated colors and the subtlest of tints. Sounds symphonic and screeching. Jittery zooms, pans, and traversals.
