Olsen returns to the Hyde Park Picture House with a free late night offering of avant-garde film, plus music, tea and homemade cake. The evening will feature two hours of rarely seen and little known pieces of experimental film history by the likes of Gunvor Nelson, Standish Lawder, Malcolm Le Grice, Ernst Schmidt jr, Christopher Maclaine and Saul Levine; alongside vibrant new work by Greg Pope, Jeanne Liotta, Steve Reinke, Steve Roden, Fred Worden, Mark Fell and Stephen Sutcliffe. Expect bagpipes, repetition, flickering, fluxus, curtains, cartoons, minimalism, night skies, gravestones, repetition, luminance, silence and swearing.

Beforehand and during the interval, tea and cake will be served and Verdine Etoria (guitar), Alex Hannan (violin - 7 Hertz) and Dave Kane (double bass - LIMA) will provide musical interludes.
