The Loop Collective is pleased to celebrate our 20th anniversary this year with a series of events designed to highlight our collective's history and development. Since our inception in 1996 with four members, Loop has contributed a significant role to Toronto's experimental filmmaking community through many programming endeavours and touring events from our 30+ cumulative members over the course of the past two decades.
 
We invite you to join us on Thursday February 4, 2016, at Innis Town Hall, for the launch of a newly self-published monograph, featuring essays by Kelly Egan, Izabella Pruska-Oldenhof, R. Bruce Elder, Kathryn Elder, and a chart by John Porter, alongside posters, photographs and artist pages. This limited edition publication will be available with our recent DVD, Selected Works by the Loop Collective, distributed via CFMDC and Re:Voir.

The Factory Media Centre is proud to present the work of Toronto-based filmmaker, photographer and media artist Dan Browne. Browne has been producing films and videos for over 10 years that examine our contemporary relationships to technological and natural environments through densely kinetic audio-visual patterned forms. His most recent video works traverse the fertile territories and intersections between cinema, video installation, music, photography, painting and poetry and have been presented in a range of venues, including festivals, concerts, galleries, and public spaces.

For his first-ever solo show, Browne will present a selection of his recent works in person, followed by a unique two-hour live performance of "memento mori", featuring musician collaborators Dan Driscoll and Steve Richman, that will rework material from the film to create an astonishing and singular live cinematic event.
