Light Cone presents the 11th edition of Scratch Expanded (Paris 13th), a biennial event dedicated to expanded cinema – a cinematic form that breaks free from traditional theatrical projection, bringing together various moving image practices such as multi-screen projection, performance, and installation.

The various techniques and devices highlighted in this edition (35mm projector, slides, cathode ray tube, "archeoscope", stroboscopic light, etc.) will allow for a great diversity of cinematic experiences with a common interest in deconstructing the original medium.

From the reenactment of a pioneering expanded cinema work conceived in the 1950s to contemporary reflexions on pre-cinema technologies, this edition's guest artists explore different facets of the powers of the cinematic apparatus. In parallel, open-air screenings of 16mm and 35mm films will take place in the Voûtes garden.

The guest artists are Esperanza Collado & OJOBOCA, Jan Kulka, Alexandra Moralesová & Georgy Bagdasarov (Labodoble), Liz Rácz and Sofi Urbani.

Drinks and food available on site.
