for 2009.

This Is Experimental is an annual festival of experimental and avant-
garde film that began at the New Zealand Film Archive in 2008.
Following last years screenings by UK and New Zealand film-makers,
this years focus is on Australia.
Dirk de Bruyn and Abject Leader are at the forefront of contemporary
Australian artists' cinema, bringing performance and improvisation
into a medium better known for static, self-effacing projection. Both
acts revolve around the multiple projection of 16mm film, and the
intervention with an array of lenses, custom-made devices and
improvised sonic expression.
This is Experimental 2009 features live performances by both acts and
a rare screening of Australian experimental film classics from
1962-1998 entitled Isolationist Eye Openers: Historic Australian Film
Art 1962-1998.
All events $8 / $6.
This is Experimental: Australian Film Art on tour in New Zealand June
11-13 2009 has been made possible with the support of the Australian
High Commission
