Il a réinventé à lui seul l’esthétique du New American Cinema en utilisant une technique de caméra discrète pour capter la vie éblouissante et secrète de nos forêts en voie de disparition. Son cinéma transmet au spectateur le poids oppressant d’une beauté sublime et accorde une attention particulière aux éléments du monde naturel, que la plupart des gens considèrent comme un arrière-plan, à travers une série de variations musicales. Les poèmes de Tessa Day furent sa plus grande inspiration. Ce programme, intitulé Matters of Life and Death, est issu d’une projection au Boston Paramount Theatre en avril 2018, et qui fut la dernière apparition publique de Robert Todd. Nous avons choisi d’ajouter trois films profondément personnels, à ce programme, qui permettront de mieux comprendre l’esprit de l’artiste. Ils révèlent les développements récents dans la vie de l’auteur: majoritairement montés à même la caméra et présentés dans un ordre correspondant à une année de tribulations. // 6 films | 77 min SPRING SONGS États-Unis | 2017 | 14 min | sans paroles MATTERS OF LIFE AND DEATH États-Unis | 2017 | 12 min | sans paroles NATURAL ORDER États-Unis | 2017 | 11 min | sans paroles FANTASIES États-Unis | 2017 | 13 min | sans paroles EXILE États-Unis | 2018 | 13 min | sans paroles GEMS États-Unis | 2018 | 14 min | sans paroles ** BILLET EN VENTE À PARTIR DU 25 SEPT. // TICKETS IN SALE STARTING SEPT 25 ** --------- 10/6 San Francisco, California: Other Cinema http://www.othercinema.com/ <https://hi-beam.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e4e99825c1d97f8de6eaffad3&id=e3e40c95cb&e=f36020cad0> 8 PM, 992 Valencia Street LO-FI-PSY-FI-GEO: E. DAVIS' "JACK PARSONS" + J. BERMAN'S "EARTHLINGS" World-renown fringe religion scholar Erik Davis materializes into our cine-séance with an inside report on the Man of the Hour, Jack Whiteside Parsons, the OTO sorcerer/inventor who founded the JPL, spread wide the words of Aleister Crowley, incidentally catalyzed the cult of L. Ron Hubbard’s Scientology, and, with New Age matriarch Marjorie Cameron, brought Thelemic sex-magick into California parlance. Author of Techgnosis, The Visionary State, and Nomad Codes, Davis lets sparkle his crown of occult expertise, as he here flips through clips of Parsons’ presence in contemporary film and TV, including Ridley Scott’s Strange Angel, Craig Baldwin’s Mock Up On Mu, et al. CO-FEATURED is journeyman Jonathan (Commune) Berman, energizing a rapt audience with the theatrical premiere of his mind-bending Calling All Earthlings, seeded by another SoCal desert wizard, George Van Tassel. A Hughes Aircraft engineer who ”dropped out” of the industry, built the Integratron (without nails!) and his own airfield at Giant Rock, and initiated the post-War UFO craze, Van Tassel serves as a sympathetic protagonist for Berman’s multi-faceted essay, a phantastic philmic freak-show that generously affirms ”alternative” beliefs and the multiplicity of West Coast cosmologies.

Main Street THE GUESTS, BY KEN JACOBS Los Angeles Filmforum, Acropolis Cinema, REDCAT, LACMA, and 3-D SPACE present The Guests, by Ken Jacobs. Los Angeles premiere, with Ken & Flo Jacobs in person! Ken Jacobs has been concerned with the exploration of stereoscopic phenomena since the mid 1960s. He has experimented with a number of 3D techniques, and has developed ways to infuse his 2D work with heightened illusions of depth. The Guests, which has existed previously as a slide installation and an anaglyph video, will be presented tonight in its final incarnation: as a digital 3D spectacle. Continuing the work started with Tom, Tom the Piper’s Son, Ken Jacobs revisits an early Lumière Brothers film, Entree d’une noce à l’église (1896). As we watch the congregation mounting the steps of a Parisian church, our attention is drawn to the smallest of details: from the grain of the image to the facial gestures of the long-dead guests to the city landscape behind them. Ken Jacobs does more than extend the time (and space) of the original footage: he invites us to see in a way that we have never seen before.

This pre-Stonewall action is recognized as a significant milestone in queer and transgender political activism. In celebration of this designation—the first legally recognized municipal transgender district in the world—San Francisco Cinematheque is proud to present INFRARED, four nights of experimental films by and about transgender, nonbinary and gender nonconforming artists curated by transgender filmmaker Malic Amalya. Full series details available here. Kairos Dirt and the Errant Vacuum (2017) by Madsen Minax; digital video, color, sound, 90 minutes Through dreamscapes, television monitors, radio frequencies and orifices a queer middle school lunch lady, a non-binary student and an astrologer/life coach/phone sex operator discover a fantastic and carnal alternate dimension occupied by a genderless apparition. (Malic Amalya) Kairos Dirt and the Errant Vacuum follows the strange happenings of two middle school lunch ladies, an androgynous student, a lesbian hospice provider, a grieving ministry worker, a mystical mortician and an astrologer/life coach/phone sex operator. Through a series of collective dreams an otherworldly being invades the characters’ dream spaces, revealing an alternate realm of wanton, subconscious desires. Amid the postindustrial decay of the American south, interconnected relationships unfold in unusual and fantastical landscapes as television monitors, radio frequencies, orifices and dreams all become portals to access this alternate dimension of carnality and desire. I wanted to make a film that examined ideas of nonlinear time, youth, growth and death within a framework of sexuality and desire. I wanted to focus around the erotic aspects of consumption, using dreamscapes, alternate realities and magical realism to do so. I wanted to make a queer film that showed differently sized bodies, trans and gender ambiguous bodies engaging beyond the politics of queerness. As a trans and queer person, this desire was not only personal, but deeply political. Most importantly, I wanted to do this in a way in which these issues were not isolated, but fluid, floating in a larger mix of seemingly ordinary and extraordinary human struggles. Kairos Dirt… successfully interrogates many complex themes through the blending of cinematic narrative trajectory and visual tactics from video art and experimental cinema.

DEATH IN THE FORENOON (1934/66, 2 min, 35mm) CANARIES (1969, 4 min, 35mm) & FILM PORTRAIT (1971, 81 min, 35mm) A pioneering work in autobiographical cinema, FILM PORTRAIT masterfully combines actual and staged footage and painting over images. Filmmaker, painter, and composer Jerome Hill was born into the famous James J. Hill railroad-building family and lived on the same street as F. Scott Fitzgerald. Here he re-creates wonderfully - with old family footage - the period and milieu of the American upper class at the beginning of the 20th century. Total running time: ca. 90 min. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 13, 2018 10/13 Brooklyn, NY United States: Light Industry http://www.lightindustry.org/ <https://hi-beam.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e4e99825c1d97f8de6eaffad3&id=630d0e349d&e=f36020cad0> 7:30 PM, 155 Freeman St LAURA MULVEY PRESENTS NELLY KAPLAN'S A VERY CURIOUS GIRL A Very Curious Girl, Nelly Kaplan, 1969, digital projection, 107 mins Introduced by Laura Mulvey In her first feature film, Nelly Kaplan tells the story of Marie (Bernadette Lafont), the despised outcast of a small French village, who turns the tables on its hypocritical authority figures. Marie accumulates power over her former tormentors—unable to resist her, forced to pay for sex with her—ultimately exerting an explosive revenge at the village’s Sunday Mass. Kaplan’s brutal satire of French village life and Marie’s escape from it were understood as deeply subversive by the censors: it was only through the director's personal and forceful intervention that the film was grudgingly awarded an 18+ certificate. A Very Curious Girl is filmed with exuberant music and color, contrasting the drabness of the village with Marie’s flamboyant lifestyle. As she decorates her woodland surroundings with the consumer goods she buys from catalogs, Marie creates an animistic shrine, evoking the ancient powers of the witch and also her contempt for values of all kinds. The original French title, La Fiancée du pirate (The Pirate’s Fiancée) cites the song "Pirate Jenny" from Brecht’s Threepenny Opera, while Kaplan’s gesture against provincial social propriety suggests the Surrealism that had strongly influenced her. Released in 1969, in the early days of the Women’s Liberation movement, A Very Curious Girl immediately touched a nerve of excitement at the first women’s film festivals. I remember very clearly its impact at the Edinburgh Film Festival’s "Women and Film" event in 1972 where it was hailed as a triumphant example of feminist filmmaking to come. Whether or not the legacy of A Very Curious Girl has been fulfilled, it remains an exhilaratingly feminist film that is well worth reviving for a new audience today. - LM 10/13 Montreal: la lumière collective https://www.facebook.com/events/688660801504868/ <https://hi-beam.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e4e99825c1d97f8de6eaffad3&id=42ec698145&e=f36020cad0> 8pm, 7080, rue Alexandra #506, Montreal, Quebec H2S 3J5 SHORT FILMS AND VIDEOS BY ANNA KIPERVASER (FILMMAKER IN PERSON) A Ukrainian-born multimedia artist, Anna's moving image practice includes experimental and documentary works in both 16mm film and video.

In conjunction with the exhibition and performance series "Henning Christiansen: Freedom Is Around The Corner," organized by Blank Forms, this program presents a short survey of works directed by German artist and filmmaker Ursula Reuter Christiansen (b. 1943), with her husband, the Danish, Fluxus-affiliated artist and composer Henning Christiansen (1932-2008). Reuter Christiansen began scripting THE EXECUTIONER (SKARPRETTEREN), the earliest film in this program, in 1969, the same year she graduated from Düsseldorf's Akademie der Künste, where she studied with Joseph Beuys. Starring Reuter Christiansen herself and shot in the lush landscape of Møn, the Danish island where she has lived since 1970, THE EXECUTIONER uses a fragmented narrative to tell "a story of woman's degradation and exaltation," as its subtitle indicates. A landmark of Danish feminist art, the film was also Reuter Christiansen's first major collaboration with Henning, who composed the film's lyrical, subtly experimental music. The two artists worked together on numerous projects in the ensuing decades, including the Gesamtkunstwerk THE RED FOREST (DEN RØDE SKOV). Abandoning the eerie romanticism of THE EXECUTIONER, THE RED FOREST, which the couple co-wrote and co-directed, features an abstract narrative drawn from German fairy tales and bolstered by ecstatic, ahistorical multimedia sets and sounds.The screening will be followed by a Q&A with Ursula Reuter Christiansen! Presented by Blank Forms, "Henning Christiansen: Freedom Is Around The Corner" will be on view at 55 Walker Street from October 11-November 2, 2018, with a performance series taking place on various dates throughout. For more info, visit: blankforms.org Presented with support from Snyk, Nordic Culture Point, and the Nordic Culture Fund, with additional support from the Danish Arts Foundation, the Royal Norwegian Consulate, Goethe-Institut, the Danish Consulate General, Music Norway, and Ultima Contemporary Music Festival.

Bill Daniel makes his escape from Tex-ass, Vanessa Renwick brings her Le Guin-inspired Kesh down from Portland, and Doug Katelus loads his Hammond organ into our gallery for an evening celebrating the imagination of that huge American subculture that’s switched to “mobile living systems”. Doug sets the tone as the house Solo Organ, sharing his Econoline tribute to boot. Bill tacks up an in-situ installation of his itinerant landscapes in the ATA hallway, before narrating a slide-show that finally crystallizes the Tri-X Noise Aesthetic, and Chip Lord kicks in with a flashback to Ant Farm’s van tactics, as well as the sterile architecture of Phoenix ‘burbs in his new Valley of the Sun. ALSO a cornucopia of works on the Bay Area built environment: David de Roza’s Give (on Ingleside history), Julia Schroeder (in person) and Lana Lam’s Who Owns the Walls (on Oakland murals), Ben Wood’s Cellhouse History (on Alcatraz prison), a too-real clip from Dan Leighton’s notorious Wedding Train, and Frito Pies! *$9 SUNDAY, OCTOBER 14, 2018 10/14 Oakland: Shapeshifters Cinema http://shapeshifterscinema.com/ <https://hi-beam.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e4e99825c1d97f8de6eaffad3&id=9c2a54abfa&e=f36020cad0> 7:30-10PM, Temescal Art Center, 511 48th St. Oakland, CA SHAPESHIFTERS CINEMA PRESENTS LYDIA GREER Animator Lydia Greer will present an interactive lecture on Lotte Reiniger and Charlotte Salomon—two pioneers of time-based art, the graphic novel and animation—with films and images from both artists. Both grew up in Berlin, eventually fleeing the Nazis. They each had different approaches to trauma, with Reiniger using fantasy, euphemism and visual splendor as means of escapism while Salomon chronicled her family’s harrowing experience with a stark, expressionistic style. Following will be a live performance of expanded cinema with animation and moving images by Lydia Greer with special guests, opera singer Shauna Fallihee and performance artist Caryl Kientz. They will showcase a workshop of their newest piece together as well as revisit and expand on previous collaborations. A new short video entitled “Spiritual Gifts” is also screening based on Greer’s exploration into her family’s escape from Charismatic Christianity. 10/14 Portland, Oregon: Northwest Film Center http://www.nwfilm.org/ <https://hi-beam.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e4e99825c1d97f8de6eaffad3&id=65873434a7&e=f36020cad0> 7pm, Northwest Film Center's Whitsell Auditorium, 1219 SW Park Ave NOT SORRY #2: VESSELS The second installment of the series "Not Sorry: Feminist Experimental Film from the 1970s to Today", which seeks to ask questions like What is feminist experimental film? How is it feminist, and what makes it experimental? inspired by the new text Film Feminisms: A Global Introduction co-written by PSU film professor Dr. Kristin Lené Hole and Dr. Dijana Jelača screenings take place each Sunday evening in October. The goal of Not Sorry is to present a survey of short works spanning from the 1970s to today with an explicit intent on questioning the largely white male canon of experimental film while positioning different modes of experimentation within both international and contemporary terms. //// Post-screening discussion to follow with filmmakers Nazli Dinçel and Hannah Piper Burns in attendance. The day before, on Saturday, October 13th, join Dinçel for the workshop Analog Film and the Body. The $35 tuition will also get you into the screening the next day. _____ Let us know about your alternative film/video event!
