Re: [Frameworks] Xenon projection

[Esperanza Collado]

Thank you, Scott, this is exactly what I was told but wanted to confirm.
Nice trick what you suggest for venue lighting! In fact I think we will be
fine in that sense. Cheers.

Re: [Frameworks] Xenon projection

[Scott Dorsey]

If a film has been timed for xenon or arc projection, it will look a little
bit yellow when shown on an incandescent classroom projector, but the eye
will adjust in a minute or two.

You could put a filter on, but you'd lose most of a stop of light, and you
would lose some sharpness, and in the end the eye would adjust in a minute
or two anyway.

If you're worried about it, dim the room lighting or use orange house lights
before showing, so that people's eyes are already adapted to very warm light, 
and then when the film comes up it will seem artificially blue at first, even.

[Frameworks] Xenon projection

[Esperanza Collado]

Dear Frames,

t would be great if you could enlighten me a bit about xenon projection. I
have found films that seem to be specially exposed for this
higher temperature, but would it be at all problematic to screen them on a
regular tungsten lamp? Ive heard a blue filter would do the trick, only
that it would loose luminosity quite drastically? It doesnt sound like the
best choice for a rather small screen...

Excuse me if my question seems too obvious, but I couldnt find this
question in the forum's thread. Thanks for any thoughts about it.

Esperanza.

[Frameworks] TONIGHT: 7:30pm - Paris, 1980s: Deconstructed Narratives and Late Formalisms 16mm films at Microscope, Brooklyn

[LBurchill]

16mm films by Jean-Pierre Bertrand, David Wharry, Unglee, Jakobois, and Téo
Hernandez

admission $7


Microscope is very pleased to welcome back Paris-based curator and
researcher Enrico Camporesi for a second survey of 16mm films selected from
the Light Cone collection (Paris). The evening includes works by
Jean-Pierre Bertrand, David Wharry, Unglee, Jakobois, and Téo Hernandez
that have rarely, if ever, screened in the US.



Program notes by Enrico Camporesi follow:


This program gathers five films from the early 1980s, and wishes to present
an overview of a diverse variety of artistic practices of the time. Ideally
the works presented in the program revolve around two main axes: narrative
and form. At first the importance of 'structural' filmmaking can still be
witnessed. The inquiry into the specific properties of film is developed
both in an unconscious, indirect way (as in The Diamon'd by conceptual
artist Jean-Pierre Bertrand) or else dismantled with sense of humor (as in
the work of Jakobois). Narrative, in its deconstructed configuration, is at
the core of the works by Unglee and David Wharry, the two of them openly
playing with genre codes and tropes (science-fiction and mystery). L'Eau de
la Seine by Mexican born filmmaker Téo Hernandez closes the program with
the portrait of one of Paris' most iconic elements, the Seine, which
rapidly turns into an almost-entire abstract imagery. In these
juxtaposition of heterogenous individual practices, mutual strategies and
concerns emerge, thus enabling to see what could be defined one of the most
challenging moments in experimental and artist's film in France.



PROGRAM:


The Diamon'd (Jean-Pierre Bertrand, 1981)

16 mm / col. / sil. / 1'30


A Touch of Venus - General Picture. Episode 11 (David Wharry, 1980)

16 mm / col. / mag. sound / 8'


Radio-Serpent (Unglee, 1980)

16 mm / col. / op. sound / 12'


Déjà ? Vu (Jakobois, 1980)

16 mm / col. / sound on CD / 10'30


L'Eau de la Seine (Téo Hernandez, 1982-1983)

16 mm (or. Super 8) / col. / sil. / 18'


Total running time: 50'

ENRICO CAMPORESI is an Italian writer and curator based in Paris. He is a
research fellow at Centre Pompidou and he is currently writing a Ph. D
dissertation on matters of restoration and museology of experimental and
artist’s film. He recently curated (with Jonathan Pouthier) the program
'Duchamp du film' at Centre Pompidou, and he edited Jean-Michel Bouhours on
Paolo Gioli (Paris: Light Cone Editions, 2014).


Light Cone is a non-profit making organization with the aim of promoting,
distributing and preserving experimental cinema. Its remit covers the
different historical forms, as well as contemporary research, both in
France and abroad. Its collection is by virtue of its size and
comprehensiveness one of the most important and valuable collections of
experimental film in Europe. Light Cone distributes nearly 3700 works –
Super-8, 35mm and above all 16mm films, works of expanded cinema
(multi-screen projection) as well as analogue and digital videos. More than
500 international artists and filmmakers made these films from 1905 onwards
to the present day.

[Frameworks] CFP: 10th Visual and Cultural Studies Graduate Conference (Drawing Together: Solidarities, Pictures, and Politics)

[Anderson, Joel Neville]

Drawing Together: Solidarities, Pictures, and Politics
10th Visual and Cultural Studies Graduate Conference
University of Rochester
April 10-11, 2015
http://humanities.lib.rochester.edu/vcsconference


“Solidarity” recalls notions of inclusivity, activism, and movement. Adopted 
from the French solidarité in the early 19th century, the word continues to 
indicate the communal union of interests or aspirations, as well as collective 
responsibility. From its use by labor unions to its association with socialism 
and communism, solidarity has historically been made to bear a sense of the 
political. We recognize in the powerful images of recent events a renewed need 
to assess strategies of togetherness, both historical and contemporary. We 
propose this topic with the aim of critically engaging pictures and their power 
to mobilize both differences and commonalities. Can we envision solidarity 
outside the pursuit of common political aims? Can we find common ground amidst 
different struggles?

We invite scholars, artists, and activists to draw upon our understanding of 
solidarity and the visual dimensions in which solidarity is organized in social 
movements, represented in art and activism, and studied in and out of the 
academy. Possible topics might include, but are by no means limited to:

  *   Artistic practice in political movements (labor, civil rights, climate 
change)
  *   Tactics and strategies of historical and contemporary grassroots movements
  *   Media images, hashtag #solidarity, spectacle
  *   Protest songs, union anthems, “The Internationale,” “Solidarity Forever”
  *   Armchair activism, “slacktivism,” and the ethics of involvement
  *   Documentation of collectivity, alternative journalism
  *   The politics of love and kinship

We invite individual submissions as well as pre-constituted panels (of 3-4 
presenters) in the form of 300 word abstracts (for 20-minute paper 
presentations) and 100 word bios for each presenter, to be sent to 
vcsconfere...@gmail.com by February 15, 2015.

Select presenters may be invited to revise presentations for publication at 
InVisible Culture: An Electronic Journal of Visual Culture 
(http://ivc.lib.rochester.edu).
