Every year, Ithaca College’s Finger Lakes Environmental Film Festival (FLEFF) 
 showcases global media projects focusing on 
issues of sustainability, with events both on campus and at local independent 
theater Cinemapolis. This year’s effort was initially canceled due to the 
coronavirus pandemic, but has since moved completely online, replete with 
virtual screenings.

This year’s festival has three different initiatives, composed of more than 50 
films and new media projects, and includes two exhibitions, “Radical 
Infiltrations” and “Infiltrations: A Different Media Environment.”

An online exhibition of new media art, “Radical 
Infiltrations,” showcases 
art generated by code, algorithm and interfaces that explore the power of 
questioning and even challenging infiltrations, such as the manipulations of 
profit-driven algorithms and the relentless rhetoric of political polarization.

“Infiltrations: A Different Media 
Environment” features eight 
different independent media groups from Australia, Canada, China, Indonesia, 
and the United States, featuring short, community-produced, and modestly 
resourced videos that confront urgent unresolved environmental, health, and 
political issues, including coronavirus. The exhibition is a partnership 
between FLEFF and the Park Center for Independent Media.

“Our partnership with Cinemapolis has insured FLEFF and Ithaca College can 
bring groundbreaking international art cinema to Ithaca, our region, and the 
world.”

Patricia Zimmermann, co-director of FLEFF

The media from these two exhibitions can be viewed for free on the FLEFF 
website.

Starting on April 10, Cinemapolis, whose executive director, Brett Bossard, is 
a 1995 alumnus of Ithaca College, will screen several international art film 
titles originally slated for FLEFF. The cinema is collaborating with 
independent film distributors to sell patrons “virtual tickets” for online 
rentals of current first-run releases that can be screened using a laptop or 
mobile device.

Viewing Party

The Cinemapolis "Virtual Cinema" will screen several films slated for FLEFF 
over the next several weeks. For more information, and to watch the films, go 
the virtual cinema page on the 
Cinemapolis website.

“Our partnership with Cinemapolis has insured FLEFF and Ithaca College can 
bring groundbreaking international art cinema to Ithaca, our region, and the 
world,” said Patricia Zimmermann, professor 
of media arts, sciences and studies and co-director of the festival. “And this 
vital partnership has meant continually adapting and innovating to community 
needs, whether embodied or now virtual, to insure space for cinemas that change 
how we see and think about the globe.”

Begun in 1997 as an outreach project from Cornell University’s Center for the 
Environment, the Finger Lakes Environmental Film Festival was moved permanently 
to Ithaca College in 2005. It is housed in the Office of the Provost as a 
program to link intellectual inquiry and debate to larger global issues.

Launched in 2008, the Park Center for Independent 
Media
 is a center for the study of media outlets that create and distribute content 
outside traditional corporate systems.

I have here a box that mostly contains interviews on original reversal film
with magfilm sound tracks on each.  Lots of people talking about UFOs and 
various silliness but some documentary shots of various sorts.  Also has
some special effects shots... mattes that don't match up with anything, etc.

The first person willing to pay media mail shipping gets it.  I have no
rights to any of the interviews so I'd kind of prefer it goes to a school
or something that is going to use it for editing practice.  But once it is
is out of my hands it becomes your problem.

[Frameworks] FRACTO - Bruce Baillie / Chick Strand Digital Screening

[Fracto Film Encounter]

** BRUCE BAILLIE / CHICK STRAND Digital Screening


Dear FRACTO Friends,

On April 10th, we received the devastating news of the passing of Bruce 
Baillie. Baillie was the founder of Canyon Cinema, and co-founder of the San 
Francisco Cinematheque, alongside Chick Strand, whose film work was highly 
influential on his own.

Starting April 30, we will be presenting a digital screening program of four 
titles (2 by Baillie and 2 by Strand) in Bruce's honor. As we have paid a fee 
(a significant portion of which will go directly to Bruce's family) to rent the 
digital prints from Canyon Cinema, we kindly ask for a small donation to help 
us recoup the rental costs. That said, we realize these are tough and strange 
times for many of us, so the screening is free for all to enjoy.

The full program is as follows:
Bruce Baillie - Valentin De Las Sierras (1968) 10'
Chick Strand - Cosas de mi Vida  (1976) 24'
Bruce Baillie - Roslyn Romance (Is It Really True?) (1974) 17'
Chick Strand - Fake Fruit Factory (1986) 22'

This will be the digital premiere of the Strand film restorations.

Should the total donations end up a greater sum than we paid for the rental, 
the extra funds will be donated to Baillie's family.

The stream will be accessible for one week.
