[Frameworks] survey on Preservation and Exhibition of Experimental Film
Sent on behalf of madison.m...@flemingcollege.ca<mailto:madison.m...@flemingcollege.ca>: consider filling out her survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/9LSM9PZ?fbclid=IwAR3T-50w4NMGpX1oUmD92lgQC5FHYpsUr0erXIUAFkh3rw5qM2DHZs6Se5Q Preservation and Exhibition of Experimental Film Top of Form Hi! My name is Madison More, and I am an experimental filmmaker and student in the Museum Management and Curatorship program at Fleming College. I am currently conducting research for my summer semester research project. The project is examining the unique preservation and exhibition needs of experimental film, and will hopefully become a useful tool to guide archives and other cultural institutions on how to ethically manage their experimental film works. Although my project will lean more heavily towards work produced on film, I am still interested in works produced on other formats (video and digital). I am looking to gain insight from experimental filmmakers on how their works have been/are currently being managed by cultural institutions, and what they think can be done by these institutions to ensure that the artistic integrity of their works is maintained in the future. I would appreciate it if you filled out this survey. It has 9 questions and should take around 5 minutes to complete. All responses will be kept anonymous, but they may be used in my research report as evidence. If you have any questions, or would like to talk to me about my project, don't hesitate to send me an email at madison.m...@flemingcollege.ca.

[Frameworks] Carnegie Museum of Art online research collection: Department of Film & Video
This body of research material may be of interest to Frameworks members: online recordings, images and documents from a foundational film and video art institition. *** Carnegie Museum of Art (CMOA) is excited to announce that its Department of Film and Video archive is now open for exploration and research. The archive measures a thrilling 450 linear feet and contains artifacts from the world of experimental film and video art from 1970 through the early 2000s, including photographs, correspondence with artists, books and periodicals on film and video, distribution catalogs, event posters, program notes, and other ephemera. The archive is available for research by appointment and a large portion of digitized materials are viewable online through CMOA’s brand new digital collections website at records.cmoa.org. Items we are most excited to share via the website include: • More than 100 audio and video recordings of lectures and interviews with experimental moving image artists such as Hollis Frampton, Bruce Conner, Paul Sharits, Stephen Beck, Carolee Schneemann, Yvonne Rainer, and Michael Snow. • The Film and Video Makers Travel Sheet, a monthly directory published by CMOA between 1973 and 1987 that helped artists promote themselves and book gigs with screening venues all across the country. CMOA’s Department of Film and Video (known in its earliest years as the Film Section) was one of the first museum-based moving image programs in the country. Founded in 1970 by Sally Dixon, a pioneering and charismatic champion of filmmakers, the program helped experimental film and video artists launch their careers and share their works with new audiences. Artists like Stan Brakhage, Hollis Frampton, Carolee Schneemann, Yvonne Rainer, and James Broughton were frequent visitors to the museum, which contributed to Pittsburgh’s emergence in the 1970s as “one of the most vibrant and exciting places in America for exploring cinema.” For access to the archive, please visit CMOA’s new website at records.cmoa.org or contact the museum archives at archi...@cmoa.org. The Department of Film and Video archive and records.cmoa.org are one of the many facets of CMOA’s Time-Based Media Project. Generous support for the project is provided by the A.W. Mellon Foundation.

Re: [Frameworks] Film/video programers/curators and campus film screenings
Thank you to everyone on- and off-list who shared their stories and experiences about programming film in college and university. All the responses thus far have been from people in Canada or the US. Has anyone outside those countries started programming at campus film societies? It’s fascinating to hear the creative ways in which people used limited resources (including the all-important university film/video collection) and the relative freedom afforded by campus screening situations to experiment with showing work. And it seems that people are not simply moving from campus to film and art venues; rather there’s a persistent move back and forth between campus and external venues along programmers' creative and educational trajectories. > On Mar 18, 2016, at 11:02 AM, Tara Nelson <brendamere...@gmail.com> wrote: > > My experience with experimental film started in the micro-cinema scene in > Pittsburgh, which was entirely DIY and non-affiliated (though Pittsburgh > Filmmakers was very supportive) - Jefferson Presents..., and before them > Orgone Cinema - represented two decades of consistent experimental film > screenings, completely run by artists (Michael Johnsen, Greg Pierce, Gordon > Nelson, Adam Abrams, Jim Mueller).

[Frameworks] Film/video programers/curators and campus film screenings
Hi Frameworks: I’m doing some research on what connections (if any) exist between people who program or curate film, video, and other moving image media and their experiences in college and university. Question: If you are currently programming or curating, did you get any experience at a college or university campus film society or screening series? I know of histories in Toronto at universities like Ryerson, University of Toronto, and York University, and have read anecdotal accounts from schools like Binghamton, NY, where students from those schools programmed ambitious experimental screenings on campus and then continued to program/curate afterwards, but I’m wondering how widespread that connection is. And whether it’s a North American phenomenon or if it occurs elsewhere. Please share any stories or personal histories, either privately to me, or to the listserv. Thanks!

Re: [Frameworks] (nostalgia) versions...
I don’t think there are two distinct versions. I suspect (though to be honest I haven’t used a stop watch to time it) that Shira may be ascribing a precision to the film which it in fact lacks—though the ascription is entirely understandable since, as a foundational ‘structural film’ using a strategy of repetition, (nostalgia) invites an expectation that it’s all worked out in advance, and that each unit is structurally consistent. But each photo burns differently (the photographic paper is likely different), and (at least according to an analysis by Steina at the ZKM show on Buffalo Media Study) each segment has a slightly different length. There’s an interesting study to be done on differing descriptions of experimental films to explore the different ways in which we see, describe, and interpret these works. > On Mar 4, 2016, at 2:31 PM, John Muse <jm...@sonic.net> wrote: > > But is the Treasures version the one Segal describes, and is that the, um, > authorized version?

[Frameworks] 16mm print of Ballet Mecanique -- version by William Moritz
Does anyone on Frameworks know where to source a 16mm film print of William Moritz's 'reconstruction' of Leger/Murphy's Ballet méchanique? It has a soundtrack that attempts to provide a sense of Antheil's original score, and it also has some colour tinting in some sections. This version is on YouTube, and I've seen a VHS version, but would love to access a print. I have already checked EYE, Lightcone, FMC, Canyon, MoMA, and CVM.
