Re: [Frameworks] vision of a blind man

2015-12-08 Thread vassily bourikas
Dear Fred, Have you seen "The Unseen" by Miroslav Janek?
It has nothing to do with Brakhage. But it is about the untutored eye 
completely, blind children making films and not just. It is a rare kind of 
film. All my best, Vassily

dear all
on the longest day of the year 1969 the swiss filmmaker fredi murer 
shots his "vision of a blind man". the film is made with his eyes 
blindfolded. while shooting murer was relying fully on his ears and on 
two friends who'd drive him around in a blindfolded. he let himself be 
guided by what he hears and directs the camera accordingly.
the experiment in some way, I guess, owes to stan brakhages thoughts on 
the untutored eye. are there any other references, you'd consider? any 
related films from the top of your heads?
cheers- fred

Hi,

I just ordered some Standard 8 B/W reversal 100ASA ORWO UN54 film and would 
like to hand-process it at home. Does anyone know if it´s possible to develop 
it as a negative? And would it be possible to use the Caffenol dev that has 
been discussed here a few weeks ago? 
Or else, how would I go about developing it as a reversal at home?

Thank you,

Insa

[Frameworks] Advice please: 16mm projector on Direct Current

2013-04-01 Thread vassily bourikas
Hello, 

Has any of you had experience with running a projector on direct current? 
Even if you heard of anyone who modified a projector to run on dirct current 
(from battery, solar or wind cells, dynamos or any type of electric machine) 
please let me know. I will use a regular (internal combustion) engine generator 
that produces alternate (AC) but I must use an inverter to change it to DC for 
certain safety reasons. And I am not sure if a 16mm projector can run on Direct 
Current. 

If it is possible and any of you by any chance have such a modified projector 
PLEASE get in touch off list. 
Thanks

[Frameworks] Act-a-chrome

2012-12-12 Thread Vassily Bourikas
This is horrible news
But we must Act.
In Japan users of Fujichrome petitioned and managed a two years delay of the 
discontinuation of single-8 Fujichrome.

Frameworks can now be put into use. And beyond Frameworks, let's try this one 
people. A lot of great films get made on color reversal, we have to at least 
try a little.

More soon, I hope...

 I thought kodachrome's demise was tough, but this is really going to change 
 things in negative way.

 I just saw this here:

 I'm not as upset regarding 16mm shooting, since I mostly shoot negative, but 
 for super 8 I really don't know what to do...I know Fuji is stopping 
 manufacture as well, so what, if any, other color reversal options are there 
 without velvia to fill the gap? I suppose one could shoot negative, but then 
 the options only seem to be video transfer or 16mm blowup, which really 
 sucks. This also means no color reversal re-perforations for regular 8...

[Frameworks] Marcel for ever

2012-02-14 Thread vassily bourikas
Remember Marcel Mazé

He was an amazing person and what he did for the cinema he called Different 
was, is and will be so important. 
He passed away last night. Only two and a half months ago he was so happy to 
come to Greece for the first time and see the Acropolis. Like a child. 
Marcel, for me, was a person who believed in cinema with the innocence of a 
child and I will miss him very much. 
Please remember what he did, because it is the generous and altruistic people 
like him that get forgotten from canons and theory books. 
Long live the cinema of difference and long live Marcel Mazé!___
