Re: [Frameworks] Fuses: projection speed?

No problem John! Hi Herb! Yeah, I don't think it's "wrong" to show it at 24fps. Asking her personally if possible is the best way to get a definitive answer, though as is her nature as an artist this may change. (It's therefore understandable that there are vague or conflicting indications.) Anyway

Re: [Frameworks] Fuses: projection speed?

Carolee goes back and forth on this, but recently specified to EAI and Anthology her preference for 18fps. (That is the speed at which it is showing at her current show at Museum der Moderne, Salzburg.) But I th

[Frameworks] Animated Conversations

Hi Frameworks Members As research for an article I am writing, I'm curious to learn more of films that might take the form of "animated conversations" -- audio interviews rendered visually by animation -- or perhaps more broadly animated or collage works based on extant audio of speech (whether fo

Re: [Frameworks] Literature and experimental film

Also in video you might be interested in some of these short pieces by Cynthia Maughan, which recall Edgar Allan Poe and Flannery O'Connor: http://www.eai.org/artistTitles.htm?id=13111 I'm thinking specifically of Frozen & Buried Alive and Trailer Life. On Sat, Sep 28, 2013 at 4:31 PM, Warren Co

The idea of using the collection in Jordan as a guinea pig is troubling. re: Florian's last point, a lot of it seems to be small gauge. On Wed, Jul 17, 2013 at 8:51 AM, Florian Cramer wrote: > I do have some questions: > - The construction is not fundamentally different from other > frame-by-fr

Re: [Frameworks] Sites/Resources for Silent Move Title Card Fonts

Sad news, but he'll live on through his 200 (!) films and tremendous influence. At Spectacle in Brooklyn we are also doing a spontaneous Saturday night tribute with a midnight screening of SHE KILLED IN ECSTASY: http://spectacletheater.com/april-midnights-12102#franco Jon On Tue, Apr 2, 2013 at

Re: [Frameworks] mpeg-2
