Hello Frameworkers, all of us at EIC want to thank our community of cinematic experimentalists for making our 20th anniversary edition such a success in spite of all the goofiness in terms of federal funding. To that end we have several announcements:
1. This fall Millennium Film Journal will be reviewing our 275 page yearbook commemorating 20 years producing EIC. The yearbook is titled "Pause and Play: Experiments in Cinema, 20 years in the saddle." The book contains pictures, essays, festival artwork and a complete list of all artists, presenters, workshops and films that we have hosted over the years. For those of you who might be interested in purchasing a copy, you can find it on our website (
www.experimentsincinema.org).
2. Also, this fall Senses of Cinema magazine will run an article about our 20th anniversary edition of EIC.
3. Last, and possibly most important, our call for submissions will be open on Film Freeway August 1 - November 1, 2025. The next edition of EIC (v21.5) will happen in Albuquerque, NM April 16-19, 2026 and an online version will be available (free with no geo blocking) April 28-May 10, 2026.
Please note that although we have lost all our federal funding, the show WILL go on AND we have reduced our submission fees this year as a way of giving back to the community.
cinematically yours,
Team EIC
