THE ALIENS ARE COMING!! BALDWIN'S TRIBULATION 99 + 16MM UFO DOC!
On the 25th ANNIVERSARY of one of the most important experimental films ever
made, and in acknowledgment of our current*ahem*..."politi cal" spectrum of
MEDIA-AMPLIFIED LIES, XENOPHOBIA, and FEAR-MONGERING MADNESS, we host a
Halloween DOUBLE-FEATURE SPECIAL. The ultimate satire on media-overload, CRAIG
BALDWIN'S 1991 masterpiece TRIBULATION 99, a delirious onrush of found footage
from MEXICAN Z-FILMS to NEWSREELS to PSYCHOTRONIC FILMS to documentary,
accompanied by a rapid-fire paranoid Right-Wing V.O. connecting every
20th-century conspiracy from JFK's ASSASSINATION to FIDEL CASTRO'S threat to
America to the HOLLOW EARTH in an attempt to "explain" how South America's
Democratic leaders were actually UFOS FROM OUTER SPACE bent on annihilating the
US and the world, is the craziest mind-fuck of a film you'll ever encounter.
Melting away any divisions between "fact" and "fiction," TRIB 99, a watershed
film, set new standards for essay filmmaking and revolutionized the potentials
for collage film, turning its maker into an underground celebrity virtually
overnight. + the film which inspired TRIB 99, the ULTRA-RARE bizarro
DRIVE-\-\IN UFO DOC "MYSTERIES FROM BEYOND EARTH" ON 16MM!!! **SHOW STARTS AT
7:30!!

After 2 epic Autumns in the East Bay, the Haxan Project now sets up stakes in
the Mission, to initiate a Big-City audience into its irresistible cycle of
wicca-ed cinema, with a tent-full of works—all women-made—capped by a
provocative live performance! Curators Courtney Fellion, Phaedra Restad, and
Hannah Schulman have hand-picked the very best work from their wildly creative
coven, including transformative pieces from Gina Basso, Karissa Hahn, Leslie
Supnet, Sarah Rooney, Natalie Tsui, Nazar Soares, Laura Conway, Lili White, and
Julia Triangular—all to be consummated in the rites of the Church of Color and
Light, whose overhead projections and hypnotic incantations promise a path to

MAD SONIC SCIENTISTS!: TIM KAISER + IGLOO MARTIAN + SKINCAGE + FAWN BONES
An evening of electro-acoustic innovations featuring Minnesota’s mad genius Tim
Kaiser! Kaiser is a sonic inventor exerting prowess over his hand-crafted
instruments. A rig of Frankenstein objects creates a wall of sound, reacting to
light, the flip of a switch, a shifted knob or the plucking of a steel rod.
Growing out of this array are audible undulations, sheets of reverb and unknown
timbre– all mutable, amorphous and evolving. Kaiser’s tableau of instruments
resemble a scientific laboratory, a steampunk console, entertaining our
imagination and questioning our definition of music. Joining Kaiser are Fawn
Bones, Skincage and Igloo Martian!!

7:30pm, 1329 Willoughby Ave, 2B
DREAMLANDS: EXPANDED - MALCOLM LE GRICE
British moving image pioneer Malcolm Le Grice revisits two of his early
performative works for the launch of Dreamlands: Expanded. In the rarely seen
“Principles of Cinematography” (1973) Le Grice reads from Leslie J. Wheeler’s
1953 book of the same name to the accompaniment of projection of clear 16mm
film leader. Le Grice also performs his iconic “Horror Film 1” for triple 16mm
projection, employing his own body in a shadow play with the superimposed
streams of colored light. First performed in 1971, the work was described at
the time by Jonas Mekas as “one of his most simple, most classical, and also
most ecstatic pieces”. This performance is the first in a series of events
organized by Microscope in collaboration with the Whitney Museum of American
Art as part of the exhibition Dreamlands: Immmersive Cinema & Art, 2015-2016.
The evening concludes with a Q&A with the artist. General admission $15.
Students & Members $10. Tickets available at the link above.

PERFORMANCE TAPES NO. 6: ACTING OUT
In this sixth iteration of Performance Tapes, art and film historian Jennifer
Stob presents two mid-1970s videos from the artists Ant Farm and Ulay. Paired
together, the works challenge the distinction between aesthetic and embodied
acts of subversive appropriation, or détournement. In "The Eternal Frame," Ant
Farm and T.R. Uthco reenact the assassination of President John F. Kennedy as
it was accidentally captured in the Super-8 film footage of Abraham Zapruder.
Together, the performance and its documentation satirize the dubious
relationship between American media spectacle and collective memory. Ulay's "Da
ist eine kriminelle Berührung in der Kunst (There is a Criminal Touch to Art)"
records an "action in fourteen predetermined sequences" in which the artist
removed a famed painting from Berlin's New National Gallery and hung it in the
apartment of a Turkish immigrant family. The German press interpreted this
thievery as the "acting out" of a mentally disturbed person.
However, the issues of cultural capital, nationalism and the reproduction of
images raised by Ulay's détournement point instead to a condemnation of
societal psychology.

DREAM SPHINX: FILMS OF ROGER JACOBY
Introduction by Susan Chainey; Susan Chainey, Roger Jacoby’s sister, appears in
Pearl and Puppet. Introduction by Janis Crystal Lipzin. Janis Crystal Lipzin
knew Jacoby well during the last ten years of his life; former chair of the San
Francisco Art Institute film department, she is a Bay Area intermedia artist
and filmmaker. While Jacoby’s first film, Futurist Song, reveals his training
as a painter, his love of opera and cinema permeates much of his diverse work,
which traverses the intimate and theatrical, humorous and sensual. In his last
film, How to Be a Homosexual Part II, completed two years before his death,
Jacoby turns his camera on himself, ill from AIDS. Sarah Schulman observes,
“Roger was a transitional figure in the history of gay experimental film,
bridging from filmmakers who preceded gay liberation, like Anger, Broughton,
Warhol, Kuchar, Markopoulos, and others, to younger makers . . . whose entire
worldview was forged by gay liberation.” Films in this
Screening: Futurist Song, 1972; Dream Sphinx Opera, 1974; Aged in Wood, 1975;
L’Amico Fried’s Glamorous Friends, 1976; Pearl and Puppet, 1975; How to Be a
Homosexual Part II, 1982

MONO X : KITCH’S LAST MEAL
MONO NO AWARE is excited to present KITCH'S LAST MEAL by Carolee Scheemann as
part of our community curated cinema arts festival, MONO X. The third part of
her autobiographical trilogy (including FUSES and PLUMB LINE), KITCH’S LAST
MEAL documents, among other things, the demise of Schneemann’s cat comrade,
Kitch. Presented in varying configurations and lengths over the years, KITCH’S
was shot in Super-8mm and shown simultaneously on two projectors with one image
arranged above another. This configuration is duplicated in Anthology’s
preservation, and the sound is played from CD in an attempt to keep the ‘live’
nature of the film intact. If you have not seen it before, KITCH’s undoubtedly
stands as one of Schneemann’s most emotionally gripping and cathartic works.
“Domestic imagery filmed weekly for three years in a country house where my
partner and myself are observed by our 19-year-old cat in the normal routine of
domestic intimacy and our work as artists. … The
ordinariness of the activities of the couple in association with the
disjunctive sound builds towards a disconcerting invisibility – beyond what is
here manifest.” –C.S. Anthology Film Archives is an international center for
the exhibition, preservation, and study of independent and artist film and
video. For the opening night of the festival, Anthology is pleased to partner
with MONO NO AWARE to present a special evening in celebration of the
pioneering artist Carolee Schneemann. The evening will center around
Schneemann's rarely-screened, 16mm dual-projection film KITCH’S LAST MEAL, with
special additions to the program to be announced!

SHOOT SHOOT SHOOT: THE LONDON FILM-MAKERS’ CO-OP
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the London Film-Makers’ Co-operative, this
screening presents a selection of work by some of innovative film artists who
gathered there in its formative years: David Crosswaite, Marilyn Halford,
Malcolm Le Grice, Mike Leggett, Annabel Nicolson, William Raban, Lis Rhodes and
John Smith. Inspired by the example set by Jonas Mekas and his colleagues in
New York, the London Co-op was founded in 1966. In contrast to similar
organizations, the LFMC’s activity was not limited to distribution; within a
few years it was running a regular program in its own cinema and, most notably,
had a workshop in which filmmakers could control every stage of the creative
process. The workshop housed a continuous processor and step printer and was an
essential, contributory factor in steering the direction of the uncompromising
films produced at the LFMC in the 1970s. The tendency was defined by as
“structural/materialist” by one of the group’s leading
polemicists, Peter Gidal, alluding to what was then the dominant mode in
avant-garde cinema but adding a qualification that suggests both Marxist
philosophy and the physical presence of the medium that was foregrounded in
British filmmaking. A second, and equally significant, form of practice was
expanded cinema, which made creative use of the mechanics of projection in the
presentation of multiscreen films and performance works. Light Music by Lis
Rhodes is exemplary in this regard. Two projectors face each other across the
room, creating an environment in which the audience is participant. Its
abstract imagery (an ever-changing array of horizontal lines composed as a
musical score) is printed across the frame and optical soundtrack area of a
16mm film print, enabling it to be both seen and heard. – Mark Webber The
program will be introduced by Mark Webber, author of Shoot Shoot Shoot: The
First Decade of the London Film-Makers’ Co-operative 1966-76 (LUX, October
2016) and
co-editor of Flare Out: Aesthetics 1966–2016, a collection of essays by Peter
Gidal issued by The Visible Press in April 2016.

MONO X : FIVE FILMS OF GORDON MATTA-CLARK
MONO NO AWARE is excited to present five films of Gordon Matta-Clark as part of
our community curated cinema arts festival, MONO X. Co-Presented by Samuel
Adams of Tenant416 and MONO NO AWARE, Tenant416 is honored to present five
films of Gordon Matta-Clark, widely considered one of the most influential
artists working in the 1970s. His practice introduced new and radical modes of
physically exploring and subverting urban architecture, and some of his most
well known projects involved laboriously cutting holes into floors and walls of
abandoned buildings. Often overlooked in otherwise illuminating texts and
exhibitions that focus on Matta-Clark, his films add immeasurably to our
understanding and appreciation of the inimitable artist's ability to shift the
spatial, temporal, and philosophical ground beneath us. The five films
presented have been carefully selected to reveal not only the breadth of his
architectural interventions and performances, but also the artist's
interest and gravity towards avant-garde filmmaking. Co-director of the Estate
of Gordon Matta-Clark, Jessamyn Fiore, will generously, introduce the program
as well as each film individually, followed by a Q&A.

MANY WORLDS: AN EVENING OF SOUND, FILM AND VIDEO PERFORMANCES
A program of three improvisatory sound, audio and music compositions performed
live in collaboration with film and video projection. with: Buttons and Faith
Arazi / All My Senses Rebel and Konrad Steiner / Dire Wolves and Paul Clipson.
BUTTONS: Per Anders Nilsson is an Improvising musician and electro-acoustic
composer based in Gothenburg, Sweden. Gino Robair has performed and recorded
with Tom Waits, Anthony Braxton, John Zorn, Nina Hagen, Terry Riley, Lou
Harrison, John Butcher, Derek Bailey, Peter Kowald, Otomo Yoshihide, and the
ROVA Saxophone Quartet. Tom Djll studied electronic music with Stephen Scott at
the Colorado College, working with the EMS Synthi 100. All My Senses Rebel is
the duo of Josephine Torio and Benjamin Tinker. The two have been working
together for sometime in the expanded improvising collective known as That
Hideous Strength. The Dire Wolves Absolutely Perfect Brothers Band brew an
overblown kosmische folk improv, “splicing the DNA of MV & EE,
Pharoah Sanders and Sonic Youth, honing in on the heavy kraut psych of early
70s Amon Duul II, in a way that neatly bridges the gap between Burnt Hills’
profound freeform primitivism and Desmadrados Soldados de Ventura’s enlightened
groove-locked chaos” (Psi Lab). Faith Arazi is an artist based in San
Francisco, developing a body of handmade films by use of optical printers, arts
and crafts, and a penchant for playfulness. Konrad Steiner is a filmmaker since
1981. He has curated, produced and performed in live cinema events in San
Francisco since 2004. Paul Clipson is a San Francisco-based filmmaker who often
collaborates with sound artists and musicians on films, live performances, and
installations.

DREAMLANDS: EXPANDED - KEN JACOBS
Ken Jacobs’ “Black Space” is an exploration of a completely black room,
intended as an actualization of the theoretical “black space” needed for
optimal film projection. The piece was conceived and first performed in the
mid-70s and has only previously been presented twice in the past 40 years.
“Complete darkness and we only acknowledge sensation, what we feel and hear and
see, and not what we know…flashes of light leave 3D images lingering on our
retinas as they join the other sensations, as does my disembodied guiding
voice.” – Ken Jacobs, 2016. The evening concludes with a presentation and Q&A
with the artist. This performance is one in a series of expanded cinema events
organized by Microscope in collaboration with the Whitney Museum of American
Art as part of the exhibition Dreamlands: Immmersive Cinema & Art, 2015-2016.

MONO X : LOOK FOR ME
MONO NO AWARE is excited to present the world premiere expanded cinema
performance LOOK FOR ME by Lucy Kerr as part of our community curated cinema
arts festival, MONO X. LOOK FOR ME (2016) is a multimedia project intersecting
a two channel film and a live performance. The film component of this work was
shot on 16mm using an Arri S camera. Portions of the film were hand processed
and the footage was edited digitally. The music accompanying this piece is an
original score by Clay Wilson and Jack Leahy composed on analog synthesizers
and recorded on a reel to reel tape machine. LOOK FOR ME is a visual portrait
of a female figure in conversation with her memory. The performer on stage is
multiplied through the projected images of herself in distant landscapes. This
work is inspired by Simone de Beauvoir’s notion of ambiguity, in which a person
is painted as being both subject and object. In LOOK FOR ME, the figure is
extracted from herself as other than herself. The audience is
invited to witness the performer as if she is looking at herself through the
lens of her imagination. LOOK FOR ME is co-presented by DFA, CPR and MONO NO
AWARE. Produced by MONO NO AWARE with the help of ColorLab, MD

kick-backs and call-girls! Based on Andrew Feinstein’s book and with help from
Eduardo Galeano, Seymour Hersch, Chris Hedges, and Jeremy Scahill, this
archive-heavy assemblage is preceded bya brillrally of feisty political satire,
crystallizing our collective anxiety on the eve of this Presidential fiasco:

Survival Oblivious. Early show-time to smash the Trump piñata! *8PM

film, installation, and visual art. Geiser's work is known for its
recontextualization of abandoned images and objects, its embrace of artifice,
and its sense of suspended time. "Geiser gives voice to the reaches of the
unconscious, pointing to the abandoned splendor that exists prior to the rules
of society and language." -Holly Willis, Res, 2004 Experimental Response Cinema

MONO X : CHILDREN ON THE EDGE OF ITCHY-TECTONICS - TAIWANESE NEW EXPERIMENTAL
FILMS
MONO NO AWARE is excited to present Children on the edge of itchy-tectonics :
Taiwanese New Experimental Films as part of our community curated cinema arts
festival, MONO X .This program is a collection of the younger generation of
Taiwanese experimental films. It is the New York premiere of Dooll Chao, Lin
Mao, Kaire Wang, 王鈞, Ya-Ting Hsu, Huang Ya-Li, Ye Mimi, Tzu-An Wu, Yin-Ju Chen,
HSU Tsen-chu, and Lin Shih-Chieh. Locates in the tight corner between
geographical and cultural political plate tectonics, the island rides on the
eruption dynamics which converges as well as destructs. These millennials
filmmakers grow up from the rise and fall of Taiwanese New Wave Cinema, and the
dilemmas of the contemporary moving images: forms, media, and
institutionalization… While date lines vanishes, cross-national transferring
turned common, they emerge from the foundation of transformations, friction and
tickling between these gaps are here to stay. Co-presented by Tzu-An Wu, Wen
Hsu,
L/Y, The Other Cinema and MONO NO AWARE.
