Nazlı Dinçel’s work reflects on experiences of disruption. She records the body in context with arousal, immigration, dislocation and desire in juxtaposition with the medium’s material: texture, color and the passing of emulsion. Her use of text as image, language and sound attempts the failure of memory and her own displacement within a western society. BIO Born in Ankara, Turkey, Dinçel immigrated to the United Sates at the age of 17. Dinçel resides in Milwaukee, WI where she is currently building an artist run film laboratory. She obtained her MFA in filmmaking from UW-Milwaukee. Her works have been exhibited in numerous venues around the world including Tiger Shorts competition at IFFR, New York Film Festival, Edinburgh International Film Festival and Dallas Contemporary. She recently won the Marian McMahon Akimbo award at the 2017 Images Festival with Untitled (2016) and was also awarded Best Experimental Film at the 2015 Chicago Underground Film Festival with Her Silent Seaming (2014).

Admission is free. Rsvp recommended to r...@microscopegallery.com A live expanded cinema performance by Katherine Bauer taking place in connection with her current exhibition Cinematic Death Moon Return: Impact Phase and within the title installation work. The event is the closing performance of the "Impact Phase" as well as the final ritual of the artist's Cinematic Death Moon Return (CDMR) cycle. The 3-part CDMR is based upon a mythology created by Bauer: the moon was a part of Earth expelled in a volcanic explosion; the hole it left behind became a quarry from which minerals were mined and technology created including the materials and apparatuses of cinema; the magnetic pull of the technologies eventually drew the moon back to Earth (the "Impact Phase"). Bauer will perform with 35mm projector Xenon bulbs, poke berry, popcorn power, "mashed" moon flowers and multiple projections onto the movie screen (Silver Screen), film platter (Moon Disc), and other areas of the exhibition. New 16mm film loops and 35mm slides made by the artist with many of those substances attempt to transmute the physical components of her installation into beams of light.

Binocular Rivalry fills the sprawling 6000 square feet of exhibition space with luminous grids of cascading light, tactile environments, textural fabric projections, and other works that explore the multimodal capacity of expanded cinema. The installation encourages viewers to engage in embodied cognition, moving in and around projected architectures and objects, navigating real and imagined topographies, and exploring unfamiliar perceptual environments. Drawing upon traditions of structural filmmaking as well as cutting-edge concepts of modern psychophysics, the mesmerizing sensory experiences of Binocular Rivalry invites the spectator to take an active role, not only in understanding the processes of mediated perception, but also in creating their own unique aesthetic experiences. The exhibition opens Friday August 24 from 7-9pm, with a screening to follow at 9. There will be screenings and musical performances held throughout the weekend of August 24th, including a performance on Saturday August 25 at 8pm by composer and conceptualist Matthew Gantt. The short work of the American filmmaker Bernhard Fasenfest ranges across many genres and techniques— flicker films, live-action anthropological investigations, found-footage compilations, dizzying abstract studies and carefully ordered sequences of stills, one per frame—yet still seems possessed of a single, unified vision. Fasenfest’s project is, on one level, to channel the spirit of American avant-garde cinema’s twentieth century icons—Brakhage, Sharits, Smith, Cornell—through the lens of twenty-first century technology. On another level, it’s to blur the boundaries between the senses (sight, sound, touch, etc), and other distinctions besides: the theater and the gallery, two- and three-dimensional space, camera eye and human eye. Fasenfest’s filmography currently includes over 50 shorts and multi-media works. He lives and works in New York City. SATURDAY, AUGUST 25, 2018 8/25 New York, NY: Anthology Film Archives http://www.anthologyfilmarchives.org/ <https://hi-beam.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e4e99825c1d97f8de6eaffad3&id=42c8cad995&e=f36020cad0> 3:30 PM, 32 Second Avenue THE FILMS OF RON RICE, PROGRAM 1 THE FLOWER THIEF (1960, 59 min, 16mm. Starring Taylor Mead. Preserved by Anthology Film Archives with support from the National Film Preservation Foundation.) "THE FLOWER THIEF shows some highs and lows in the life of a poet living in North Beach San Francisco. This film is a truer cinematic expression of the 'hip' or 'beat' philosophy of life than any previous representations. I have shown some of the North Beach inhabitants in natural and surrealistic surrounding without a moral to intrude upon the action. Primary attention has been given to spontaneous antics, without too much contrived staging - all too common in the planned film. The mood of the film is frantic. It transmits the feeling of disorder. The film is true to the subject; it is poetic and the images flow." -Ron Rice "The craziest film ever made, a peak of spontaneous cinema and one of the five landmarks of the new American cinema." -Jonas Mekas With: TAYLOR MEAD'S ACTING CLASS (c. 1960, 3 min, 16mm-to-digital) RON RICE AT THE CHARLES THEATER (1962, 3 min, 16mm-to-digital, silent. Filmmaker unknown.) Footage from the final day of the Filmmakers' Festival (July 1962), where Ron Rice received the "Most Promising Filmmaker" award. Appearances by Jonas Mekas, Adolfas Mekas, Herman Weinberg, Michael Putnam, Ira Bilowitz, and Edouard de Laurot. Total running time: ca. 70 min. _____ Let us know about your alternative film/video event!
