[Frameworks] experimental film festival research
All: Hello. I am preparing a new research project on the history of experimental/avant-garde film festivals and thought I might ask the list for advice. I am primarily interested in the early history of these film festivals (pre-1980s) and would love to know about any throughout the world that should be included in this study. I am particularly interested in the history of Knokke Experimental Film Festival and would also love to know if anyone has research materials on this festival, or possibly oral narratives they would be willing to share. Thank you in advance for your ideas.

Re: [Frameworks] experimental film festival research
Hi Greg, I am currently making a documentary about the Xprmntl festival in co-production with the Cinematek. The have a lot of information, a lot of which is in French or Dutch though. (as is the biggest wikipedia entry: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festival_international_du_cin%C3%A9ma_exp%C3%A9rimental_de_Knokke-le-Zoute) Xavier Garcia Bardon has written his masters thesis in history on the festival and is now continuing this research in a phd research project; a 'summary' of this thesis has been published in an issue dedicated to the festival in Revue Belge du Cinema, nr. 43 (decembre 2002). There's more, references in books, pressmaterial,… I've been in contact with a lot of people already and am preparing a series of interviews for the documentary, which I plan to share in their entirety online, but that's future music. regards, Brecht.

[Frameworks] News About the Animation Stand at Millennium
The Oxberry Animation Stand acquired last year by the Millennium has taken a giant leap to being operational. A number of animators have been having serious discussions about how to get it up and running. They seriously want to see an Oxberry in the public use. Lary7 switched out the capacitor on the camera and it seems that everything works perfectly. He is going do a test shoot in an hour. We are all quite optimistic.
