Betreff: [Frameworks] Work Exchange URLs (formerly Frameworks DVD Exchange)

 

Is anyone interested in a work exchange?

A few years ago I organized some exchanges of DVDs. That seems a bit 'old
fashioned' today so how about a list of URLs?

Just post in reply, or email me, and I'll compile a list to share and can
post to the group too.

[Frameworks] Contested Bodies

2013-06-10 Thread Gawthrop, Rob
Contested Bodies

Murdoch House Redruth Cornwall  UK 19th June 6.30pm

Programmed by Jo Millett and Rob Gawthrop for Gaslighting, an exhibition and 
programme of events at CMR Gallery in conjunction with the West Cornwall 
Freedom from Torture supporters group.

Contested Bodies is a programme of short works which include both contemporary 
and historical artists’ films and video that focus on the question of the body 
as a contested cultural site for control and spectatorship.  How can images 
pertaining to or referencing torture be presented without being voyeuristic or 
making an audience complicit?

Artists have often used their own bodies as sites of experimentation and 
inquiry, making films and videos that are not always easy to watch. In Desert 
Storm artist Grace Ndiritu addresses rape as a tool of war, in an uncomfortable 
and at times intimate video.  Mona Hatoum’s work, So Much I Want to Say shows a 
female face whose mouth is covered by male hands,  a voice speaks the title, 
repeatedly.  In her Eyes Skinned, a knife scratches at  the eyes of a hooded 
face, with images of torture projected intermittently on it.  In Quarantine, 
Gina Czarnecki challenges the viewers’ reading of pain, pleasure endurance and 
torture, through the repetitive movements of a dancer. in Sine, Gillian Dyson 
outlines the territory of a gallery through licking the wall, etching a line to 
mark a bodily and spatial limit. Both works by Fiona Leus Lambert prompt 
questions of empathy, through the human face.  In Crying, a woman silently 
cries in front of the camera and in Faces from Hadamar, a series of still 
photographs of victims of the Nazi euthanasia programme slowly pass by.

Thanks to the artists and Lux for their support.

[Frameworks] Liquid Light onto clear 16mm - any tips

2013-06-10 Thread petehumble
I've been reading this thread with interest as I really dont have much idea 
what everyone is talking about when referring to liquid light. I've been 
trying to find out with no success.
Is it home made emulsion? 
Can someone explain or point me to a reference?
Thanks.

 hi devon
 
 i haven't had much luck with liquid light but in my experience (both at the 
 handmade film institute and on my own), with handmade emulsions, it seems to 
 have something to do with the gelatin content. you could try heating up the 
 liquid light with some extra gelatin so that it'll stick better.  also, in 
 the coating, the type of brush and amount of pressure used seems to make a 
 difference.  i've always found that spraying the emulsion is better than 
 applying with a brush. it doesn't seem to matter whether it's on clear 
 acetate or fogged stock - results are equally good.  i find though, that the 
 hand-processing afterwards needs to be quite delicate - and is best done in 
 very cold solutions - less than 10 degrees Celsius if possible, and in small 
 batches.   
 
 please share if you come up with something interesting!

 on Polyester (ESTAR) base is that the emulsions formulated for triacetate 
 don't stick.  There are actually different base types and emulsions and only 
 some combinations work.

Re: [Frameworks] Liquid Light onto clear 16mm - any tips?

2013-06-10 Thread Devon D
Thanks much to everybody for the excellent suggestions – great info! I'll 
report back how it goes. We were processing in trays, and had coated acetate 
film with Liquid Light* emulsion just before with spongepaintbrushes, and dried 
it with hair driers. 
Next we'll try:
- spraying some clear varnish on and drying overnight
then
- coating with Liquid Light and letting that dry overnight
then exposing and
- processing very gently in buckets, in slightly cooled chemicals (hmm, I guess 
we find a fridge nearby? or ice cubes . . . )
and then setting up a better drying rig and drying the strips with hair drier.

Depending how it goes we might try slightly longer exposures and shorter 
development time to lessen the wet wiggly duration of chances for emulsion 
floating off. I'm also feeling like maybe in this technique one should be 
prepared for extraordinary darkroom feats of keeping emulsion and film 
together, almost treating it like marbelling paper where you're carefully 
lifting the base through the liquid to catch the floating suspended emulsion / 
ink / image, then keeping it there to dry. Darkroom acrobatics, hurrah!

2013-06-10 Thread Peter Mudie
Why Liquid Light? It's such a flimsy and temperamental coating, I've never 
really seen it live up to any of its claims over 20 years – even on crockery.
Why don't you simply use Kodak Fine Grain Release stock (7302) - you expose it 
under an enlarger, you can process in traditional bw print chemistry and it is 
durable, scratch resistant and (most importantly) transparent (not translucent).
Liquid Light is an Edsel in the back paddock that looks like it may rip down 
the road, but it has never started (and never will).

[Frameworks] 3M 35mm Splice Tape

2013-06-10 Thread Adam Paradis
Hi All,

I am in search of clear, perforated 35mm splice tape for a specific reason and 
need specific results. I have used the 305 tape but the adhesive seems to not 
stick so well and the splices pull apart. In the past I used the 3M perforated 
tape that would stick great and never pull apart. I see tape listed as 
Acrometal 35mm perforated tape, but know nothing about it. 

I'm curious if anybody has a roll of the older 3M tape around they would be 
willing to sell me, or know anything about the Acrometal tape. 


Thanks, and Cheers

2013-06-10 Thread Ed Inman
I don't think the 3M tape is made anymore. The 305 tape isn't the best, but it generally responds pretty well to heat. You may want to try getting a tack iron or something similar to press down the tape splice (just enough heat to "cure" the tape--not too much to burn the film). It also may help to clean the film splice areas with alcohol before taping to remove any oily residue. Using those two steps the 305 tape should stick OK. good luck, Ed-Original Message-
