Henri Storck, Histoire du soldat inconnu, B elgium, 1931 Charles Gagnon, The Eighth Day, Canada, 1967 --Bill Wees From: FrameWorks [mailto:frameworks-boun...@jonasmekasfilms.com] On Behalf Of John McAndrew Sent: January 28, 2014 3:50 PM To: Experimental Film Discussion List Subject: [Frameworks] Weapons and the military in avant-garde cinema? Hello all, For a little under a year my main source of income has come through working as a gallery warden in a historical museum specializing in arms and armour (it's a questionable place to work in admittedly, but anyway...). Recently the museum's cinema space has become freely available to staff members to use on evenings whenever it's available and given both the digital and potential film projection facilities available, and the cinema itself being housed in quite a unique location, I've been pondering over the idea of independently programming a selection of experimental/underground/artists' films and videos that ties together the avant-garde as we commonly know it with its original military terminology. Either way, it would make a refreshing change to the current programming decisions of showing Hollywood war and action films that everyone has seen a hundred times over... Can anyone on FrameWorks offer any suggestions for moving image works - both new or old, landmark or obscure, abstract or representative - that may explore such vanguard themes? Or know of any existing curated screenings or written texts that have also explored this connection? I'm open to hearing any and all suggestions for works involving the military and armed forces, weapon technology (firearms, explosives, swords etc), armour, combat and self-defence, historical battles or wars (maybe even fictional ones too), appropriated war/training films, critiques of the armed forces, militias, laws involving the right to keep and bear arms, etc etc etc... Many thanks for reading! Best, John ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks

Re: [Frameworks] Weapons and the military in avant-garde cinema?
IF you want to stretch a bit, there's a group of films that show, document, etc. protests against weapons such as the anti-nuke movement in the 50s on, and films showing anti-war protests. Jonas Mekas, his diary film of the 50s on (under some different titles as it evolved, as I remember--try Lost Lost Lost) includes a very poignant section of people protesting against air-raid drills in the 1950s. Not quite so avant garde, but still original Peter Watkins: Culloden, a you are there docudrama of the turning point battle in the Highlands depicting the devastating power of British rifles against what amounted to stone age weapons of the Scots. Perhaps especially appropriate for a museum of arms. And powerfully anti-war. There have been some powerful films about specific weapon systems: Agent Orange and land mines, etc. Usually in the aftermath and about the after effects. Haroun Farocki's Inextinguishable Fires, on Napalm is pretty powerful, and experimental.

Re: [Frameworks] Tripod for Arri S
I should mention that I work for BH Photo, although my opinions and views are my own and do not represent my employers ideas, I only sent that link back to show there were other options doing a slightly wider search using a search on the same company someone else posted.

Oh, and back on topic - If I recall, and it has been a while, there is something special about the bottom of the Arri S, something about a handle or support that would send a rod up into the bottom of the camera, starting it when you pressed the trigger.

Re: [Frameworks] Tripod for Arri S
Steven: Didn’t know you were at BH. What department? The Arri grip was plastic, and had a 3/8-16 thread, and an activator rod that pushed a switch in the base of the Arri 8. Which was pretty silly, since the 16S held better using the built in thumb-grip and viewfinder tube (with prime lenses). These grips held well, fit the hand nicely, and were used by Pennebaker in his early rigs. Of course they had the problem of being plastic. Penny famously (after unknowingly ingesting some wine laced with acid at the Monterey Pop festival) put his camera on a table and walked away, forgetting the camera was tied to his battery belt. The camera smashed on the floor, and the grip broke off. Penny shot Hendrix using the short stub of a handgrip that remained.

Re: [Frameworks] Tripod for Arri S
Jeff, Your digressions are better than my on the topics. I'm in the Web content division where I work - I write up product descriptions, and the occasional article. Any opinions I express here are of course my own, and not my employers. Separated from wife, needed a stable job and stable schedule. Have to work anything else in around that. I did some shooting on a doc and a short film, so I can make the schedule work between full time job and Kids, but it is a stretch. Please let me know next time you come to NY, I'd love to actually meet you one day. Oh yeah, once in Africa I forgot the Headphones were still attached to the Nagra, man those machines were tough. Glad that I'm not the only one whose done that sort of thing. The director and cameraman never stopped talking the whole shoot, and that was when I decided camera was a better position than sound.
