[Frameworks] You killed the Underground: in honor of Lawrence Brose
quoting: So whokilled the Underground film? Well to some extent probably artists like me whostressed the Avant-garde, Experimental concept of film and now of video and digitalcinema, stepping away from the Underground's transgressive roots. But also thetransgression changed. In contemporary western culture, many of the life-style conflictshave disappeared even if the underlying political inequalities and repressions remain.Outside the political arena it is increasingly difficult to find content thatshocks. Mainstreamcinema and television exploit all forms of sexuality and violence on a daily basis.The media and news corporations have made us immune spectators. But even withinour own experimental film history, as well as more aesthetic, abstract orpoetic directions,the underground film's broad counter-cultural trajectory has itself sub-divided intospecific territories: feminism; gay identity; issues of race and ethnicity; orsocio- politicaldocumentary. So whatof You killed the Underground Film, or [the real Meaning of] Kunst bleibt. . bleibt .. [the title of Wilhelm Hein's recent work] and Wilhelm Hein'scontinuing work as afilm-maker, artist? This long, and still growing, work has no stylisticconstraints - it can goin any direction it likes or Wilhelm Hein likes. Or maybe even where Wilhelm does notlike. It is still an underground film where anything - any thought, any idea,any image -can and must be accepted. This includes the unthinkable, the unsavory, thetaste- less orthe trivial. As with earlier works like Manson, Biggs, and Hein,(made with Birgit)Wilhelm continues to find his subjects - resolutely points his camera outsidethe conventionaland acceptable. His attitude is not didactic - he is not dealing withissues - he has areal engagement with the people he films. His films remain raw, his nerves and sinewsremain exposed and the works expose us beyond our expectations and desires. And theyare good and engaging works of cinema. He has resisted academic engagement andremains abrasive in his relationship with the institutional world of art. Hehas never splitthe elements or themes of his work into their sub-categories and continues toexplore politics,sexuality, psychology, image, aesthetics, movement and temporality as integrated andinseparable elements of his life and art. He reminds us, we other film-makers,that our jobas artists is to explore any conceivable subject without compromise.

[Frameworks] HDMI to Thunderbolt
I'm using a Thunderbolt to HDMI mini display port adapter to import the output of my Direct TV HD receiver into Final Cut. The adapter is plugged into the computer and the HDMI from the satellite is plugged into the adapter. Pretty straightforward, but it doesn’t work. Final Cut doesn’t recognize any input. I know HDMI is coming out of the satellite receiver because a splitter sends the same signal to my TV. The splitter removes copy protection, so that can’t be the problem. In contrast, I also use a Firewire to Thunderbolt adapter (not HDMI) to import DVcam tapes into Final Cut, and that works fine. I notice that the Firewire/Thunderbolt adapter is NOT called a “mini display port.” It has no name. What does that suggest, and why am I having this problem? ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
Re: [Frameworks] HDMI to Thunderbolt
Hi Gene, The HDMI to Thunderbolt adapter is an output not an input device.For importing HDMI via thunderbolt, check out some of the blackmagic products, like https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/ca/products There are external cards like the BlackMagic Intensity line, or their complex Ultra Studio 4k, and even the Terranex processor. You're looking at around $350 to start up to $2000 but that's what it costs to capture HMDI via Thunderbolt, not a $30 output converter.

Re: [Frameworks] HDMI to Thunderbolt
It seems this is just an output device. It won't work for Gene... Where a capture and playback device, such as the UltraStudio 3D or the Intensity Extreme, captures video from a camera, transfers it to a computer, and additionally lets you output the video to a display other than that of your computer's, UltraStudio Mini Monitor only performs the last of these functions, also referred to as playback.

Re: [Frameworks] Screening possibilities in Rochester NY
Hi Roger - I am the Visiting Artist at Visual Studies Workshop in Rochester, just down the street from the Eastman House. We would love to host you and your films while you are here! We can discuss the details off-list. This offer goes for anyone coming through Rochester who would like to have a screening. Our space is informal (an old auditorium with folding chairs) but our screenings of experimental work have been well-attended by an enthusiastic audience. We can screen 16mm, Super 8 or DV. Projection is done at audience-level, no booth, and we have experienced projectionists and well-maintained equipment. Rochester is a great town for filmmakers! Please contact me if you are interested in showing your work here. Tara Merenda Nelson taranelsonfilms.com On Wed, Dec 17, 2014 at 6:10 PM, Roger D.
