Hi Margaret,

Not sure which of these may or may not have been mentioned - just fetched
this thread from my spam where it landed - however, and I'm sure you've
seen most if not all:

*The Dragon is the Flame, *Mary Helena Clark
*November*, Hito Steyerl
*A Knowledge We Cannot Lose*, Nina Fonoroff
*Tziporah*, Abraham Ravett

there are also three wonderful films (that I know of) made in honor of /
dedicated to Marion McMahon (whose *Nursing History* I also highly
recommend)

*What These Ashes Wanted*, Phil Hoffman
*Behind this Soft Eclipse*, Eve Heller
*Froglight*, Sarah Abbott

[Frameworks] Eulogy Films

2017-04-20 Thread Amanda Thomson 
Hey Margaret,

We met a few years ago at TIE in Colorado.  I hope you're doing well!

I know this message is a bit late, but... I shot this film one year ago
tonight (April 20) on my mother's birthday, 20 years after her death.  I've
got an interneg made, and I'm working on the final print.  I think it might
fit with what you're looking for.

Good Night Birthday

[Frameworks] Artforum

2017-04-20 Thread Bernard Roddy 
Greetings, everyone.  What does it mean when one's name is listed in the
header of a discussion thread.  I'm spooked.

And for those of you, if there are any, who are also searching for the
relationship between art and film (for those who refuse to give up!), or
perhaps those who are forever "untimely," there is relief in . . Artforum
issues from the '70s!

We have not become historians.  (Or should I listen to the scholars, who
always sound so such cautious and sensible?)

Should I send it?  Or do I have to say something useful here?  Maybe there
should be a request for titles of some kind?

Experiments in Cinema, I miss you!

I used to use these in the 70s when making medical films. We used them for
titles and credits, handy once u learn the chemistry, etc.

[Frameworks] Three Seasons Short Film Crowd Funding Campaign

2017-04-20 Thread Maxwell di Paolo 
Hello everyone,
I hate to do this, and if it were for my own project I would not be doing
it at all. Alas, this is not a project I am directing. I am helping out in
doing sound and some work as line producer.

I am working with an insanely talented Chinese Artist; Althea (Mengxi) Rao.
A link to past works is located here. http://altheamrao.weebly.com/. Althea
is also a former Flaherty Fellow. I believe her work *Blindfold* was a
product of this fellowship, but don't quote me on that. I am not attempting
to fund raise for any sort of credit, though I am working on the film.
Rather, I was struck as a fan of her work, and reached out to see if there
was anyway that I could help. I saw *Blindfold *as an installation in the
Abington Art Center, and I was quite taken with it. When I was presented
with the opportunity to do sound for her newest project, I jumped on it.

So with that being said, I am now doing sound and semi-producing for
Althea's newest film *Three Seasons*. The kickstarter site is here:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1834779865/three-seasons-a-short-fantasy-film

The idea came from a proverb from Confucius, where in there is an argument
between two men about how many seasons there are. One man argues there are
four while another argues there are three. Confucius then intervenes and
says that there are three seasons. The man arguing that there are three
walks away feeling victorious. The other man asks Confucius, "Why did you
say there are three seasons, when it is obvious and factual that there are
four?" Confucius responds "That man is actually a cricket. He is born in
spring and dies in autumn. How could he conceive of a world with four
seasons?"

This isn't like most Kickstarter campaigns, where we get as far as we can
and then a well-to-do family member bails us out for the remainder. Even if
that were the case for Althea, the majority of her family is living in
China without access to Facebook or Kickstarter. Again, I am not asking in
vein here. I believe Althea's work is experimental and poignant enough to
garner the interest of the contributors and followers on frameworks. I
apologize if this type of solicitous post offends you, but please don't
respond with a nasty email, telling me why you think it is inappropriate
that I may have posted this here. This has happened on various campaigns in
the past, and the ultimate conclusion was "if you don't like it, you can
ignore it." I respect your choice to donate or not, or even to click on the
post in general. If you made it this far, thank you, regardless of whether
or not you donate. If you cannot donate, you can still help if you would
like by sharing the page on Facebook, through email with friends, or on any
other social media outlet. Truthfully anything anyone of you can do is so
deeply appreciated, and aside from my personal thanks the rest of the crew
will reach out to tell you just how grateful we are.

I am not always the most vocal follower of frameworks. To be honest, so
many of you are so intelligent and know so much that it becomes
intimidating to even reply. Please trust that I am a daily reader of all
posts, and I have often written replies, only to follow by shyly deleting
them or saving them to my drafts folder.

I love you all, I love this thread.

Best,
Maxwell di Paolo
