 In the late nineties I programmed regular screenings at the Hull Film Theatre 
(Yorkshire England) while teaching at the art school there. I showed a 
compilation of new American films (from the coop) including Sodom. This was a 
public event and the cinema was run by the city council and they were not 
asking to see uncertificated films since the debacle of banning Genet’s Chant 
d’Amour. Sodom came on last before the interval and the ice-cream seller was 
making her way in at the moment of the auto-fellatio (Busby Berkley style) was 
on the screen. I was a little worried that there would be complaints.  The 
ice-cream woman spoke to me and said “Oo I’ve not seen anything like that 
before”
It was all ok.

 Hi all,  
I’m looking for suggestions on films about dreams, dreaming, sleep, hypnagogia,

particularly interesting or uncommon approaches. 
Thanks!

Hi all,
I'm putting together an experimental film screening "In Praise of
Vegetables", (to happen in Scotland, on 27th November).
I would really welcome some suggestions. Initially thinking of some
works such as Suzan Pitt's Asparagus (1978), Barbara Hammer's Women I
Love (1976), Hollis Frampton's Carrots & Peas (1969) - I could
certainly use some more contemporary recommendations, and anything
made by frameworkers here.
Many thanks,

[Frameworks] Werner Nekes

[Michael Kemp]

In 1965 director Werner Nekes made his first film, "Tom Doyle und Eva Hesse", 
portraying the two artists from NYC during their one year stay in 
Kettwig/Germany. 
There is an 8min version floating around on the www, which was also released on 
DVD (and is sold by Nekes for merely 30.00€). 
However, the duration of the original (silent 8mm) film was 30 minutes. 
If anyone out there has any hints on the full version, if it was screened 
somewhere, taped, ripped or if it even still exists, please message me...

  My understanding is that L'Age D'Or was unavailable for decades because 
  Bunuel's patron was scandalized by it, more than from any ban. (The

 I don't know who this patron was, but in the 60s-70s there was a print of the 
 film in the US, but it could only be screened by paying a very hefty rental 
 fee and having the owner come in person with the print. The cost was so high, 
 that the film was only rarely screened. 
 
 
 
  
  My understanding of Frank's Cocksucker Blues is that it was suppressed by 
  the Stones themselves. Perhaps others on the list will know more about 
  this. 
 
 There was a dispute for sure. Frank had unparalleled access and shot sex and 
 needle drug use. OF course the Stones could hire enough lawyers to stop 
 anything. The compromise was that Frank was allowed to screen it a few times 
 a year, with himself present. At least that's what they said when I saw it in 
 Berkeley one summer. Sell out crowd, of course. 
 
 
 
  
  The New York State Censorship Office's rejection of Deren/Hammid's The 
  Private Life of a Cat (for a birth scene) was one of the reasons that Amos 
  Vogel converted Cinema 16 to a private membership club (i.e., film 
  society). With such a club, he no longer had to submit films to the censor 
  board before screening. 
 
 Wasn't the film originally designed for school kids? The birth, of course, is 
 of kittens. Perhaps as two European born folks Hammid and Deren never thought 
 that birth thing through the eyes of US Puritanism. On the other hand, Deren 
 stormed out of Window Water Baby Moving as an invasion of a woman's privacy. 
 
 Kind of funny though. I can't believe any rural folks would object since 
 they're much more likely to have witnessed animal copulation, birth, death, 
 and slaughter. In fact, a lot of folks of the Baby Boom generation have told 
 me that their parents thought breeding the family dog or cat was a useful 
 part of acquainting children with birth. Kids were woken up or called home 
 from school to see the Big Event.

Center for Visual Music is pleased to announce two very special Oskar 
Fischinger events on June 1 at Tate Modern, London.

It's the opening day of Oskar Fischinger's Raumlichtkunst, a new HD three 
screen re-creation by CVM of his 1920s multiple projector cinema performances, 
from newly restored 35mm nitrate film. We have an upstairs room at Tate Modern 
(our own room). The installation runs for a number of months, if you're not 
able to make it that day.

Then at 7pm in Starr Auditorium (June 1), CVM and Tate Film present Optical 
Poetry: Oskar Fischinger Retrospective, featuring 35mm preserved prints of his 
visual music classics. New prints of Spirals, An American March, and more. I'll 
introduce the program.

More about Raumlichtkunst:
www.centerforvisualmusic.org/Raumlichtkunst.html

Raumlichtkunst opens at The Whitney Museum, New York on June 28, through Oct. 
28.

The Raumlichtkunst film restoration by Center for Visual Music was supported by 
an Avant-Garde Masters Grant, funded by The Film Foundation, administered by 
The National Film Preservation Foundation

[Frameworks] Some Call It Loving (1973) production still

[Michael Kemp]

 Somewhere round 1973 or just before Sight  Sound magazine (UK) published an 
issue with a bw performance still from James B Harris's film Some Call It 
Loving.  It was of Carol White (as Scarlet) in her nun's costume, but sitting 
down between takes  demurely drinking a cup of tea. This image doesn't appear 
in the final film. Does anyone still have a copy of that particular issue of S 
 S and would be willing to scan that elusive image for me?
