I have made several films with live jazz soundtracks performed and composed by 
Lisa Mezzacappa:
Found and Lost
Glorious Ravage
and my Naval Compression uses an excerpt from a composition by Duke Ellington.

Hi Albert,

Jack Chambers' R34 features a section of Ayler's Bells for the last stretch of 
it.

Joyce Wieland's Rat Life and Diet in North America has a violent cacophony of 
free jazz at the beginning that I've not been able to identify.

Joyce's Water Sark has an improvisational soundtrack by Carla Bley & Mike 
Mantler (of the Jazz Composers Orchestra) with Ray Jessel (Broadway composer 
and later novelty songwriter).

Likewise, her Peggy's Blue Skylight is named for the Mingus composition and 
features Paul Bley playing it on the soundtrack.

There are passages of jazz in the collage soundtracks of Arthur Lipsett. (Sorry 
for the Canada-centric response!)

I feel like there's a Kuchar movie that has the Scott Lafaro bass solo from 
Ornette Coleman's Free Jazz on the soundtrack...

There's another Hy Hirsch film, Gyromorphosis, that uses Django by the MJQ/John 
Lewis.

There's always Pull My Daisy.

Stephen

Hello,

I was wondering about the connections between jazz music and avant-garde film 
after watching Bridges-Go-Round (1958) by Shirley Clarke, with the soundtrack 
version created by Teo Macero.

There should be plenty of avant-garde and experimental films where the 
soundtrack is instrumental jazz music. Maybe the field of Visual Music should 
be the most represented but i'm sure there are other films like the one by 
Michael Snow that uses, in this case, free jazz music or improvisation.

Does anyone remember some other avant-garde films with jazz soundtracks?

Right my list is as follows:

Begone Dull Care (1949) by Norman McLaren. Music by Oscar Peterson

Films No. 1 (1948) by Harry Smith. Music by Dizzy Gillespie

Chasse des Touches (1959) by Hy Hirsh. Music by Thelonious Monk

Catalog (1961) by John Whitney. Music by Ornette Coleman

New York Eye and Ear Control (1964) by Michael Snow. Music by Albert Ayler, Don 
Cherry, etc.

Thanks in advance,

Hi Albert,

Ephraim Asili's *Many Thousands Gone* uses an improvised score from a jazz
saxophonist, although I don't know his name.  My understanding was that
they did two takes - the first completely improvised without seeing the
film prior, and the second take with only the first viewing under his
belt.  Ephraim then edited the two takes together for what is now the full
score, with permission from the musician.

You can see the full film on his vimeo: https://vimeo.com/105169029

Cheers,
Kate Ewald

Good call.
The vimeo page that you linked to  includes the name of the musician in the
text  - jazz multi-instrumentalist Joe McPhee.
McPhee is fantastic.

Hi all,

I am requesting some film suggestions for a list of experimental, independent, 
and/or feminist-leaning films that contain a woman -- or multiple women -- 
providing voice-over narration to the images.? 

The works can be from any era, in any format: documentary, animation, fiction, 
found-footage, anthropological, installation-based, etc.

Some well-known examples of this tradition would be: Laura Mulvey and Peter 
Wollen's Riddles of the Sphinx, 1977; Michelle Citron's Daughter Rite, 1978; or 
Su Friedrich's Sink or Swim, 1990.

Any examples of woman-voiced films that may be lesser known, or made outside 
EuroAmerican settings, would be greatly appreciated as well!

Thanks so much.

Sincerely,
Ben

Dear Frameworkers,

If I may, I?m asking for advise from anybody who has any research experience 
with the Anthology Film Archives. I?m doing my PhD dissertation on one of Stan 
Brakhage?s films and I have a limited time frame in which I can do the trip to 
New York and examine the print in a flat table. Following the terms published 
in their site I requested an appointment six weeks ago - 12 labor days later I 
had no answer and I phoned the person in charge. He was very polite and 
explained to me that, yes, he got my e-mail but still had to go through? other 
requests before mine. I emphasized why I was requesting their service and told 
him I would wait for his reply. 

Yet: my time frame is closing and I still have no reply. My question: is it 
usual for them to take this long?? When should I consider that my request was 
dismissed or forgotten before I insist?

For correctness sake I?d appreciate if you could answer to this message 
privately. 

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I was wondering about the connections between jazz music and avant-garde film 
after watching Bridges-Go-Round (1958) by Shirley Clarke, with the soundtrack 
version created by Teo Macero.

There should be plenty of avant-garde and experimental films where the 
soundtrack is instrumental jazz music. Maybe the field of Visual Music should 
be the most represented but i'm sure there are other films like the one by 
Michael Snow that uses, in this case, free jazz music or improvisation.

Does anyone remember some other avant-garde films with jazz soundtracks? 

Right my list is as follows:

Begone Dull Care (1949) by Norman McLaren. Music by Oscar Peterson

Films No. 1 (1948) by Harry Smith. Music by Dizzy Gillespie

Chasse des Touches (1959) by Hy Hirsh. Music by Thelonious Monk

Catalog (1961) by John Whitney. Music by Ornette Coleman

New York Eye and Ear Control (1964) by Michael Snow. Music by Albert Ayler, Don 
Cherry, etc.

Thanks in advance,

Albert Alcoz

Subject: [Frameworks] Laibach on screen

Liberation Day

Laibach serves provocateur "director"'s stunt.  If we were wondering how
compromise looks . . ahem, and who could not be wondering that today? . .
this film, which is screening at Facets until Nov. 11, would be my vote for
"production values" entry into the "experimental" film discussion.

*The Wall Street Journal* today shows Trump on its cover page urging the
North Koreans to "come to the table and make a deal."  Film artists . .
come to the table.

This director of *Liberation Day*, listed as a "North Korean expert on
Facets page devoted to the film, shows you how it's done.  Just try taking
Laibach to perform in North Korea.  We used to watch to see the compromises.

But compromise would not be why the cinema was empty when I attended its
first night.  I had a conversation with the projectionist (during his stint
at the desk before start-time): This part of Facets is non-profit, and that
explained to me how the thing could even get to Facets.  (I had been
wondering how many people would be familiar enough with Laibach and its
significance for art to take interest).

It's not as if we need a behind-the-scenes like this.  What has become
interesting is the look of compromise . . in anything and everything on the
screen.
