Dear Pip, Elise, Philippe, Marilyn, Damon, Dave, Andy, Michael, and... I hope I am not forgetting anyone, Thank you very much for the insightful input. This is a wonderful starter! How come I did not think immediately of Smithson, Snow and Brackhage? Because of having seen their work a lot? You

2015-12-07 Thread Marco Poloni
Dear Frameworkers, I am writing you to ask if you could indicate me some films that are connected to the concept of the anthropocene (the geological time when the activity of the human species started to have a significant impact on the living system of planet earth). I am giving a workshop in

Bill Morrison's films could be interesting. I am thinking of Footprints which references the evolution of mankind, but he has made several recently about great floods, showing how nature makes an impact on human life (The Highwater Trilogy, Who by Water). - Pip Chodorov At 17:37 +0100

I'd second the suggestion of Spiral Jetty - it was the first film that came to my mind! Also Michael Snow's La Region Centrale. Several of Robbie Land's films that draw on photosynthesis or other processes of natural light, like Matters of Bioluminescence. Andy Ditzler Founder and curator,
