[Frameworks] screening announcement
Hi Frameworkers Sheffield Fringe is very pleased to announce the June programme to open at Bloc Projects in Sheffield on Friday June 6th. This year’s extended edition considers the relationship between aesthetics and emergency politics, manifested as experimental narratives. Encountering both domestic and institutional arrangements, cultural conditioning, and national political milieux, the ethics of artistic agency and representation are brought into question as filmmakers cross-examine their chosen subjects from many angles. Improvisation may inform both subject matter and approach, with egos incisively and humorously dismantled; the specifics of a given place or circumstance may be scrutinized. The films, performances, and discussions that make up Sheffield Fringe 2014 are by turns playful and unsettling, with monologue emerging as a strategy for preservation, and dialogue as the option to move things forward into the future. Amongst others the participating artists are Jobina Tinnemans, Solmaz Shahbazi, Walid Raad, Juliette Joffé, Miranda Pennell, Angus Braithwaite, Rose Butler, David Blandy, Marielle Nitoslawska, Farahnaz Sharifi.

[Frameworks] Muybridge and moving image art
Hello, I'm looking for suggestions for films, videos and other moving image/time-based artworks (historical contemporary) that are related to the work of Eadweard Muybridge (yes, I suppose it's all related to Muybridge, technically). Thom Andersen's doc is certainly a great start but also thinking about stuff like Gary Beydler's Pasadena Freeway Stills. Thanks in advance. -Jesse Pires ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks

Check out the Scott MacDonald’s Avant-Garde Film: Motion Studies for a discussion of a number of such films. R.

Re: [Frameworks] Muybridge and moving image art
Hi Jesse, As one example, Paul Glabicki animates Muybridge images throughout Object Conversation. Apart from that example, I'll say that I've not found the use or animation of Muybridge stills to be an indicator of top notch work.

Re: [Frameworks] Muybridge and moving image art
In 2011, San Francisco Cinematheque and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art presented the event Muybridge in Three Movements that included film, dance and a Muybridge-driven conversation on cinematic space and time. The conversation was more of a reading by Rebecca Solnit from her book on Muybridge, the dance piece turned out to be actually about the Lumiere Brothers and the film selection (by Solnit and myself) was as off of a grab-bag as a four-film program could be but two completely relevant films screened were Motion Studies (1995) by Mark Wilson and *INGENIVM NOBIS IPSA PVELLA FECIT *(1974, of which excerpts were screened) by Hollis Frampton. This latter film—which to my knowledge is rarely discussed or screened—directly addresses Muybridge's motion study work in that it consists of endless variations on nude figures performing endless mundane and pointless tasks (up a ladder/down a ladder; water a plant; etc) all in the neutral black-background Muybridge-ian null space. See the program description here: http://www.sfcinematheque.org/muybridge_in_three_movements/ Wilson's film is available from Canyon Cinema: www.canyoncinema.com Frampton's from the Film-Makers' Cooperative: http://film-makerscoop.com/rentals-sales/search-results?fmc_author=250(looks like an excerpt is on Criterion's Frampton DVD set as well...)

Re: [Frameworks] Muybridge and moving image art
Larry Jordan anmates and hand-colors Muybridge imagery in his great film Sophie's Place, though I'm not sure how much the film a a whole has to do with Muybridge. An old review of this film, by me, is at http://www.chicagoreader.com/chicago/film-of-changes/Content?oid=871558 Fred Camper Chicago On 5/15/2014 3:13 PM, Jesse Pires wrote: Hello, I'm looking for suggestions for films, videos and other moving image/time-based artworks (historical contemporary) that are related to the work of Eadweard Muybridge (yes, I suppose it's all related to Muybridge, technically).

Hi Jesse, Stacey Steers' Phantom Canyon (2006) makes particularly elegant use of Muybridge imagery. Best, Jodie Mack Assistant Professor of Animation Dartmouth College ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
