[Frameworks] Special screening tonight. CTC w/ Alee Peoples Mike Stoltz IN PERSON

2014-11-02 Thread steve cossman
Frameworkers, 
Greetings from Brooklyn. 
Mono No Aware is excited to present the work of Alee Peoples and Mike Stoltz as 
part of the last program in the inaugural year of the Connectivity Through 
Cinema screening series. Join the artists in person tonight for a very special 
program: 
Oracles and Atmosphere
Waxing and Milking by Alee Peoples(2014, Super 8 with digital sound, 9:00)This 
film mimics music video tropes and equates Los Angeles' favorite food snack, 
the taco, to a lady's special parts. A companion piece to Boys of Summer.
Ten Notes on a Summer's Day by Mike Stoltz(2012, HD, 04:30)We could be anywhere 
but we're right here, humming along.
With Pluses and Minuses by Mike Stoltz(2013, 16mm, 5:00)This morning the 
window blew its glass onto my face. Real morning with pluses and minuses (my 
symbols for truth) / A ground-less and boundless film in which a wall becomes 
a window to a swirling landscape.
Them Oracles by Alee Peoples(2012, 16mm, 7:30)A skeptic investigation of what 
an oracle can be and what it would sound like. Human desire and blind faith 
allow, and maybe even will, these mystic soothsayers to exist.
Boys of Summer by Alee Peoples(2009, Super 8 to Video, 12:30)A pop music essay 
that is both sweet and serious about male stereotypes and juvenile fun. 
Tongue-in-cheek objectifying is mixed with cryptic symbols of longing and 
desire.
Under the Atmosphere by Mike Stoltz(2014, 16mm, 14:30)Filmed on the Central 
Florida Space Coast, site of NASA's launch pads. Dormant spacecraft, arcane 
text, activated landscape, and the surface of the image work towards a 
future-past shot reverse shot.
Discussion and Q  A session to follow. 
MONO NO AWARE’S SCREENING SERIES:The CONNECTIVITY THROUGH CINEMA series will 
present the work of artists, film-makers and curators who are traveling or 
presenting special interactive programs in-person. Our hope is to engage the 
community by showing work with a focus on post-screening discussion.This event 
is sponsored, in part, by the Greater New York Arts Development Fund of the New 
York City Department of Cultural Affairs, administered by Brooklyn Arts Council 
(BAC).
Hope that you can make it out! 
Steve CossmanFounder / Director MONO NO AWARE

[Frameworks] Journeys from Berlin/1971 MOMA print

2014-11-02 Thread Ekrem Serdar
Hey Framers,

  Curious if any of you had rented or seen MoMA's 16 print of Yvonne
Rainers Journeys from Berlin / 1971 somewhat recently and what shape it's
in (specifically sound.) If you did get in touch!

[Frameworks] os x workflow for the web

2014-11-02 Thread Eric Theise
Hello frameworkers,

tl;dr: I want to generate html5-friendly videos from DVD clips that
stay below 50Mb.

I give talks, and use reveal.js (http://lab.hakim.se/reveal-js/) as my
presentation framework. I occasionally want to include excerpts of
films ripped from DVDs. As reveal.js is an html5 framework, I want to
use the video tag to display media. There is conflicting information
out there, but my understanding is that .mp4 and .webm are the formats
best-supported by contemporary browsers. When the presentations feel
complete, I publish them on GitHub. I would like it if anyone could
view the presentations, but it's most important that they work for
either Chrome or Safari on Mac OS X and I am not going to jump through
hoops to make them universally available.

I've used various strategies over the past few years, but do it
infrequently enough that I can't always recollect what I did, and I'd
like help nailing down a workflow that meets my needs.

Most recently, I used Fairmount to copy files and get them into .m4v
format. When I did this a year ago, the results were in .dv format. I
don't recall what I did differently. I use iMovie to edit the clips,
then Share:File, where I have several options to export to .mp4.
Unfortunately, one of the clips I want to use ends up being 58Mb, and
GitHub has a limit of 50Mb.

I have Apple's Compressor which lets me generate .mov files that are
below the limit. But .mov files are not recommended for html5. There
are free and open source tools  services that convert .mov to .mp4,
but this doesn't feel like the right way to go.

What is the right way to go? Ideally I'd like to say: give me an .mp4
or .webm file of the highest quality possible given a 50Mb size limit.

Any suggestions? Thanks for your consideration.

Eric

Hello Eric -

You can use Compressor to create .mp4 files that are small enough to meet your 
needs.

I can provide you with a click-through for creating a custom setting that you 
can re-use in the future.
What version of Compressor and OS X are you using?

Also we can keep this off-list unless others want to learn this specific 
Compressor mojo …

Re: [Frameworks] Cinematic altered states - BFI Southbank screening

2014-11-02 Thread C Keefer
Hello Stuart and list,
Re the BFI program Tuesday, Nov 4, the listing doesn't indicate but some
might wish to know that's a brand new 16mm print of Momentum by Jordan
Belson. CVM loaned this as well as Belson's Samadhi (digital) and John
Stehura's Cibernetik 5.3 (digital). Looks to be a great show.

best regards,

 Thanks for coming to my rescue, good Lady Jessica,
 
 I haven't yet upgraded to Yosemite, so I'm on OS 10.9.5, and I believe
 I'm running the latest version of Compressor (4.1.3). I can't speak
 for the rest of frameworks, but I'm eager to get going on this, so
 feel free to email me directly.
 
 Again, thanks!
