Re: [Frameworks] experimental films with philosophical text?

[Steve Polta]

*Daniel Barnett's White Heart* "takes off from a series of Wittgensteinian
monologues."
http://canyoncinema.com/catalog/film/?i=152
*Daniel Eisenberg's Displaced Person* incorporates a radio lecture by
Claude Levi-Strauss.
http://canyoncinema.com/catalog/film/?i=823
*Barbara Sternberg's Like a Dream that Vanishes* features an on-screen
exegesis by philosopher (not the filmmaker) John Davis on Hume's
consideration of miracles.
http://www.barbarasternberg.com/Films/Like%20a%20Dream.htm

All are, in my opinion, very interesting films.

Hello,

*Wittgenstein* (1993) by Derek Jarman could be useful. There are some texts
by the philospopher recited by the characters.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIu70Jo38eo

*Dromosphäre* (2010) by Thorsten Fleisch begins with a quotation of Paul
Virilio about speed:
https://vimeo.com/8067013

On another level, I recommend watching the beginning of this film by Peter
Rose, named *Pressures of the Text* (1983):
https://vimeo.com/48773390

Would like to read more suggestions here!

Re: [Frameworks] experimental films with philosophical text?

[Kolberg, Sarah]

Ben –

You may wish to look at Hollis Frampton’s Zorn’s Lemma (the final section) – 
which references (however obliquely) the 11th C philosopher Robert Grosseteste, 
a medieval cosmologist and philosopher who wrote “On light and the beginning of 
forms, which was meant to offer a metaphor of the visible/tangible world as an 
symbol of the spiritual world.

Subject: [Frameworks] experimental films with philosophical text?

Hi all,
Can you recommend to me any experimental, avant-garde films that examine key 
works/thinkers of Western continental or analytical philosophy?

The type of film I'm interested in is not a film that can be analyzed through a 
philosophical lens, but rather one in which a philosophical text makes some 
kind of direct appearance (through a quotation, intertitle, etc.) For instance, 
one example might be the 16mm film Valley Fever by Stephanie Beroes, 1986, 
which features a woman reading lengthy excerpts from Maurice Merleau-Ponty's 
phenomenological thought.
I am currently working on a list of experimental films united by a common 
interest in visualizing philosophical texts.  Alas, this subfield is not my 
main area of expertise, so your help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much!
Sincerely,
Ben

Re: [Frameworks] 16mm E6 - Wittner vs. Agfa

[Sean Weitzel]

Also keep in mind the Agfa/Wittner 200D is a polyester base. Some people
don't like risking it in their camera in the event of a jam causing damage
as well as the base being slightly thinner could affect critical focus. I
shot it in an Auricon CineVoice with a 25mm Lytar and had no issues.

I shot a roll of the agfa/wittner and had it processed at Dwayne's Photo. I
was really unhappy with the green cast. I'm planning to try some old
Ektachrome VNF thats been frozen since new. Anyone have experience with
7250 or 2283 and processing it as E6?

Re: [Frameworks] experimental films with philosophical text?

Péter Forgács' _Wittgenstein Tractatus_ springs to mind.

[Frameworks] experimental films with philosophical text?

[Ben Ogrodnik]

Hi all,

Can you recommend to me any experimental, avant-garde films that examine
key works/thinkers of Western continental or analytical philosophy?

The type of film I'm interested in is not a film that can be analyzed
through a philosophical lens, but rather one in which a philosophical text
makes some kind of direct appearance (through a quotation, intertitle,
etc.) For instance, one example might be the 16mm film *Valley Fever* by
Stephanie Beroes, 1986, which features a woman reading lengthy excerpts
from Maurice Merleau-Ponty's phenomenological thought.

I am currently working on a list of experimental films united by a common
interest in visualizing philosophical texts.  Alas, this subfield is not my
main area of expertise, so your help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much!

Sincerely,
Ben
