Interesting. Do I now need permission to speak? As a Latinx mediamaker (I am 
Cubano) it seems like the perfect example of colonialism, or at least irony, 
for a curator at the Whitney(!) to tell me what I should or should not be 
talking/thinking about. I am sure all the protestors who have staged protests 
in the past shows at the Whitney appreciate it too.

If you want to have that conversation, then have it. I'm not stopping you, but 
don't police what I want to talk about.

Re: [Frameworks] Deleuze and Husserl

2020-08-25 Thread David Baker
Chrissie,

If you would allow  the discussion to expand to Black Lives Matter 
a film comes to mind I have only seen in an excerpt at Anthology on Jan. 26, 
2010  
as part of a program presented by Danspace Project,
Maya Deren’s Unedited Haiti Footage.

When I saw this work I was overwhelmed by its consequence.
I was very familiar with the Ito/Winett edit of this material, 
Divine Horsemen: The LIving Gods Of Haiti (1954).
However the experience I had with the fragment of Unedited Haiti Footage was 
very different,
an order of cinematic magnitude I have never forgotten and always wished 
to see in its entirety.

Immediately after the program I brought my ardor 
to this forum. 
Pip lent important information,

> We screened the totality of Maya Deren's Haiti Footage on April 4th, 2004 at 
> 4pm in the Auditorium du Louvre in Paris. The screening was organized in

> touched the footage or edited it our of allegiance to the voudoun gods.



Vociferous discussion ensued.

Jonas Mekas in a rare appearance by way of Andy Lampert sent this:

"Andy, please let all well-meaning but little informed enthusiasts know that 
the work on preserving HAITI footage has been going for several years now with 
Martina Kudlacek and myself in charge of  it. Martina has put a lot of work 
into it, and has prepared a detailed description of materials , a plan for how 
to go about the preservation work, and a budget for doing that work which in 
2005 was c.70,000 but I figure now it will be over $100,000.  Martina is 
returning back to New York to continue the work this March, so it will be at 
that time that we'll have an updated budget and updated plan how to go about it 
(changing technologies have opened other choices and possibilities). In 2005 
all my efforts to find suport for sponsoring the project ended on dead ears. It 
looks like it took an earthquaque and destruction of half of Haiti, to open 
some ears and eyes. No guarantee that this will also open the checkbooks, but 
all of you, excited well meaning  people should know that I have never given up 
on any of the projects that I worked on, you should know that much about me by 
now. Maya's HAITI film will be preserved and made available to all. And so will 
be our LIbrary wing built too. On the completion of Anthology, our Cinema 
Cathedral, I have been working for thirty years. On completion of Maya's HAITI 
I have been working only for five years. Both cathedrals will be completed, I 
promise you that.  But I want you to know that talking, no matter how 
enthusiastic and well--meaning, has not built any cathedrals yet. I need your 
concrete, in this case your money, to complete   the two cathedrals.   
Jonas"

Ten years later I am wondering how this ineffable work on such an extraordinary 
subject by an auteur as consequential as Maya Deren is still invisible, 
endangered, unknown.

Your esteemed thoughts would be most appreciated.

David

PS Hannah Frank’s Frame By Frame matters to me too.

[Frameworks] Deleuze and Husserl

2020-08-25 Thread Bernard Roddy
Greetings, Michael.

There was ambiguity in my sentence regarding Pip. When I wrote that I think
"he" sees himself as doing philosophy, I am referring to Deleuze.

There is way too much to try to address in your post. But whenever you
introduce audiences, I think you are off track. Or, you are not talking
about philosophical questions, whatever people teaching film studies might
happen to say.

There is a priority on narrative in Delueze. This I see as distracting
given my priorities. And all these questions about language derive from
literary cases of narrative. Remember Pasolini and the "cinema of poetry,"
which was supposed to conceive of cinema as unlike the written story?

Of your quotations, the one from pp. 26 - 27 bears on narration. Deleuze
seems to be asking what explains the appearance of narration when it
appears. And he seems to be less inclined to adopt the terms from
linguistics that were so common in discussion of cinema during the heyday
of Barthes and semiotics.

Only at the end do you take up what I find a manageable question, and the
one at stake for me here. I wouldn't say the question concerns Deleuze
exegesis. It was, rather, in what way are we going to think about
animation?

And yet, given the right focus, I would like to enjoy Deleuze's work. I
just opened to p. 56, where he mentions Bergson and Husserl, and where this
term "movement-image" seems to receive a definition. Think of movement as
non-mental and image as mental. The long history of discussion around how
the mind and body could interact comes back to the surface, but where
"mind" is now "image" and the "external world" is represented by "movement."

That's a history making its way into what we would probably appreciate more
if it presupposed a little less. These are extremely attenuated summaries
of chunks from modern philosophy. And with them Deleuze spins his own
equally abbreviated thinking.

For me, it was about the appearance of movement in cinema and how it is to
be explained. But the cinema has offered a model for explaining the same
appearance in everyday perception. So, what we have is a history of
philosophy that has thought in terms like film strips offer (and long
before cinema, as it happens).

My reference to Husserl presents the alternative. You may want to think
about differences between past and future frames, but you'll end up with
nonexistent parts of something that is supposed to be presently observed
(what is past is gone). So in Husserl we have an incredibly developed
alternative nobody bothers with. (And who is really going to know what
Derrida's thinking about Husserl involved? I mean, seriously.)

Option 1: You understand time as if it is made up of moments that can be
divided. The model is space. Option 2: You realize that you only perceive
what is present. And you also realize that doing geometry isn't the same as
drawing conclusions from your little sketches. In geometry, Husserl says,
you work with essences. There is a point of contact with your sketch, but
your basis for thinking is not empirical.

And so we have Ariadne and the construction of space without temporal
parts. We have geometry done on a grand scale. And we have an alternative
for the person who shoots frame by frame her drawings of figures - or the
navigation of her architectural designs.
