Re: [Frameworks] films for the anthropocene

2016-02-01 Thread Marco Poloni
Hello Bernie, apologies for my late reply. I took a weekend off, which
once in a while happens.
Your comments I think are to the point. One of my students reacted in
a similar way, stating that what I screened was in a way a curatorial
choice. Which in this case was a difficult process because there is
already a lot of theoretical material on the concept (the
anthropocene), which resulted in reading assignments for the students,
but very little visual material (films, art pieces, ...) that engages
the issues we discussed in a direct way.

Thanks so much for posting this list. It's useful to my current teaching at 
Evergreen which is focused on integrating animation with marine microbiology 
and the anthropocene. In fact I just screened a few of Painlevés films day 
before yesterday.

Re: [Frameworks] films for the anthropocene

2016-01-29 Thread Bernard Roddy
Marco, we don't know one another.  But the question posed here is
appropriate for the list, in my opinion.  This is because film is, in my
opinion, just an element of a larger project, of which we are a part.  For
my part, the films will be shown as film.  I can say that about work I
make.  But it's far from all I will think about or do.  And then, assuming
these questions about art and exhibition are ironed out, we can get onto
the substantive project, if I may call it that.  Where to turn?  Your list
of titles reminded me of an artist who presented a website he built under
the theme, "nothing."  He had such diverse works under the heading that it
struck me as a kind of designer-project that raises questions about the
value of design.  I very much appreciate the reservations such a list and
such a talk provoke for me.  But it means I begin to think about, not film,
not formats, but art . . in an expanded sense, in a curatorial sense, in a
sense that is timely . . may I say, interesting?  Matthew Fuller's Media
Ecologies gets me there.

''la jetée didn't do it to

and yet what haunts me after all these years are the objects (the googles,

Hi Bernie,
Maybe we should have this conversation off list. As I just wrote it's
an itemized list that I shared on request of some members of
frameworks to comunicate what selection of films my idea brought me
to.
To answer specifically, yes they were shown digitally (including my
work, shot on film). I'd be happy to hear of a school of art that has
the budget to rent a 16mm and a 35mm projector for an audience of 12
students. So the choice is to share knowledge with the means available
to you, or to keep it to yourself.

Re: [Frameworks] films for the anthropocene

2016-01-28 Thread Bernard Roddy
This may be a bit academic, but there are conventions of citation within
publishing, as well as a body of thought about "best practices" bearing on
digital uses.  I was remarking on the fact that all of the titles are
written in lower case, and this seems unlikely to be how they were all
titled.  Your list doesn't identify format, either in production or
exhibition.  There might be an interesting conversation you are having in
your programming and with your audience members, but from my experience,
the odds are growing that a film will be shown WITHOUT the artist's
consent, that it will be shown DIGITALLY, and that it will be listed, of
course, in a way that misrepresents the artist's intentions.

Re: [Frameworks] films for the anthropocene

2016-01-28 Thread Marco Poloni

Hey Bernard,
I am not sure I get your point about higher and lower case. What I
sent you is a copy paste of one of my work documents. The films were
organized in groups according to thematic lines and some conceptual
affinities amongst them, and properly introduced.

Hi Marco:

I wasn't watchng when you posted the request, but I have to wonder how
these works were shown, given that everything has been forced into lower
case titles.
