NMOM - Ojoboca
16mm projection + sound performances from OJOBOCA (Anja Dornieden and Juan David González Monroy, Berlin) and Matt Davies (Bristol)Visiting from the LaborBerlin artist-run moving image lab in Berlin, international collaborative film and performance project OJOBOCA will share their aesthetic of horrorism in two new projection performances, Pigs & Stones and New Museum of Mankind: A traumatoscopic presentation.
http://www.ojoboca.com/ Bristol Experimental and Expanded Film (BEEF) member Matt Davies will start the evening with My Tape Archive, a phantasmagorical expanded projection of multiple 16mm film loops and field recordings. MTA incorporates playful acoustics created from recording the transformers inside film projectors, these are interwoven with an alchemical mirage of found footage that is reimagined through a process of contact printing and abstraction through light play and lens trickery. http://www.audiblefields.com/ Free (donations encouraged for travelling filmmakers) Friday 10 March, 6-8 pm Union Corner, 96-98 Union Street, Plymouth PL1 3EZ Free entrance (donations encouraged) Produced in association with Marcy Saude |

Camera-less filmmaking workshop: experiments with sound and image making and perception
Roland Levinsky Building (RLB304) Plymouth University Friday 21/OCT 6pm to 9pm free registration is required at: otlip16-drawing-day2.eventbrite.co.uk for more information about all workshops:cognovo.eu/events/otlip16manufactory.php |
What happens when what we draw is transformed by a machine to become a fleeting image – is this still our mark? When we understand what changes in projection can we develop a skill so that we have some control over the experience of the viewer? We will also explore what happens when we introduce sound with the hand drawn moving image, noticing how we instinctively will sound and image to fall into sync through our innate propensity to entrain our perception. We will consider sound/image making and sound/image perception as an integrated, embodied and interactive process.
At the end of this workshop we hope that we will have isolated some of the things that we do when we draw – process, perception and reflection - in a way that liberates the idea of drawing from making something that looks like something else.
Drawing on film is lead by artist Jacqui Knight and cognitive psychologist Sue Denham, with technical support by Guy Edmonds and Rupert Allen

Call for interest in Cinestar Film Lab
|
We're putting out a call for people who are interested in supporting our Cinestar artist film lab in Cornwall. We currently have a Steenbeck (generously donated by David Wilkinson at GenevaStopFilms) at Back Lane West, Redruth and we're in the final stages of making a functioning darkroom/useable lab space and turning the Steenbeck into a contact printer (it can also be used for editing as normal). But we need help! If you would like to make use of this facility and help us get it ready to use, please get in touch and we will make a Cinestar sub-list so that we can take this collective resource further. We will start with a meeting in the lab space to work out what we need to do to get things going. Once the space is working, we are keen to offer opportunities for everyone to make the most of it. Please send an email to us at contactus@cinestar.org.uk to join our lab list. |

Nantes, France 04.07.16 - 09.07.2016 Cinestar contributed to the delivery of workshops at the International film labs meeting in Nantes, France in July. With Jo leading a successful research session in eco-reversal processing. This event brought together almost 50 artists film labs, from five continents, for a week of exchange and discussions about the state of the art of film. We were overwhelmed by seven incredible screenings curated by international programmers from the network, an evening of project presentations and an open barbecue, a « Bac à sable afternoon with public workshops. With two evenings of performances and concerts on the banks of the Loire river in collaboration with Cable#, and a party.
