A performance of TIME SQUARED by Ken & Flo Jacobs
.
This event is to help raise money for Millennium Film Workshop.

"*A lightweight propeller steadily turns, interrupting a single beam of
light passing through a lens and making The Nervous Magic
Lantern<http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/11/movies/11darg.html> nervous.
Things placed in the path of light result in an illusion onscreen of things
moving in every possible direction and yet never moving at all, except by
the hand of the projectionist.*

*My home-made cine-projector is down to the bone. A lightweight frame
supports a styrofoam roof and walls. The small enclosure contains a small
theater-lamp and empty space. One might hear a whisper-fan whispering.*

*Silent cinema was never this silent. This is hands-on projection with
projectionist as main moving part. Objects are manipulated within this
essence of a machine while, onscreen, we see a vast 3D churning and
morphing that could have been made to happen before the invention of film
and film-transport devices. And perhaps they were, but minds were not ready
for the results.*"   (Ken Jacobs)

*TIME SQUARED* will be preceded by a screening of *THE GREEN WAVE.*

Admission: $10 – $20 Sliding Scale - this is to benefit Millennium, so
larger donations will also be very welcome, well used and highly
appreciated!Location: Anthology Film Archives 32 Second Avenue New York, NY
