anti-copyright illegal art. Made entirely of cut-up studio productions,
Hollywood Burn is an epic manifesto against the corporate control of
cultural history brought to us by Soda_Jerk! PLUS! short films by local
culture jammers Adam Bruneau, Anna Spence and Bland Hack (Jamie

4:30 pm, 32 2nd Avenue
MINUS ZERO
by Michael Oblowitz 1979, 50 minutes, 16mm With Rosemary Hochschild, Ron
Vawter, Will Patton, and Eric Mitchell. A psycho noir shot in
high-contrast black-and-white where stalkers, terrorists and government
agents collide. "It promised pleasure and delivered death… nothing ever
happened to her class… there was no reason to feel nervous even in the
heart of New York… you push the fourth button and arrive at the fourth
floor… she was one more person in personville was one more person too
many…"

KING BLANK
by Michael Oblowitz 1983, 71 minutes, 16mm-to-video This screening is
part of: THE WOOSTER GROUP AT LARGE With Ron Vawter, Rosemary
Hochschild, Will Patton, and Gary Indiana. A sour-spirited foul-mouthed
epic of ennui, BLANK is a prescient classic by No-Wave filmmaker
Oblowitz. Set in a motel room at NYC's Kennedy Airport, the film treats
two days in the life of a deadbeat couple, an obsessive husband lost in
a web of psychotic delusion and his immigrant wife. Great character bits
include Ron Vawter forcing Gary Indiana to give him a blowjob in the
bathroom. "A cinephiliac achievement in which the pathology of male
sexuality insists to the point of nausea." –Claire Johnston
2/26
New York, New York: Anthology Film Archives
http://www.anthologyfilmarchives.org/
8:00 pm, 32 2nd Avenue
KEN KOBLAND PROGRAM 3
PROGRAM 3: FOTO-ROMAN (1992, 26 minutes, video) The text is composed of
excerpts of a novel, QUEER AND ALONE, by Jim Strahs (who also plays the
John Doe here.) The voice-over is by Vito Acconci. It's a travelogue of
sorts…or a daydream, by a very odd, somewhat unreliable narrator.
LANDSCAPE AND DESIRE (1980, 40 minutes, 16mm) A (mostly) bus 'tour' of
the American landscape. But this is the old un-franchised one.
Small-town hotels, bus depot waiting rooms, and the endless plains and
sky. A scrapbook of the banal and un-dramatic. Now it feels like a
souvenir from a more modest world. Photographed in Super-8 and
re-printed onto 16mm. END CREDITS (1994, 7 minutes, video) Made as the
end-credit sequence for a film of Ron Vawter's performance piece, ROY
COHN/JACK SMITH, directed by Jill Godmilow. Ron was an extraordinary
performer and actor. The two men he portrays were gay men, at infinitely
opposite ends of the spectrum, social, artistic, and human. PIECE FOR
SPALD (2004, 7 minutes, video) An audio-mix, no image…scraps of Spalding
Gray's comments, from here and there… Assembled as part of a memorial
for the storyteller and old friend, who lost himself in New York harbor
in January of 2004. Total running time: ca. 85 minutes.

RECALL AND MEMORY
Gusztáv Hámos, Katja Pratschke, Thomas Tode in person. "That-has-been,"
wrote Roland Barthes; photography stands for something that has
happened. Film, in contrast, always unfolds in the here and now and can
be seen as a container for memory. Featuring films by Thierry Knauff (Le
Sphinx, 1985), Agnès Varda (Ulysse, 1982), Jerzy Ziarnik (Gestapoman
Schmidt, 1964), Franz Winzentsen (The Fitting 1938, 1985), Helke
Misselwitz (Pictures from a Family Album, 1985), and Janet Riedel, Katja
Pratschke, and Gusztáv Hámos (Fiasko, 2010), this program investigates
these functions in the context of personal and historical memory. (93
minutes)

BLACK MARIA FILM & VIDEO FESTIVAL – JOHN COLUMBUS IN PERSON
Our show will be a selection of prize-winning shorts (mostly
experimental) from this year's festival presented by John Columbus, the
festival founder and director. "Over the last [31] years … John Columbus
has overseen this alternative festival, which embraces the diversity and
passion of the cinematic short form. It provides many directors with
their earliest exhibition opportunities and discovers avant-garde and
idiosyncratic talents. The festival also provides an important,
one-of-a-kind distribution outlet for short films, traveling each year
to over seventy sites and reaching audiences in the farthest corners of
the USA and Europe. Through the years the festival has championed cinema
that resides on the margins of popular culture and in the center of
artists' imaginations."– Museum of Modern Art program notes.

screening of video work examining the role of technology in shaping
visual culture. ///// Screened in conjunction with the MoCP's current

tap a unique creative potential. ///// Featuring work from: Agnes Bolt,
Phil Morton, Takeshi Murata, Monica Panzarino, Jennifer Proctor, Jon
Satrom, John Smith, Scott Stark, and Andrew Norman Wilson. Admission is
free and open to the public.
2/29
New York, NY: Dirty Looks NYC
8:30, Judson Memorial Church, 55 Washington Square South
DIRTY LOOKS: KENNETH ANGER / MICHELLE HANDELMAN
PROGRAM, Kenneth Anger, Inauguration of the Pleasure Dome, 16mm,
1954/66, Michelle Handelman, Dorian, a cinematic perfume, Video, 2012 -
http://dirtylooksnyc.org - Dirty Looks pairs a US video premiere by
multimedia artist, Michelle Handelman with an occult masterwork from the
magus of the American avant-garde - Kenneth Anger. With an emphasis on
costume and color, these works respond to historical models of decadence
and deviance to evoke hallucinatory scenes of voluptuous pleasure. -
Inauguration of the Pleasure Dome took its initial inspiration from the
fabled "Come As Your Madness" party, featuring such luminaries as
Anaïs Nin, artist and occultist Marjorie Cameron, and queer
experimental and filmmaker Curtis Harrington. Anger invited these
guests, in their party attire, to the home of famed Hollywood recluse
Samson de Brier, who also features in Inauguration. Anger's hedonistic
and hallucinatory film, which draws on the work of notorious occultist
Aleister Crowley for its atmosphere of neo-pagan decadence is a
"lavishly costumed magic masquerade party," in the words of Alice
Hutchison. Inauguration builds to a delirious crescendo of editing and
superimposition with an increasingly lurid color palette, as its
revelers become high on a hallucinogenic brew and the celebration
becomes more orgiastic. - In Dorian, a cinematic perfume, Michelle
Handelman reinterprets The Picture of Dorian Gray, emphasizing the queer
undertones and hedonism of the Wilde novel. Dorian features well-known
personalities from the New York drag and burlesque scene, playing
versions of themselves, blurring the line between performance and
reality. Sequinette, a young gender-bending drag queen plays Dorian
Gray. Dorian also features renowned drag performer and theremin player
Armen Ra, media artist Quin Charity, video and performance artist K8
Hardy, and drag legend Flawless Sabrina. Dorian, with its excessive
costumes, glitter, and color, both glamorizes and interrogates societal
notions of narcissism, youth, beauty, and the cult of celebrity. - The
event will also feature a complimentary publication featuring writings
and original artwork.

LE SPECTACLE DES ÉLéMENTS / THE ELEMENTAL SHOW
Drawn entirely from the impressive collection of Light Cone in Paris,
this program features a set of visually entrancing shorts by members of
France's vibrant experimental film culture exploring cinema's
relationship to the elements. Though created by independent artists with
distinct orientations, all of these works emerge from a cinematic
encounter with the substances once held to comprise the fundamental
components of the natural world: earth, water, air, & fire. What happens
when this classical subject is engaged through a distinctly modern
medium like cinema? While certain of these artists utilize film to
rediscover, harness, or communicate the import attributed to the
elements by ancient thought, others offer more timely variations on this
theme, refracting it through the lens of contemporary aesthetic
developments, modern philosophy, or current cultural and political
realities. From either direction, the films collected in this program
provide new ways of conceiving cinema's relationship to the surrounding
world, while also demonstrating that the lure of the elements has not
dissipated with the rise of the modern era. /// FEATURING: Olivier

Chicago, Illinois: Conversations at the Edge
http://www.saic.edu/cateblog
6p, 164 N. State
LAURE PROUVOST: DON’T LOOK UP
The brilliantly anarchic videos of Laure Prouvost run wild with the
rules of narrative and language. Prouvost's fast-paced works often
feature surreal tales jarringly interrupted by self-conscious text,
unsettling imagery, or the artist herself undermining and adding new
meaning to the original story. This evening Prouvost, who is also the
founder and former director of Tank.tv, will present her videos
alongside a selection of contemporary and historical moving image works
by other artists, including John Latham and Owen Land. 1968–2012,
multiple directors, France/Italy/UK/USA, various formats, ca. 90 minutes
+ discussion

Kansas City, KS: FOKL Center
7:00, FOKL
BLACK THORNS IN THE BLACK BOX @ FOKL (KANSAS CITY, KS)
Black Thorns in the Black Box is a touring screening of experimental
film and video by eleven contemporary artists whose work resonates with
the heavy, dark, and mystic obscurity of Black Metal music. Following
its world premier in Kansas City on March 1, 2012 the screening will
travel to Chicago, IL… and beyond. - Based
throughout Northern America and Europe, the participating artists
include Annie Feldmeier Adams for Locrian (Chicago), Gast Bouschet &
Nadine Hilbert (Brussels, Belgium), Una Hamilton Helle (London,
England), Devin Horn (Brooklyn), Hunter Hunt-Hendrix (Brooklyn), Ruth
Jarman & Joe Gerhardt of Semiconductor (Brighton, England), Chris
Kennedy (Toronto, Canada), Marianna Milhorat (Chicago), Jimmy Joe Roche
(Baltimore), Shazzula for Cultus Sabbati (Brussels, Belgium), and
Michaël Sellam (Paris, France). This screening of Black
Thorns in the Black Box is organized into three parts—the
underground, the earth, and the heavens—according to the three
branches of Medieval concepts of music—musica mundana, musica
humana, and musica instrumentalis—to explore how Black Metal has
permeated all known spheres of creation.

KOBLAND/BARR & BENNING PROGRAM
Ken Kobland THE COMMUNISTS ARE COMFORTABLE 1984-88, 55 minutes, video.
Part Bronx reminiscence, part landscape fantasy; part morality play,
part melodrama. A film in many parts with monologue segments written by
James Strahs for Willem Dafoe, Spalding Gray, Ron Vawter, Peyton Smith,
and Luche Sacker. "Filmed and acted with insinuating skill, it invites
analysis but operates most powerfully on a visionary level, transforming
ideas and emotions into a haunting reverie on childhood and its
reverberating memories." –David Sterritt & Burt Barr and James Benning O
PANAMA (1985, 27.5 minutes, video) This collaboration between video
artist Burt Barr and filmmaker James Benning features Willem Dafoe as a
man confined to his apartment on a winter day as he suffers through an
illness. Built on the polarity between hot and cold, the tedious reality
of the man's sickness and the vivid hallucinatory visions of his
delirium, O PANAMA conveys the workings of the subconscious. The
contrast between the bleak urban winterscape and the vibrancy of Dafoe's
imagination fuels the dramatic progression.

A LANDSCAPE OF MEMORIES: THE FILMS OF LEE ANNE SCHMITT
Lee Anne Schmitt's filmmaking falls into two categories, film essay and
landscape cinema. Her work has been compared to that of James Benning
and Thom Andersen (both of whose work has also screened at Northwest
Film Forum). Schmitt's cinema is at once lyrical, historical and
personal. Her features focus on the inevitable trace of man's history on
a landscape, dissecting the strains created by the many inequities found
within America's political and economic systems. Her shorts offer a more
personal exploration of how landscape interacts with personal memory.
Heralded across the globe, Schmitt's film and video work has screened at
venues that include the Museum of Modern Art in New York, SF MOMA, The
Cinema du Reel at the George Pompidou Center in Paris, Anthology Film
Archives in New York and the Pacific Film Archives in San Francisco. We
welcome her to Seattle to present this complete retrospective. Full film

DEAR DIARY
Students from EPFC's 2012 winter youth intensive course Dear Diary will
present and discuss projects created on standard 8mm film during the

students in the history and practice of personal and diary filmmaking.
Through screenings and discussions students explored diverse forms that
personal filmmaking has taken, from amateur home movies to the
avant-garde. The students were encouraged to incorporate the cameras
into a daily filming practice, drawing on their everyday lives.
Filmmakers include Richard Bar, Andrew Becerra, Danielle Dickerson,
Marilyn Hernandez, Chloé Macary-Carney, James Noel, Chloe Reyes, and
Penelope Uribe-Abee. FREE!

SOFTSERVE + GOLDWAVE + SODA_JERK + ASCHER +
OC takes the offensive, opening its Spring season with a session devoted
to the Right to Remix! We're proud to premiere what could very well be
the anthem of the anti-SOPA subculture, Soda_Jerk's Hollywood Burn, a
45-min. battle-cry that has cult classic written all over it. Elvis the
Rebel takes on Moses the Lawmaker and a horde of other pop-cult
antagonists in a righteously hilarious collage-narrative argument
against copyright. ALSO, initiating our 4-show OptrOnica thread, Erik
Wilson—aka Softserve—evokes a sonic space wherein live samples rhyme
with energized audio gestures, in sync with Goldwave's visual
abstractions. PLUS Rodney Ascher's The S from Hell, Everything Is a
Remix, Hitler Reacts to SOPA, and an Animal Charm party platter! Come
early for free TV Sheriff DVDs, People Like Us pastiches, and our
legendary Hi-Art Bar, with $2 homebrews from Lone Mountain!

MATERIAL CONCERNS (ALTERNATIVE PROJECTIONS: EXPERIMENTAL FILM IN L.A.,
SCREENING 20)
One of the key concerns of experimental film, in the tradition of all
modern art, is the stuff of film itself: how it is made, what is it made
of, what are the basic elements of the camera, the celluloid, and the
projector. In experimental film, focusing on the materials and procures
of film-making has come to be known as structuralist film-making, with a
hey-day from the late 1960s through the mid-1970s, but continuing in
much work today. These are several classic examples made in Los Angeles,
with precise control over the instruments of filmmaking, the depth of
good art, and (more often than not) a fair dose of wit. Tickets: $10
general, $6 students/seniors, free for Filmforum members Tickets

THE FILMIC PHOTOGRAPH
This program focuses on the image, the process of finding and conceiving
it, the act of shooting, and then describing it. Film requires the
linear sequencing of photographs, which these filmmakers use to develop
an analytical discourse. Including films by Hollis Frampton
([nostalgia], 1971), Silke Grossmann (The Feelings of the Eyes, 1987),
Shelly Silver (What I'm Looking For, 2004), Esaias Baitel (The Zone,
2003) and Sean Snyder (Casio, Seiko . . . , 2005). (90 minutes)
