David Domingo (Valencia, 1973), also known as Davidson or Stanley Sunday, began his career filming and editing in VHS with a Panasonic camera and video player. These were appropriation re-montages or short stories filmed at home, featuring his sister Alba Domingo (also known as Alba Lavada, Vomitoni or Albon’s) and his grandmother Josefa Fernández. After the death of the latter, he started working with Super-8 and filmed La mansión acelerada, a neogay epic inspired by the myth of turning the house upside down in the parents’ absence, as done by Joel Goodsen’s character in Risky Business.

Del éxtasis al arrebato
Tan sólo el empeño de unos pocos y su pasión por el mundo explica que el cine experimental tenga en España manifestaciones extraordinarias, a pesar de las adversidades que ha conocido, en su producción, distribución y hasta hace bien poco, para ser considerado en el ámbito artístico.

13th dresdner schmalfilmtage

By Marcos Ortega on Fri, 06/01/2012 - 12:47
13th dresdner schmalfilmtage
26th to 28th of Januar 2012
at Motorenhalle. Project Centre for Contemporary Art

... consumption, digestion and the radical otherness
We guzzle, we shit, we are fancy complex systems of consumption and digestion. Despite social conventions and civilized behaviour, we are what we are! Thus eating has always been a main issue in Fine Arts being presented in films as well: As a symbolic character among sex and violence it has been a metapher for human dependency, obsession and drives. The dresdner schmalfilmtage presents works in the foodfilm-programme which show how Super8-filming was influenced by different ways of feeding and different kinds of food. A Best-of Super8-kitchen-classics.

The Wiener Aktionismus on the other hand crosses completely different borders of taste. They do not dread taboos. Naked bodies, automutilations and the forced game with flour, blood and excrements excruciate the audience. The Vienna Actionists digest society based on order, and permanently, purement and self-control and truly excrete them. The radical otherness presents the moviemaker Samantha Rebello. She is nowadays one of the "young and upcoming" in London's film and art scene. The human body and daily objects were transformed by extreme close-ups, strict cuts and different uses of music to unknown materials and newly discovered worlds: the radical otherness.

... Spanish eyes
The 13th festival edition focuses on Spain presenting two special sessions. The development of the "other cinema" in Spain was for a long time influenced by the political and cultural restrictions due to the Franco Regime. After the dictatorship the artificial controversy lacked a political rubbbing against it. The 13th dresdner schmalfilmtage centre two Spanish artists, Albert Alcoz and David Domingo aka Stanley Sunday, who both use filming and innovative optical alienation but with very different results.

ATA: Spanish cooking and its indigestions

By Marcos Ortega on Tue, 12/10/2010 - 17:28
ATA: Spanish cooking and its indigestions
Sunday, November 14, 2010, 20h, $6
Artists' Television Access
992 Valencia Street, San Francisco, California 94110

Curated by Gonzalo de Pedro and Garbiñe Ortega.

ATA presents some of the most the revulsive, eccentric, irreverent, acid dishes of the contemporary Spanish avant-garde cinema. Andrés Duque, María Cañas, David Domingo, Virginia García del Pino and the audiovisual collective Los Hijos are the chefs for this atypical dinner.

- Un minuto antes de la invasión de groenlandia (A minute before the invasion of Greenland) (Los Hijos. 1 min.)
From the Playground of the audiovisual collective Los Hijos (The Sons) formed by Javier Fernández Vázquez, Luis Lopez Carrasco and Natalia Marin Sancho, a one- minute fried experiment.

- No es la imagen es el objeto (It’s not the image, it’s the object) (Andrés Duque. 2008. 12 mins.)
“How many hours could you spend watching this card?”, Pedro P. tells José Sirgado on the film ARREBATO (Rapture, Ivan Zulueta). I keep also my favorite album from my childhood. It’s called “Man, Races and Customs”. Every page reveals me new interpretations, sometimes they are imprecise and weird about who we are and what the world is. – Andrés Duque.

- Lo que tú dices que soy (What you say I am) (Virginia García del Pino. 2007. 28 min.)
Profession or the lack of it as a role to play. The uniform as a costume. The workplace as a set. And in the audience, the society, hoping that the actors will adjust to the script. -Hamacaonline.net

- El perfecto cerdo (The Perfect Pig) (María Cañas. 16 mins.)
The perfect pig: fat, substance, steroids, complete use of it. This piece, constructed as a fable, introduces us into the creation process of derivative work and recycling culture, and searches for the hidden truth of images. -Hamacaonline.net

- Desayunos y meriendas (Breakfast and Afternoon Snacks) (David Domingo. 2002. 7 mins.)
The starting pistol of this outlandish visual fantasy is marked by the moment when two youths, sitting on a bed, are about to watch a film and insert a tape in their VHS. This is where the first link in a chain of stories within stories, a technique often used in David’s work, who frequently draws circles of permeable meanings. -Hamacaonline.net

Total: 64 min.

The film series, New Landscape for the New World, starts with a program at the Pacific Film Archive on Wednesday, November 10 (for futher information visit: bampfa.berkeley.edu) and at San Francisco Cinematheque on Wednesday, November 17, at the Victoria Theater (for further information visit: sfcinematheque.org).

We are grateful for the support of Dirección General de Política e Industrias Culturales of the Spanish Ministry of Culture and the Consulate of Spain in San Francisco.
