Program 1: Exploding the Eye/"I" (April 23rd)

A tribute afternoon in memory of Shirouyasu Suzuki, to celebrate his work in almost half a century behind the camera and to reconnect with the films made by his son Nonoho Suzuki and his son's wife Yuri Muraoka.

In early 2024, Space Cell invited Richard Touhy & Dianna Barrie (Nanolab, Australia) to do the first Kineko workshop. Due to the increase in the price of film and the disappearance of professional laboratories, Korean filmmakers are having difficulty carrying out their projects on film. In particular, the printing of the final 16mm projection copy, after filming, editing and sound processing, has become a very difficult phase in terms of time and financing. To solve these problems, we plan to develop tools to make a less expensive original copy.

In April and May, Refle-x-périmental's screenings will honor the work of Ed Emshwiller, the first American filmmaker to deposit his films at the Paris Films Coop, in 1976. Best known for his pioneering work in the fields of video and computer-generated images, Ed Emshwiller has also produced numerous cine-dances, notably in collaboration with renowned choreographers Alwin Nikolais and Carolyn Carlson.
