Indie Street Film Festival Experimental Program

By Sarah Bex Rice on Lun, 16/07/2018 - 03:04

From 16mm to super 8mm, remixed archival footage to newly shot live action narratives, Red Bank's Indie Street Film Festival is proud to present its first ever program of experimental short films. This highly imaginative and engaging program will explore the nuances of analog nostalgia, choosing film as a medium, and what filmmakers are doing to preserve and archive their works in both a physical and digital sphere.

OFFoff Cinema: Still Moving, an exposition about diafilms

By Günter Hilderson on Dom, 09/10/2016 - 04:41

With its focus on slide film, a medium for which slides are driven through one or more slide carousels, OFFoff’s exhibition Still Moving explores the boundaries of the film medium. Slide film is situated somewhere in the twilight zone where photo, film and experiment meet, calling to mind film classics such as Chris Marker’s La Jetée.

HASENHERZ N°13: Basim Magdy

By Marcos Ortega on Mié, 09/10/2013 - 07:16

The work of Egyptian artist Basim Magdy uses film, painting, slide projection and installation. To him super8 is not a nostalgic medium. In his examinations of war, information systems, scientific theories and the visual vocabulary of mass media marked by paradox and shifts between demolition and renewal, ruins and reconstruction his humor shines through. As if in his "Six Memos for the Next Millennium" Italo Calvino had forgotten to add humor.
