As In A Land, A Vagary
by Giuseppe Boccassini 15' / found footage / Germany / 2020 As adjustments between images rather than within them, the film roams provissorialy along the hidden folds of things, through which it slips systematically. Phagocytized by its surroundings, the film vanishes within everything that seems to be alive around it. Staring at the horizon, yet landing on the surface, such metamorphoses do not necessarily concern the intimate nature of things, out of respect for that curios dualism which somehow distinguishes them unconditionally as vague and singular cosmologies. |
Giuseppe Boccassini is an Italian filmmaker mainly working in Germany and Italy. His work has been shown at several international film festivals and exhibitions.
His entire film production is distributed by Light Cone. He is in charge of the programme at Fracto, an Experimental Film Encounter at ACUD macht neu, Berlin |

Plume
by Mike Rollo 7' 20'' / 16mm / Canada / 2022 Fingers pluck fallen evidence of flight; placed and traced to make avian light. P L U M E responds to a 2019 State of Canada's Birds Report issued by Environment and Climate Change Canada alerting that the diversity and abundance of Canada's birds are in sharp decline. Thinking about this report and the effects of climate change and our interconnectedness with the natural world, I became an avid bird watcher, recording bird songs and collecting and labelling discarded feathers and down blends. |
The images in P L U M E are imprints from feathers soaked in a plant-based phenol solution, a phytogram technique developed by filmmaker Karel Doing, and reanimated using optical printing and digital editing techniques.
Mike Rollo's photochemical practice explores alternative approaches to non-fiction cinema. His films are place-based, focusing on landscape, rural industry, and communication cultures, with ecological thinking and mindfulness of the shifts, conflicts, and negotiations to themes of obsolescence, age, and decay. He is a founding member of Montreal's experimental film collective Double Negative and Independent Visions in Regina (SK). |

Shadow swells
by Karissa Hahn // sound by Andrew Kim 3'13'' / super8 / Usa / 2022 …..the moment the shadow swells is the moment the image is realized…. "....as the visitation began to manifest itself visibly in the room, at first only as a quavering illumination, like that from a guttering candle, and then as the shape of a woman. She shimmered, and her light shook. Around her the shadows trembled. And then it was Gladys-nobody else-flickering and false, like a figure in a motion picture." Denis Johnson, Train Dreams |
