The Expedition
Dir. Damon Mohl (UK 2016) 17min 28s

Empyrean 6:30
Dir. kalpana subramanian (USA 2016)

Empyrean is a silent abstract film that explores the poetics and materiality of cinematic light. Shot on a mobile phone the film intercepts light from a 16mm project screening Stan Brakhage's films. An ode to his aesthetic vision and the idea of 'moving visual thinking'. The first part of the series 'Light Mediated: Eyes on Brakhage' (2016)

Director's Statement:
This short experimental film explores the idea of 'light moving in time', an aesthetic that formed the basis of American Avant garde films in the late 50s and 60s.

Structures of Nature
Dir. Martin Gerigk (Germany 2017) 18 min 39s
Structures of Nature is an audiovisual journey in the form of a three-part interaction between four narrators, emergent sound events and rhythmicized synaesthetic video sequences. A symbiosis of visual processes and natural and artificial sounds.

"The Placeless Place" 2016
Dir. Ati Maier (USA 2016) 10 min 28s
he space rider traverses magically through an uninhabited futuristic landscape ,the location of the sight of the 1965 World Fair in Corona Park, Queens, along the East River underneath the Williamsburg Bridge and arrives at Times Square, where she plants her flag. Surrounded by dense crowds of people and the flickering universe of images and video screens, the seemingly looping movement of the space rider comes to a halt when she has an encounter with the first space rider video The Map is not the Territory which appears on one of the digital monitors. A loophole through which the figure of the space rider returns to a deserted, pre- civilized environment on another planet...

Tiger - (Joon Moon)
Dir. Jethro Massey (France 2017) 4 min

It's like a music video from 1998!
