| THEISE/CORCORAN + SNIDER + STARK + 99 HOOKER + |
| OC‘s semi-annual expanded cinema spectacular happens to coincide with the launch of Moments of Perception, Jim Shedden‘s book on experimental cinema in Canada, and so Mr. Shedden, just in from the Art Gallery of Ontario, will say a few words before the fireworks begin. Among the playlist are four(!) live film-performances, clustered around Eric Theise/Kevin Corcoran‘s Synesthete’s Atlas, real-time digital cartography with textural percussion and manipulated field recordings. Greta Snider and Derek Headboggle up the ante with Instructions from Ancestors, the world premiere of this live-tracked double-projection retinal-rivalry master-work from the much-loved SFSU prof, who spins her zine sensibility into avant stereoscopy. Fellow Bernal multi-projectionist Scott Stark also debuts a piece, Music in the Air, miraculously re-animating long-buried (in Stockton!) Kodachrome treasures through his ingenious propeller shutter. AND: National touring titan 99 Hooker mops the gallery floor with his over-loaded and over-amped Live-AV–even another Cali premiere!–Attention Surplus Disorder. PLUS: a supporting posse of interstitial zingers, boasting Amy Halpern‘s (RIP) Single Wing Turquoise Bird light show!! *$13 |
