EXPANDED CINEMA PERFORMANCE & WORKSHOP
Die filmkoop wien ist überaus glücklich im September zwei Filmkünstlerinnen aus Mexiko für eine Performance und einen Workshop begrüßen zu dürfen. ELENA PARDO und AZUCENA LOSANA werden ihre – auf der Berlinale 2024 uraufgeführte – Expanded Cinema Performance NANACATEPEC am Samstag Abend (7. September) präsentieren.
Am Sonntag (8. September) gibt es für alle Interessierten einen umfassenden Workshop: PRECARIOUS PROJECTORS WORKSHOP. In dem Workshop wird jede Teilnehmer:in einen Diaprojektor aus einer Schuhschachtel und unterschiedliche Lichtmodulatoren bauen. Dabei werden 16mm-, 35mm-Filme und andere Materialien verwendet und bearbeitet. Sobald die Projektoren fertig sind, werden wir zusammen Sound generieren, um eine experimentelle audiovisuelle Impro-Performance auf die Beine zu stellen. Dabei werden uns Elena und Azucena ihre Tricks während des Performens verraten.
Unterrichtssprache ist englisch. Es ist kein Vorwissen notwendig.
