'Sing Swan Song' will premiere.

This is the last year to go through SFU film in the infamous portables on Burnaby campus, and may well be the last time this (or any) SFU class screens entirely on 16mm, so come and celebrate transience and all things analog with us on April 15!

Sing Swan Song

We've just completed a short 16mm film entitled "Sing Swan Song." It's an attempt to create a lucid film, heavily optical printed and composed of both color and b&w handprocessed and lab processed 16mm. Structured around a series of pre-recorded dreams, the images are culled from subconscious responses to imagery from these dreams and arranged in random combinations corresponding to the patterns of the pre-recorded dreams in the timeline of the soundtrack - essentially, we've attempted to create a structure that accommodates the free-flowing space of a dream. It's available on Ipod compatible video on this website (video because it desires multiple viewings, ipod because it's portable and shitty enough to necessitate a viewing on glorious 16mm). We will also be screening it as often as possible, so stay posted.

Pink Lemonade No. 3 / Smoke Signals

Pink Lemonade No. 3 arrived on our doorstep yesterday morning, much to our delight and surprise. My favorite installment thus far in Aaron Moran's steadily growing library of oozing corpuscles and stillborn anatomy, it is worth the time for the disgustingly stimulating exploration of nipples alone, and that is only the first entry. This is but one manifestation of his Smoke Signals publishing project, germinating and flowering right here in the unbearably fecund Lower Mainland, so check out the other projects at http://smokesignalspublishing.blogspot.com/
