RECYCLED CINEMA

Fusebox Cinema : Session 1 Sunday

4.30pm-6pm

Not too much to remember

Dir. Tony Gault / USA / 2003 / 12:00

Maybe it’s the CIA and the LSD they gave “Richard,” or America and pop culture screwed into our brains and restructuring our identity. Whatever “it” is, get ready for a found footage film that deconstructs the mighty power of narratives and their pervasive effect on the formation of consciousness.

AstroBlack:
THE HISTORY OF HIP HOP EP. 2

Dir. Soda_Jerk / AUS / 2008 / 6:30

A found footage and audio construction, which draws on Afrofuturism, to create a work that positions the sci-fi aspects of hip-hop as a form of social politics by reworking the 1974 film ‘Space is the Place’.

Goldtop Mountain

Dir. Tony Lawrence / AUS / 2009 / 5:30

Joining together 8mm 1960s biker footage, black and white 16mm LSD propaganda, soft-core porn and home movies to create a trip to Goldtop Mountain.

The Marina Experiment

Dir. Marina Lutz / USA / 2009 / 18:00

My father spent 16 years (1959-1975) communicating with me solely through cameras and audio recording devices, documenting the emotional violations I endured under his direction. After his death I exhumed his collection; boxes of reel-to-reel audiotape, super 8 films, and over 10,000 photographs. As the daughter and the filmmaker, I present the evidence.

I Covered My Eyes

Dir. Paul Turano / USA / 2008 / 29:00

A film essay reconsidering television newscasts witnessed as a kid in the 70’s and 80’s and how it shaped my sense of personal and political identity today.

The Lovecats

Dir. MS. & MR. / AUS / 2007 / 3:00

Ms. & Mr. (a.k.a Stephanie and Richard nova Milne) have created The Lovecats through old home movies. Stephanie as a schoolgirl dances in front of her school with an adult Richard digitally inserted as her dancing partner. Wearing a matching costume, he mimics her every move. A rewriting of history so that there was never a time that they were neither apart nor alone.

Baggies!

Dir. Greg Benson / USA / 2008 / 1:00

1950’s TV advertising meets modern day truth in advertising.

Henry Weston Smith

Dir. Tony Lawrence / AUS / 2009 / 5:30

A 8mm decayed journey to the gravesite of preacher Henry Weston Smith.

Dear, Love

Dir. Timothy Orme / USA / 2008 / 7:00

This short film documents “the journey” and examines what “home” is through a series of found postcards.
