SUMMARY:UCHV Film Forum: IMMERSIVE — An Evening with Lynette Wallworth
DESCRIPTION:Film director Lynette Wallworth presents her immersive work: \n6:30-7:30pm Awavena (2018) (viewing through VR-headsets in the JST lobby) \n6:30-7:30pm Collisions (2016) (viewing through VR-headsets in the JST lobby) \n7:30-8:30pm Coral: Rekindling Venus (2012) (traditional theatrical screening) \n8:30-9:30pm Conversation with Lynette Wallworth \nRegister for this event here. \nAwavena (2018) is a stunning tale of metamorphosis in the Brazilian Amazon told through a virtual reality experience. Lynette was invited to create Awavena during a time of peril and potential for the Yawanawa community as they fight to protect nearly 200\,000 hectares of Amazonian forest. Because it aligns with the sensation of their vision states the Yawanawa chose VR technology as means of sharing their story with the world. The story they wished to share was of the cultural rejuvenation that occurred when they put an end to rigid gender roles that restricted the lives of women. Made in collaboration with Hushahu – the first female shaman of the Yawanawa people – this virtual reality experience opens a portal to the world of the Yawanawa and their practice of using ‘medicines’ to access altered states of knowing. (25 min.) \nCollisions (2016) invites audiences on a journey to the land of indigenous elder\, Nyarri Nyarri Morgan and the Martu tribe in the remote Western Australian desert. In this thought-provoking\, immersive virtual reality experience\, Nyarri shares his story of the dramatic collision between his traditional worldview and the extremes of western science and technology. (14 min.) \nCoral: Rekindling of Venus (2012) is an extraordinary journey into a mysterious realm of fluorescent coral reefs\, bioluminescent sea creatures and rare marine life\, revealing a complex community living in the oceans most threatened by climate change. (50 min.) \nLynette Wallworth is an artist whose work ranges from documentary features through VR films to installations and performance art. Wallworth’s works have shown at venues and festivals across the world\, including the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts\, the American Museum of Natural History\, the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art\, Australian Centre for the Moving Image\, the Smithsonian; Venice Film Festival\, IDFA\, CPHDOX\, London Film Festival and Sundance Film Festival. Wallworth is a member of the World Economic Forum’s Global Future Council on Augmented and Virtual Reality and Director of the Forum’s New Narratives Lab. She is Artist in Residence at the Australian Human Rights Institute\, UNSW and at AFTRS and she currently sits on the board of The Sundance Institute. \nRegister for this event here. \nThe spring season of the Film Forum is dedicated to immersive films.

SUMMARY:Black Earth Film Series: The Call of Mist (Redux) and Handsworth Songs
DESCRIPTION:Filmmaker John Akomfrah screens two of his films. The Call of Mist (Redux)\, set on a remote Scottish island\, is an elegy to his late mother and a vivid meditation on death\, memory and cloning. Initially commissioned in 1998 for the BBC\, the 2012 re-edited version incorporates additional images that were removed from the television version\, recovering Akomfrah’s original conception. Handsworth Songs (1986) is a richly layered documentary representing the hopes and dreams of post-war Black British people in the light of the civil disturbances of the 1980s. It engages with Britain’s colonial past\, public and private memories\, and the struggles of race and class. The title refers to the riots in Handsworth\, Birmingham during September 1985. The soundtrack is influenced by reggae\, punk and the post-industrial noise movement. Black Audio Film Collective was founded in 1982 by a group of sociology\, psychology and fine art students. The Collective undertook all aspects of production and distribution of their films. \nAfter the screening\, watch a pre-recorded conversation between Akomfrah and Tina Campt. \nBlack Earth is a film series organized by Princeton’s Dorothy Krauklis ’78 Professor of Visual Arts Deana Lawson in collaboration with Visiting Professor in the Program in Visual Arts and the Department of Art and Archaeology Tina Campt. It aspires to a twofold intervention in how we envision the multiple ecologies of our planet. On the one hand\, it is a meditation on Earth’s landscape through a deep dive into one of the primary materials that supports and sustains it: soil. It engages soil in its most elevated state\, as nutrient rich black soil that nurtures and enriches a multitude of species. On the other hand\, it hones in on Earth as a social ecology inhabited\, shaped\, and enlivened by Black genius. The series includes films by Khalik Allah\, Rob Herring\, Kahlil Joseph and John Akomfrah and curated conversations with the filmmakers and a selection of their collaborators. \nThe Black Earth series is supported through the John Sacret Young ’69 Lecture Series fund. This event is cosponsored by Princeton’s Department of Art & Archaeology. \nJoin the Event\nThe conversation and screening event is free and open to the public. Advance tickets required; reserve tickets through University Ticketing.

SUMMARY:The Washing Society\, a film by Lizzie Olesker and Lynne Sachs
DESCRIPTION:The Washing Society (45 min.\, 2018) brings us into New York City laundromats and the experiences of the people who work there. Filmmaker Lynne Sachs\, who currently teaches in Princeton’s Visual Art Department\, and playwright Lizzie Olesker observe the disappearing public space of the neighborhood laundromat and the continual\, intimate labor that happens there.  Their film investigates the intersection of history\, underpaid work\, immigration\, and the sheer math of doing laundry.  Dirt\, skin\, lint\, stains\, money\, and time are thematically interwoven into the very fabric of The Washing Society through interviews and observational moments.   The juxtaposition of narrative and documentary elements creates a dream-like\, yet hyper-real portrayal of a day in the life of a laundry worker\, both past and present. \nPrinceton African-American Studies and History Professor Tera Hunter will join us for a post-screening discussion. Professor Hunter’s book To ‘Joy My Freedom: Southern Black Women’s Lives and Labors after the Civil War depicts the 1881 organization of African-American laundresses in Atlanta and was an inspiration for Sachs’ and Olesker’s filmThe Washing Society.

SUMMARY:Light Industry at Princeton: Mechanics of the Brain (1926) 16mm\, dir. V. I. Pudovkin
DESCRIPTION:The year 1926 represents a privileged moment of the young Soviet film industry\, with Pudovkin\, Eisenstein\, Kuleshov\, Vertov\, Barnet\, Room\, Kozintsev and Trauberg all represented by important work—and some\, including Pudovkin\, with more than one. But Mechanics of the Brain\, Pudovkin’s first film\, was like no other. Interrupted on this project by work on The Mother\, his extremely successful first major film narrative\, Pudovkin returned later that year to complete his documentary on the theory and practice of Pavlovian reflexology. This film is of especial interest in a number of ways… \nFor ten years Light Industry has been one of the leading venues for alternative film and electronic art in New York. This fall Light Industry presents at Princeton a selection of highlights from their first decade. The series is curated by Thomas Beard\, a founder and director of Light Industry\, and organized by Devin Fore (German).

SUMMARY:Light Industry at Princeton: One Way or Another (1977) 16mm\, dir. Sara Gómez
DESCRIPTION:A pioneering figure of Cuban cinema\, Sara Gómez was one of the first women to work within the auspices of the ICAIC\, Cuba’s post-Revolutionary film ministry. De cierta manera (One Way or Another)\, her only feature film\, was the first by a woman in Cuba\, the first shot on 16mm in Cuba\, and one of the few made by an Afro-Cuban director. Yet she did not live to see its ultimate realization. Gómez died during production\, at age 31\, and One Way or Another would be finished by Tomás Gutiérrez Alea and other colleagues several years after Gómez completed cinematography. \nFor ten years Light Industry has been one of the leading venues for alternative film and electronic art in New York.

SUMMARY:Light Industry at Princeton: Modesty\, or Immodesty (1991)\, dir. Hervé Guibert
DESCRIPTION:La Pudeur ou L’Impudeur (Modesty\, or Immodesty) is the sole work on video of Hervé Guibert\, a prolific writer and photographer. Guibert filmed himself with a Panasonic video camera between June 1990 and March 1991\, his daily life in Paris and a sojourn on the island of Elba. First broadcast on January 20\, 1992\, at 11:15 p.m.\, on TF1 in France\, less than a month after Guibert’s death on December 27\, 1991\, it is not clear that it has ever been shown publicly in the United States. For this screening\, Modesty\, or Immodesty will be newly subtitled by Christine Pichini\, whose translation of Guibert’s astounding novel Crazy for Vincent will be published by Semiotext(e) this coming spring. \nFor ten years Light Industry has been one of the leading venues for alternative film and electronic art in New York. This fall Light Industry presents at Princeton a selection of highlights from their first decade.

SUMMARY:Light Industry at Princeton: Film and Photo League Program with Gold Diggers of 1933 (1933) 16mm\, dir. Mervyn Le Roy
DESCRIPTION:The National Hunger March (1931\, 16mm\, Film and Photo League); Detroit Workers News Special 1932: Ford Massacre (1932\, 16mm\, Film and Photo League); America Today / The World in Review (1932-34\, 16mm\, Film and Photo League); Bonus March 1932 (1932\, 16mm\, Film and Photo League); with Gold Diggers of 1933 (1933\, 16mm\, dir. Mervyn Le Roy\, musical sequences by Busby Berkeley) \nThese works by Busby Berkeley and the Film and Photo League stand as two remarkable articulations of the same moment of social crisis—the former is classical Hollywood at its most spectacular and immaculately choreographed\, the latter is independent cinema at its most raw\, spontaneous\, and necessary. \nFor ten years Light Industry has been one of the leading venues for alternative film and electronic art in New York.

SUMMARY:Light Industry at Princeton: A Study in Choreography for Camera (1945) 16mm\, dir. Maya Deren\, with Goshogaoka (1997) 16mm\, dir. Sharon Lockhart
DESCRIPTION:“The space of the field\, the ritual temple and the theater stage have been\, historically\, a place within which dancers moved\,” Maya Deren wrote in a 1960 program note on her films. “But cinema provides a different order of space\, is able to create a different kind of time\, can even cause the human body to perform inhuman movement. These choreographies for camera are not dances recorded by the camera\, they are dances choreographed for and performed by the camera and human beings together.” Made with dancer Talley Beatty\, A Study in Choreography for Camera presents a supreme distillation of Deren’s theory. \nAlthough\, as demonstrated in Sharon Lockhart’s debut feature Goshogaoka\, there can also be a choreographic dimension to the fixed camera and the extended take… Here the emphasis lies not on the expressive potential of camera movement and editing\, but rather on the relationship between a subject and its framing\, both in time and space. As with Deren\, this too is a dance which cannot exist but on film. \nFor ten years Light Industry has been one of the leading venues for alternative film and electronic art in New York. This fall Light Industry presents at Princeton a selection of highlights from their first decade. The series is curated by Thomas Beard\, a founder and director of Light Industry\, and organized by Devin Fore (German).

SUMMARY:Light Industry at Princeton: Playback\, Geeta Dutt
DESCRIPTION:Because of the unique predominance of the musical in South Asian popular cinema\, some of its biggest movie stars never appear on screen. Famous in their own right\, unseen playback singers\, via dubbing\, provide the lilting voices that are heard when characters break into song. For tonight’s program\, modeled after the playback singer compilations that have become a staple of Bollywood home video\, Light Industry presents a diverse selection of musical sequences spanning Geeta Dutt’s filmography\, from her earliest hits recorded as teenager Geeta Roy\, through her work in her husband’s canonical films of the 1950s like Pyaasa\, Khaagaz Ke Phool and Mr. & Mrs. 55\, to the last songs she recorded\, for Basu Battacharya’s 1971 Godard-influenced social portrait Anubhav. Culled from numerous sources of varying legitimacy\, the clips range widely in provenance and visual texture\, calling to mind the numerous bodies through which Dutt’s voice transmigrated. \nFor ten years Light Industry has been one of the leading venues for alternative film and electronic art in New York. This fall Light Industry presents at Princeton a selection of highlights from their first decade.

SUMMARY:Light Industry at Princeton: Abstronics\, Mary Ellen Bute
DESCRIPTION:A pioneer of visual music and electronic art\, Mary Ellen Bute produced over a dozen short abstract animations between the 1930s and the 1950s. Set to classical music by the likes of Bach\, Saint-Saëns\, and Shoshtakovich\, and replete with rapidly mutating geometries\, Bute’s filmmaking is at once formally rigorous and energetically high-spirited\, like a marriage of high modernism and Merrie Melodies. In the late 1940s\, Lewis Jacobs observed that Bute’s films were “composed upon mathematical formulae depicting in ever-changing lights and shadows\, growing lines and forms\, deepening colors and tones\, the tumbling\, racing impressions evoked by the musical accompaniment.” Bute herself wrote that she sought to “bring to the eyes a combination of visual forms unfolding along with the thematic development and rhythmic cadences of music.” \nPresented in association with the Center for Visual Music. \nFor ten years Light Industry has been one of the leading venues for alternative film and electronic art in New York. This fall Light Industry presents at Princeton a selection of highlights from their first decade.
