Thu. 25 Aug.<\/strong>\u00a0 Time-Slip Film Screenings 18.30 \u2013 21.30 <\/strong>Introduced by Stephanie Moran. Free, all welcome.<\/p>\n

18.30 – 18.50 Shorts (in the spirit of F. Percy Smith):<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Secrets of Nature – In All His Glory (1931)<\/strong> 10.14 minutes<\/li>\n
  2. Secrets of Nature – Abnormal Methods of Nutrition<\/a> (1931 – 1939)<\/strong> 10.27 minutes. These British instructional films reveal the microscopic, cosmicly science-fictional natural world up-close. \u00a0Time-lapse opening flowers, slow-motion bees and pollen, and inter-species reproduction and feeding methods; weirdly Christian title belied by tongues in flowers, bees raising eyebrows, and the depiction of the “severe specialisation in chance”. Time-lapse time-slip vegetable beings: cannibal plants, necromantic saprophyte fungi, the survival tactics of feeble radicals and predation’s monstrousness. [Break<\/strong>]<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    19.00 – 19.30
    \nOrphan Drift, You Its Eyes 94-13<\/em><\/strong>, edit by Mer Maggie Roberts (2013) 31 minutes
    \nCyberfeminist hive-mind collective 0rphan Drift’s radical experimentation with subjectivity through the avatar 0D. Female becoming AI monstrous desiring liquidity; remixed rave-inspired works from the mid to late 1990s. Accompanied by audio from 0D’s Ocosi, Surface and Sadist, and by sound made for the 0D\/CCRU “Syzygy” collaboration in 1999, remixed by CCRU’s Kode9, this screening is a hallucinogenic immersive experience, a meditation on rave, techno culture, and its posthuman potentialities.

    Cyberfeminist artist Shu Lea Cheang’s experimental film portrays a dystopian biocolonial New York in the 90’s, conflating environmental and media racism, the politics of ‘toxic waste and garbage TV’; representing race and kinship, lesbian parenting and cyberhackers.
