fucking love arthur lipsett, even though he's been a big influence on george lucas / coppolla etc it is astounding to me that I made it to 2009 before hearing about him. bruce conner is cool and everything but where the hell were the prints of lipsett's films when I was in film studies 101?
I have a copy of this and I even listen to it: http://www.discogs.com/Arthur-Lipsett-Arthur-Lipsett-Soundtracks/release/792458

i'm pleased da intawebs has somewhat put pay to the "harder core than thou" aspect of fanboyism that has historically plagued the appreciation of "such" film. i think there's much experimental which doesn't evoke any feeling of "magic" - fair enough - the "real", scabrous, harsh & unforgiving in a situationist / docu style has it's place. but i will say in defence of the magical to check at your leisure fellini's "satyricon" & "casanova" & power rangers lost galaxy "return of the magna defender" i do not joke here.can you help me tho, i wonder? i'm looking for an old film i thought was either man ray or duchamp (might not be): something like " poeme cinematique " or similar title - very art deco surrealist i think perhaps concentrating on NY or Paris architecture, shadows, the play of light on water etc any ideas? vielen dank !

ah super, thank you, but not the film in question. i think the one i'm seeking (based on a hugely fuzzy ancient memory) is a little (just a little) more recent. sadly i can't give you much more than that. sorta swimming cap flapper art deco abstract tourist board film dappled shadows scintillations of water reflections. no worries if you're drawing a blank, so am i!o:honorable mention for masaki kobayashi's "kwaidan" ( super cinematic ghost stories in glorious technicolor w/ super toru takemitsu score ), nobuhiko obayashi's "hausu"/ "house" super cheesy scoooby doo style haunted house 70's teen-schmaltz-horror, whatever folks directed "funky forest" gentle contemporary pop-surrealist sketch-show film,most dario argento, most cronenburg, the m.barney canon, and season 2 & 3 lexx haha!

Really LOVE Hollis Frampton.

Been watching a lot of experimental film this last week and he does interest me a bit more - its certainly the static rigour, but also the nhilistic streak. Nostalgia is the example, for me, here is a guy burning away what might have meant something to him, at one time.
Maya Deren also good - more surreal and dreamlike - but she is so good at making something out of dance - Meditation on Violence must be mentioned.

Went to an experimental program at the 20th anniversary of the Innis Film Society tonight. (The Society was around from '85-93; I graduated in '84. When you start attending anniversaries you predate...) There were ten films, and the only one I'd seen before was Anger's Kustom Kar Kommandos. I quite liked four of them. Bruce Conner's Cosmic Ray: excellent use of "What I'd Say," kind of anticipates the Vietnam-rock 'n' roll films like Apocalypse Now and Full Metal Jacket. Brakhage's Dante Quartet: beautiful to look at, amazing to think about (how he did it). Owen Land's On the Marriage Broker Joke... (extremely long title): bizarre, very funny, impossible to describe. My favourite was Keewatin Dewdney's Maltese Cross Movement from '67. Wish I could find it online (what's the name of that site that houses all sorts of experimental films you can watch for free? I always forget its name). Unsettling.
I feel like I can take most anything in the way of aggressive sound and/or image, but 12 minutes of Paul Sharits' Touching was a real test.

Saw Asphalt Watches at Cinematheque Vancouver a week or two ago. I wasn't quite sure what to expect - kind of thought it would be cheap and with a teenagey tOtaLLy rAnDoM feel to it... but it was really very nice. Surprisingly warm in its treatment of the odd characters occupying its space. The two reviews I read said it dragged at times, and I kept thinking to myself "is this when it's going to start dragging?" and in the middle of that, the film ended.
I'd watch it again.
