NEW VIDEO MATINEE

Sunday, October 5, 2:00pm. Philbrook Museum of Art, Williams Conference Room, 2727 S Rockford Rd, Tulsa

The Best New Video Artworks by contemporary videographers as gleaned from the Dallas Video Festival selected by the Dallas Video Association Director, Bart Weiss.
This year we are planning to feature the following new video works:
Alfred Guzzetti
DOWN FROM THE MOUNTAIN
Fragmentary shots from the country and city form a hypnotic, internal rhythm. The sound cuts from silent to the camera mike, both highlighting and contrasting the various images. Guzzetti¹s eye in the shot and between them exemplifies the meaning of moving picture. 9 min.
Naomi Uman
HAND EYE COORDINATION
Uman takes objects and actions associated with hand-eye coordination, treats the footage and forms a surreal collage. hands, eyes, tattooing, needlepoint and found footage suffer a Burroughs-like cut job and various film and video effects to create an artistic whole with a touch of humor. 10 min.
Leighton Pierce
PINK SOCKS
What kind of footage of Venice does a tourist shoot? If your tourist has shown their video in many of the major festivals (including this one!) not to mention museums, he might be Leighton Pierce. Get a view of the Piazza San Marco that is a step above your neighbor¹s slide show. 4 min.
Leighton Pierce
WATER SEEKING ITS LEVEL
This was the Dallas Video Festival's favorite experimental piece about a father and daughter. While on an outing she says, ³look, Daddy.² He has been... all along ... and waiting. 6 min.
Anthony Discenza
OBJECT 824260
A trance is a state of detachment
with aspects of the ecstatic. Paradoxically, a trance can be induced by a surfeit of input or by its deprivation... In this work, television imagery is reduced to a flood of unanchored signifiers reorganized as a motive mosaic. 8 min.
Dietmar Offenhuber
BESENBAHN
What exactly gets moved when one travels in time? Created by Dietmar Offenhuber in context with a Web3d project on subjective geometries. 10 min.
Van McElwee
STUPAFORM
A mesmerizing collage of images that gathers the myriad of manifestations of the Buddhist stupa, or pagoda, into one transcendental moment to distill an essence of the stupa itself. The sound of a Napalese bell follows the vector of the unstruck vibration. The result of extensive location shooting. 7 min.
Claudette Lemay
RENTRE CHEZ TOI 2
The second part of Claudette Lemay¹s Rentre chez toi series in which a motionless body experiences agitation, from without and within. 3 min.
GS. I.L. VI/ALMADA LIA
A geometric experimental short generated from a longer live piece performed in Almada, Portugal. Two dimensional frameworks and forms overlap in 3-D and their motion tracks and soundtrack. The iteration of geometric shapes recalls the experiments of Marcel Duchamp and Man Ray. 4 min.

Tinhoko
SPACIAL LINES
Using images from Asia, Europe and the USA, Tinhoko adds a twist to filming by using white orthogonal lines over the screen, all aimed in opposite directions. With a continuous change of animation, color and format (until the individual shots are reduced to microstructures) Tinhoko aims directly at the viewer¹s mind, asking them to creatively vision what is behind the shot. 4 min.

<FRAME>
Director [n:ja] goes for a ride: both in the car and camera. Pure motion along spacial coordinates makes use of all the viewing options available during a car ride, leaving remnants of basic structures captured through the windows. The abstract visuals and pulsing track by Radian makes this more than a Sunday drive. 5 min.

John Sanborn
MMl - Master of video art John Sanborn gives an introspective and personal approach to a portrait of life at the millennial change. It chronicle his leaving San Francisco to take a corporate job in New York, which he loses after 9/11. His return to San Francisco leads him to rethink family, career and life. 61 min.

Admission $7. ($6. Students)
