Skull + Bone by Victoria Rivera


For two hundred years every Mardi Gras has started the same way: Dressed as skeletons, armed with bones, The Northside Skull and Bone Gang wake the city before dawn with drums, chants and ceremonial knocking on doors to warn people against violence, gunplay and other negative influences on the streets.

Films To Break Projectors by cinema iloobia


‘Films to Break Projectors’ glues, scrapes and splices 35mm, 16mm and 8mm film to create unprojectable celluloid collages. Reanimating the material reveals the colour music within and traces of ambiguous narratives that emerge from the complex loops.

Approaching the process of making films in a literal sense, ‘Films to Break Projectors’ glues, scrapes and splices 35mm, 16mm, standard and super 8 film to create defective and unprojectable celluloid collages. These are hand edited and constructed from a combination of self shot footage, orphaned material and frames from a 35mm trailer of Get Shorty retrieved from an abandoned projection room.

After hand editing the film collages, each strip is scanned at very hi-resolution, frame by frame, and reassembled digitally, so that even though in a conventional sense they are defective and unprojectable as films, this process allows the celluloid to reanimate and reveal its potential motion through digital stop motion.

As there are multiple gauges combined in each strip, a single loop can be calibrated for 35mm, 16mm/8mm or super 8mm – each configuration giving a distinctly different dynamic to the moving images.

Considering each strip as visual or colour music is of primary consideration during the films hand editing and construction. Shifts in motion, contrast, colour, rhythm and the juxtaposition of action within the filmstrips alongside one another are all taken into account, akin to creating a musical score.

With the physical length of the strips allowing an inherent duration and rhythm to exist within them, (an aspect emphasised when they are looping), and with each one being a different length to one another, the tempo and nuance of the visual music is constantly shifting.

The project is inspired in part by visiting innumerable projection booths over the past few years at film festivals and cinemas across Europe, North America and the UK. Again and again I would witness an absent space where the 35mm projector once stood, where only traces of these virtually extinct machines remained.

The Shirley Temple by Daniela Sherer


The boundaries between childhood and adulthood become blurry for a kid at his mother’s cocktail party. In this experimental-narrative short, characters, symbols and abstractions interchange to examine the relationships between children and adults, escapism and sexuality.
