latest

recent stuff:

I got to do an event at Tree of Liminality recently, similar to the old LowLife Vids'n'Vinyl nights back in the day. This one was outdoors with up to 4 projectors throwing stuff on the wall of the building next door while I spun fall-vibe records. It was probably the last tolerably warm night to hang outside in Cedar Rapids (Fri. Oct. 24), and the setting was perfect. We had a great time.

A few days later I curated 2 nights of Halloween-themed movies and short films at CSPS Hall for Midweek Movie Club. Tuesday, Oct. 28, we watched Witching & Bitching (Las Brujas de Zugarramurdi, dir. Alex de la Iglesia, 2013, Spain).

Wednesday, Oct. 29 I played a bunch of experimental and other short films, starting with the Terror! megamix by Ben Rivers, followed by Damon Packard’s The Early 70’s Horror Trailer, Peter Tscherkassky’s Outer Space, an excerpt from The Mascot by Ladislaw Starewicz, Kostnice (Ossuary) by Jan ŠvankmajerThe Wheel of Torment by Henry-Garon-Ascher collective, a couple of Everything is Terrible! 3min movies, Paul McCarthy's WGG Test, and The Virgin Sacrifice by J.X. Williams. I think I may also be forgetting one. A lot of the shorts came from compilations released by Other Cinema DVD and the "Experiments in Terror" series.

upcoming:

TOMORROW NIGHT: The CSPS Midweek Movie Club gathers again next week,  Wednesday, Nov. 12, 7pm at the CSPS Hall (1103 3rd St. SE) Black Box Theatre on the ground floor. Free admittance, and there will be some drinks and snacks for sale at the popup bar.

Deviating (again!) from previous movie night programming, this evening's offering is a documentary, an art film, and social commentary rolled into one. 
A group of women gather at a healing cabin in the Northern European wilderness, where secrets and communion unfold. Real women, real bodies, real talk. CW: non-sexualized nudity, potentially triggering but universally common subjects such as body dysmorphia, cancer and sexual assault. English subtitled.

Friday, Nov. 14Tree of Liminality are ALSO screening a documentary about poet Andrea Gibson for their Artists in Film series, and I may include some short pieces beforehand. Starts 7pm at Tree of Liminality, 1301 3rd St. SE.
