Computers Watching Movies (Annie Hall) in Screen Off at Northwest Film Forum

My work Computers Watching Movies (Annie Hall) will be part of Screen/Off at the Northwest Film Forum on May 22. Curator Vera Petukhova writes that Screen/Off explores “the intertwined historical trajectories of experimental film and video art, and expose[s] the tensions that have emerged from attempts to define the two forms. By juxtaposing projections of 16mm experimental films with new video art, we pit the stylistic legacies of the likes of Bruce Conner and Stan Brakhage against their 2014 descendants (or in some cases, opponents). New video art dissects the principles of Bart Simpson, emojis, chess games, memory’s surreal dimensions, culture collisions and visual music.”
