Film No. 30
Barn Dance | 1’ | 2020
16mm, 35mm stills, digital video, stereo, colour
Barn Dance is a remix of my film Garbage Helicopter Composition #10(b). Like that longer film, it engineers fluidity out of high velocity disparate and dissonant footage, but always seems about to fall apart. The stream of images are held together by an old ragtime recording from 1904, but brash noises and exertions threaten its flow. A small, popping, celebration of all sorts of bits.
Screenings
2021 Kurtz Film Oberhausen (as part of ‘Comfort and Vision’ touring program)
2021 The One Minutes ‘Comfort and Vision’ curated by Salim Bayri
2020 Strangelove Time-based Media Festival ‘Isolation Diversity Climate’ online programme
