Agitate: In Discreet Space - Peripheries Experimental Film & Video Festival 2024

$10.00

Sunday, September 29th - 2:30 PM

What is the space between the self and the body? The discrete space where identity emerges holds the same mystery as the border of the image or the interstitial moments of black in a film strip. In this program we explore the sometimes obscene and hidden slippages of time-space that veer us off our prescribed timebase. What is the distance between the archive and the artist, the recording and the author, the signified and signifier? In this pursuit of expressing through a nihilistic media, what traditions, cultures, techniques and cures can we look to for warding off the malignant negation and reconvening as a whole spirit? The work in this program gives an answer, recontextualizing the facticity of physical reality as a means of expressing this despair and our temporal persistence.
