Expanding the Reel
A student conference (in English and German) as
part of a course of the Master Studies in Art and Culture, with contributions from Paul Jürgens, Marius Fischer, Eddie van
Gemmern, Matthias Koller, Anna Ebert, Lisa Heuschober, Julia Wiedenmann.
Including a guest lecture by Kim Knowles
(Aberystwyth University, Wales): Ecological Gestures as Expanded Film Practice (6 pm).
The
contributors are dedicated to material and bodily aspects of expanded film practices. Their focus is on photochemical, celluloid-based
practices, manual working of the film material, autogenerative procedures, bacteriological-chemical processes, and reworkings
of media constellations. Their talks constitute speculations regarding the productive/resistant potentials of material, contact,
decay, and preservation.
