FILMS for ONE to EIGHT PROJECTORS:
mutli-projector experimental shorts by Roger Beebe
Renowned experimental filmmaker Roger Beebe, whose films have shown around the globe from Sundance to the Museum of Modern Art and from McMurdo Station in Antarctica to the CBS Jumbotron in Times Square, takes to the Heartland in September and October to present a program of his recent mutli-projector films as part of a 6-week US tour.
In his recent films, Beebe explores the possibilities of using multiple projectors-running as many as 8 projectors simultaneously-not for a free-form VJ-type experience, but for the creation of discrete works of "expanded cinema." The show builds from the relatively straightforward two-projector films "The Strip Mall Trilogy" and "TB TX DANCE" to the more elaborate three-projector meditation on Las Vegas, "Money Changes Everything," and on finally to the eight-projector meditation on the mysteries of space "Last Light of a Dying Star." These films are simultaneously performance films (as they can only be screened with Beebe actually running the projectors-and running from projector to projector), technological demonstrations (with a parade of different modes of image making and presentation-16mm and super 8mm film alongside video and digital formats), and significant aesthetic works in their own right.
Tickets: $5 MAC members; $7 non-members
