The inaugural Great Lakes Listening Series will be taking place at the UWM Union Cinema on May 5th @ 7PM.

The Great Lakes Listening Series is a new listening event that presents multichannel sonic artworks within a cinema space. This edition will feature new works of sound art that respond to the natural, ecological, political, and cultural complexities of the Great Lakes Region. The works included in this program will explore the potential of the cinematic listening experience as a uniquely immersive and arresting means of engaging with these complexities.

Ross Lipman presents Tom Chomont
As part of the 72nd International Short Film Festival Oberhausen

In the 1970s and 1980s, Tom Chomont was part of the New York underground scene. Between 1962 and 1989, Chomont, who died prematurely, made around 40 short films: experiments in which he combined colour positives and black and white negatives, which gave them an unmistakable aura – lyrical, erotic, mystical. They are psycho-sexual self-examinations in whose restoration Ross Lipman played a key role. He will present a selection of these films on 16mm.
