A follow up screening of Rennie Taylor's Phonetic Philmmaking, an 20 minute experimental Super 8 film on language, at Tangled Art + Disability. The accompanying book will also be for sale at the event.
"For as long as I can remember, I have always lived with the disruption of language intertwined with my learning disability. “Phonetic Philmmaking”, a 20 minute experimental Super 8 film, satirizes language conventions and transforms them into a new visual vernacular. Shot in Toronto and New York City, it features an original soundtrack by Daniel Brlas. With the help of Cullen Ritchie, elements of the footage were purposely distressed to emphasize textual illegibility. This film explains my world – if only I can find the right word."
This project is generously funded by the Ontario Arts Council and sponsored by the8fest Small Gauge Film Festival and Tangled Art + Disability.
