    Founded in 1987 by author Sarah Schulman and filmmaker Jim Hubbard, MIX Festival is New York's longest-running queer film festival. Over the years, it has grown into an internationally recognized venue for emerging talents, introducing audiences to the early work of celebrated filmmakers such as Barbara Hammer, Gus Van Sant, Isaac Julien, Todd Haynes, Nisha Ganatra, Jennie Livingston, Jonathan Caouette and many others. The programming at MIX has had a broad influence on film festivals, museums and avant-garde showcases worldwide.

    MIX Festival provides an opportunity for filmmakers, curators and audience members to meet in a grassroots environment to share information and insights about creating non-receptive media. Screenings are augmented by panel discussions, workshops and post-screening parties.

  • Festival of (In)appropriation 2010

    By on

    Los Angeles Filmforum invites film and videomakers to take part in the 2010 Festival Of (In)appropriation.

    WHO: All film and videomakers
    WHAT: Call for entries for the Festival of (In)appropriation
    WHEN: Entries must be received by May 15, 2010.
    WHERE: Send submissions to Jaimie Baron, 10480 National Blvd. #308, Los
    Angeles, CA 90034
    PRESENTED BY: Los Angeles Filmforum

    Santa suit in July? Brussel sprouts for breakfast? Cat in the bathtub? Fish on a bicycle? All of these things are possible, but they are just "not done." At least, in our view, not often enough! Of course, the notion of what is "appropriate" always depends on context – the right time and the right place. What is permissible in one context may not be so in another. Indeed, the "inappropriate" is all about what is in the "wrong" place and at the "wrong" time, which is exactly where we think it should be. Mash-up, machinima, remix, collage, compilation, found footage, détournement – these terms all refer to films and videos that tear materials from one (con)text and place them in another, constantly questioning the limits of what is "appropriate. " At its best, this act of (in)appropriation may produce revelation that leads viewers to reconsider the relationship between past and present, here and there, truth and lie, intention and subversion.
