Resonancias Fílmicas. El sonido en el cine estructural (1960-1981)
Explorar los intersticios estéticos e ideológicos de la dimensión sonora en el cine experimental es el motivo principal de esta investigación. En estas páginas se estudia el sonido desde una posición analítica que enfatiza la idiosincrasia de los procesos de creación acústicos de los cineastas, las rupturas sónicas que formulan sus películas y los desafíos auditivos que suscitan a la audiencia.

Independent Frames: Exploded View

By Marcos Ortega on Lun, 13/02/2017 - 04:34

Artists discovering animation in the mid-1960s and early 1970s did so in a culture of pop art, psychedelia and Marshall McLuhan’s media theory. They responded by creating overwhelming works of graphic collage, violent flickering colours and sensory overload. Exploded View begins with a look at several foundational works from animators whose explorations of radical form and content stood out in the 1960s, from established figures like Stan Vanderbeek and Disney animator Ward Kimball to lesser-known, underground artists such as Fred Mogubgub and Irene Duga.

François Miron - Paul Sharits
A crucial figure in 1960s-70s avant-garde film, Paul Sharits was a pioneer of structuralist cinema, an approach to filmmaking that emphasizes and explores the formal dimensions and physical properties specific to the medium. A deeply committed and visionary artist, Sharits began exploring the potential of the single frame and the flicker effect in the mid-1960s, and continued to make many films that took as their subject the filmstrip itself.
