SALLY GOLDING
Photochemical Hallucinations
16mm Expanded Cinema Tour May / June 2008
Donnerstag, 26. Juni 2008
Scala
Friedrichstrasse 112A,
Berlin-Mitte
1. Stock.
20 Uhr Einlaß - Beginn 21 Uhr
With her 16mm triple projections and film
perfromances, Sally Golding combines
photochemical experiments with explorations of
the horror movie genre, presented as live
perfromance. This unique show is a must for
everbody who loves movies, experimental film or
dark underground groove. Sally lives and works in
Queensland, Australia and is coming to Berlin as
part of her world tour. In Australia, together
with Joel Stern, she also organizes the
Off-Festival "Otherfilm Festival" in Brisbane,
AUS. http://www.otherfilm.org/
Performance Description
Handmade 16mm projector extrapolations /
performances; chaotic distortions of optical,
mechanical, and photochemical processesŠ.
Sally's obsessions with film: archiving,
archeology, and arcana are threaded together to
form a psychedelic and sculptural cinematic
Victoriana vision.
Program:
Not Still Life
A Technicolor nightmareŠ Live explorations into
the sordid past of colour processesŠ Untangling
the 'three colour separation process' in which
three records of the same image are shot and
projected back through RGB filters to make your
eyeballs tingle. Rotating colour wheels are
employed in attempts at a hybrid 'Friese-Green'
system (can you glimpse 'realistic' colour?).
Candied visions and projector performance make
for a gothic live Victoriana experience.
Face of an Other
Obsessions with the horror genre manifest
themselves onto the filmmaker's own body in a
bizarre attempt to meld the real and the hyper
real. A live performance in which humanity has
forgotten itself, or did Hollywood just get
carried away?
(Bloodless: Now and Then)
Bloodless Landscape / Johnny's Ghost
Originally a pile of discarded film leader,
photographic images begin to flicker as
interjections within the apparently empty screen
space. Fleeting moments of landscape imagery
appear distorted by time and light.
An unsettling, gothic 'European' narrative
disrupts the desolate, desiccated Australian
landscape. An Abject Leader mutable expanded
cinema piece, these trees and chemicals have
endured a long projector performance battle with
lenses and prisms many times.
