Extending the Frame


Media Blackout II by Deniz Johns
We are extremely proud to present eleven artist filmmakers work during this years' Whitstable Biennale, starting with a four week exhibition at University of Kent, School of Arts' Studio 3 Gallery 10 May - 8 June 2018, 11 - 5pm Monday to Friday and a one night screening 'Resisting Expectations' at The Horsebridge Arts Centre on 4th June.

Extending the Frame is an installation of experimental artist film, video and 3D light works featuring; Amy Dickson, Simon Payne, Andrew Pepper and Mary Stark. Bringing together holograms, woven film, recorded mobile phone performance and a classic avant-garde film used anew as a graphic score. These works have been chosen because of their intrinsic use of one or more elements of what we think of as cinema, light, duration, movement and the representation of 3 dimensional space on a 2 dimensional medium. However, that is where the relationship to cinema ends and a new exploration of the materials of film/time based medium begin.

A series of events will take place in the gallery during the exhibition and will includes:

  • A special performance by Deniz Johns and Amy Dickson on 26th April.
  • Installation and multi screen projections by students from the School of Music & Fine Art and Film
  • A programme of short films including; Joan Jonas and John and James Whitney plus others.
  • A one night live screening of work by Simon Payne and Nicky Hamlyn.

More details on this programme will be announced over the next few days.

Abstract Phone Filmmaking Workshop - The Movie

Thanks to all the young people that took part in the workshop last night at Pie Factory Ramsgate and of course Louise Webb who ran a really fun session. Here's a short film of the editing section of the workshop that the children produced from a snippet of Louise's film footage of a bus journey. I'll hope you'll agree they are some very talented young people who mostly had never used Premiere Pro before and completed this in about 20 minutes.  Well done Evie, Stuart and Ruby.

SOUND & IMAGE

Light Begets Sound , Sally Golding (and featured image on main page) 25 NOVEMBER 2018 ARCO BARCO , 29 Military Parade, Ramsgate, CT11 9LG 7-9pm (incl Q&A with Sally and Dan) £6.50 (book in advance, see below) FEATURING: Sally Golding Andrew Kötting Dan Scott & Members of Athelstan Sound For this programme we are dispensing with the primacy of the projected image instead foregrounding sound and image experiments at the edge of artists’ experimental film, expanded cinema and sound art.   The works range from Dan Scotts interest in listening as performance and the multiple ways of listening that exist in contemporary sound art; Sally Golding’s harnessing of light frequencies from amongst other things strobe lights, film projectors and camera flashes creating discordant sonics and harsh lighting, to field recordings of Andrew Kottings Dadaesque performances through the British landscape with tracks from Visionary Seascapes (re-mixed from Jem Finer's music for Swan
