Following the operation against the Israeli sports delegation participating in the Munich Olympics in Germany in 1972, the Zionist entity launched retaliatory raids against the Palestinian refugee camps in Syria and Lebanon (specifically the village of Da'al in Syria and the Nabatieh camp in Lebanon) on September 8th, 1972. In reflecting the sheer barbarism of the Zionist aggression, legendary Palestinian filmmaker Mustafa Abu Ali is compelled to reach for new filmic grammar to reflect on the brutality. This is a film haunted and haunting, with unfiltered images of death. Lifeless babies, features bloated. Children in hospital beds, limbs twisted, faces bruised. Agony. Skulls shattered. Hands crushed. Occasionally, lifeless eyes blink, a twitch of the hand brings something akin to hope – that life persists, life could persist.

William Wegman's lewd stroking of his dog apes television's crass marketing strategies.

In this elegant demonstration, Sandin explains the mistake of using common language concepts and spatial relations to describe what actually can happen on the video screen. The images generated in the tape act according to specific parameters set by the artist. Sandin has stated "The analog Image Processor was programmed to implement the logic equations; if square, if triangle and circle show circle." In this tape, Sandin is in effect arguing for a distinct video vocabulary that replaces the classical concept of perspective. This tape was produced at the University of Illinois Chicago.

A young woman dedicates to a solitary pleasure surrounded by precious cushions. Larvae of flies appear in superimposition moving briskly and multiplying until they conquer the entire frame.

The artist, emphasizing the objective dimension of the film camera, draws attention to the opposition between the space of the frame (what is presented) and the space outside the frame (what is excluded from the frame, i.e. the continuum of reality). According to Katherine Russel, such a strategy “emphasizes the subordination of reality to form. The picture frame, which has its own autonomy, limits the "view" to a simple economy: inside / outside. The nature of the "interior" is determined by the composition and detail, "outside" there is an unknown space that is never fully described. The fixed frame represents the intentionality of phenomenological consciousness, but at the same time it defines the limits of what is visible and knowable. The static frame indicates the subject of perception. The four sides of the frame also direct our attention to what is beyond it, that is: a continuum of reality defined by a kind of anti-continuum of the frame ”.

Short experimental animation by James Gore

I am preoccupied with shadows. The physical, material film is a machine for casting shadows. The experience of film is a mental journey among shadows. Light of the sun is obscured by branches and the leaves of trees, casting shadows on the variegated surfaces of the ground. Shadow shapes make soft images of branches and trees... Spaces between leaves become pinhole lenses, covering the ground with circles of confusion. (MM)

On a very cheerful pop music, this film praises the beauties of the landscapes, wildlife, modern architecture and the sweet life of the settlers.

Another early videotape made when I was exploring the creative possibilities and affordances of the Sony Portapak, recently introduced into Britain.

The ability to see the results immediately afterwards propelled concepts and ideas towards a completed outcome.

"A rich visual elaboration, through optical printing, of an archetypal realm characterized by the opposition/interplay of consciousness and matter in discontinuous time. The central image is of a ghost-ship in a storm, and the entire film contains only four basic images. It is composed of "Le Voyage" (the visual 'passage') and "et, les Elements" (the afterimages/aftershock). In homage to Méliès." (A.R. catalog entry)

Letters from Vancouver comprise two films, made at the same time, that share a common interest in "the medium is the message" (McLuhan), and form a reflexive, self-referential enquiry into the film medium itself. Together, "The Politics of Perception" and "The Framing of Perception" form a meditation on our audio/visual creation, bearer of information and culture, meaning and representation. It is a medium with extraordinary powers, able to evoke the deepest feelings of love and loss, anger and fear, laughter and thoughtfulness, yet of great fragility, fading with time, precarious on a perforated strip of celluloid.

Masses, crowds in the streets, traffic, large gatherings of people for political, religious, cultural events; TV newscasts – the tide of humanity being the matrix from which the alternative movement arose.
