Taking its cue from our previous ‘expanded cinema’ work The Grand Delusion, Matter, too, uses a three-screen tryptych arrangement in the live presentation. Matter, however, uses the flanking loops a bit differently. Where the previous work created widescreen collage spectacles braced with symmetries and compositional nuance, Matter’s loops superimpose visual rhythms on top of the musical ones, emphasizing first the downbeat, then the accent, then perhaps falling between beats. Something like jazz, the effect is not lock-step, but rather a looser relationship between rhythm and melody, and in this case, the visuals are included in that formula.

The history of Baden-Württemberg begins in 1952 with an imposed fusion. In 1956, opponents of the merger have organized themselves to the point that a referendum is to reverse the decision after the fact. The referendum does not take place until 1970 with a turnout of 62.5% and ends with a vote in favor of the merger of 81.9%. The example of the Baden-Württemberg fusion is used to illustrate how such a fusion takes place, how conflicts are settled, and what the final outcome is.

The Red Paper asserts a voice of power and interpretation recounting the devastating consequences of colonialism. The European male wears a straitjacket, repeatedly mumbling “I did not know, I did not know,” in a familiar contemporary mantra that pleads self-proclaimed absolution from guilt by reason of ignorance of history. Claxton irreverently and consciously opts for a lack of historical specificity in favour of a totalizing haunting by history in the present.

Filmer Dan Wolfe goes for a Citizen Kane vibe here, presenting Eastern Exposure 3: Underachievers in black and white. As this is an East Coast video (mostly NYC, Philly and Florida), the spots are raggedy compared to West Coast videos. Besides the heavy street footage, there is ample vert, mini and park action. The soundtrack is mostly "indie" rock with a dash of hip-hop and metal.

An eight-year chronicle of the filmmaker's father.
This is a 1996 sing-along VHS tape created by regional grocery store chain, Piggly Wiggly's "Piggly Pals Studio." A teacher starts things out by attempting to educate a bunch of 10-year-old preschoolers about nutrition. While, at first, this seems strange, their inclusion in the remedial class is soon justified by asinine responses to their teacher's simple, food-oriented question. None of the kids can properly identify even a single food group, but responses like "bubble gum" and "pickles" serve to illustrate that the two boys are a few steps behind either of their female classmates. Fortunately, the interaction garners the attention of "Inspector Quigley" and a giant grocery store mascot pig. The pair are bound and determined to tackle the seemingly insurmountable task of teaching the feeble kids their food groups.

Paul Cézanne counts as the father of modern painting. Far from Paris, in the South of France, his obstinacy as man and artist made him a pioneer of a new way of seeing. Returning always to the same sujets – the Mont Sainte-Victoire, bathing figures, or still lifes – he abandoned central perspective, distorted body-shapes and broke all the traditional rules of landscape painting. Aided by experts, and descendants of the artist, Matthew Collings gives a thorough introduction to Cézanne’s life and work, exploring the lifelong artistic quest of the man whom Picasso called “my only master”.

Ice falls from the sky as tears plip-plop onto wall-to-wall carpeting. No degree of renovation can enliven the dead that we mourn in our hearts as the storm of the centuries assails our heads with memories of the passing parade that got rained on. A weather diary of May-time misery.
Nu•tka• utilizes image bifurcation to explore the history of colonialization on Vancouver Island, where English and Spanish fleets battled over trade routes in the 18th century. Films of the landscape—the only imagery shown—are superimposed on one screen so that the footage appears doubled. This formal effect is echoed by the soundtrack, which includes excerpts from the sea captains’ diaries, which become increasingly paranoid and irrational. At key moments in the narrative all visual and verbal elements meld together in exquisite clarity.
