One screening only!
Sydney’s Soda_Jerk – fresh from a Berlin residency – and Sydney based Tony Lawrence showcase their latest works in this celebration of found footage, mash-ups, remixes, plunderphonics and aesthetic detournement. While working in radically different ways both Soda_Jerk and Lawrence engage in experimental filmmaking that explores the image hoard opening up new possibilities.
Soda_Jerk present the world premiere of the epic Pixel Pirate 2: The Director’s Cut (2011) a work that via some very sacred icons re-imagines the role of cinema, the function of entertainment and lays down the gauntlet against all who want to uphold traditional notions of image and sound. Hilarious, gleeful, and genuinely subversive remix entertainment!
Meanwhile Tony presents a quartet of short films, from the rock based Goldtop Mountain, through to the poetic evocation Girl On Fire, the quasi-religious imagery of Monsignor Blood and the almost mystical From Water . The world appears beautifully uncanny after viewing Lawrence’s films.
Soda_Jerk and Tony Lawrence will be in attendance and engage in a post-film Q&A
