Synopsis:

No German review yet:
Science Friction: This film uses stop motion animation of still photographs to convey images of politics and science in the nuclear era. The advancement of science allows man to do things he never would have been able to do without, for good or bad. Politicians are either behind the scenes manipulating those scientists or are using that science for their own goals, primarily in the space race. Everyday items and people are projected upwards - many in the form of rockets - followed by iconic structures, such as the Empire State Building, the US Capitol, the Washington Monument, the Eiffel Tower and the Kremlim, being rocketed skyward as visual representations of that race into space. Achooo Mr. Kerrooschev: A cut-out of Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev sails over newspaper articles as they take place. Combines live photography and collage animation in one film. A La Mode: A short surreal animation created with fashion magazine clippings and sound collages. Breath Death: A surrealistic fantasy based on the 15th century woodcuts of the dance of the dead. A film experiment that deals with the photoreality and the surrealism of life. A collage-animation that cuts up photos and newsreel film and reassembles them, producing an image that is a mixture of unexplainable fact (Why is Harpo Marx playing a harp in the middle of a battlefield?) with inexplicable act (Why is there a battlefield?). It is a black comedy, a fantasy that mocks death … a parabolic parable. See Saw Seams:: An artistic short film directed by Stan Vanderbeek. Stan Vanderbeekiana: The pioneering film experimenter Stan VanDerBeek at home discusses his work, found images, toys, inventions, the importance of his family and friends, and tours his 'moviedrome' for seeing films against the inside of a giant hemisphere. He reflects on 'film as an experience, not an artifact'. 'It is the aesthetic of anticipation, as distinct from that of meditation.' Includes excerpts from his films 'Will', 'See Saw Seams', 'Image After Image After Image,' and 'Poemfield #1'. Panels for the Walls of the World: A short by Stan Vanderbeek. Poemfield n°2: To create his 'Poemfields' (1965-71) series, VanDerBeek worked closely with computer scientist Ken Knowlton and the staff at Bell Labs. Each 'Poemfield' was adapted from poems by VanDerBeek, programmed on an IBM 7094 computer in black and white using a custom language known as BEFLIX, and colored after the fact by artists Robert Brown and Frank Olvey. Poemfield No. 2 features a soundtrack by jazz percussionist Paul Motian, known for his collaborations with Bill Evans. Oh: 'Assassination, falling down, animated drawings from the landscape of memory, mankind falling down, faces with faces, a haunting view of man drawn in brilliant animation graphics.' - S.V., Filmmaker's Cooperative Catalogue ? 7. Symmetricks: Against a black background and a pulsating beat matching white symmetrical geometric flashes around a central orb, white lines are drawn in mirror images vertical to each other. The images created are generally a myriad of faces in silhouette. Those silhouettes however often take on abstract forms in their entirety.
