Bad Karma

By Don Best | 00:03:00 | Experimental | 01/01/1995

A collage film that operates on a variety of levels, both emotional and technological, to explore the artists relationship to the end of the 20th century.

George Bassler’s Perpetual Motion Machine

By Berny Hi | 00:03:30 | Narrative-Fiction | 13/01/2014

Following his familyâs untimely demise, prairie homesteader George Bassler bizarrely spends 1945 crafting a Perpetual Motion machine uncannily echoing similarly named inventor Johann Besslerâs 1712 invention, the Perpetuum Mobile. Based on actual events, this film explores obsession with employing mechanical devices to trick time and make everything last forever.

Spanky: to the Pier and Back

By Guy Maddin | 00:04:00 | Experimental | 01/01/2008

Spanky the pug dog takes a walk to the pier and back in Gimli, Manitoba.

Suitcases for the Invisible

By Zarah Laszlo | 00:15:00 | Experimental | 1/1/2004

Suitcases for the Invisible is a six part piece about melancholy without the cheesy balls for its conundrums - it is about despair with or without an ironic sympathy for a "Sugarcube" - like voice-off which does not take herself seriously. In other words, the voice is constantly saying why be sad?; I am so…

Time Away

By Carole O'Brien | 00:07:00 | Experimental | 01/04/2007

Three guides accompany us on a road trip away from time... and towards the transformative end of the road, space...

My Life In Dreams

By Cam Woykin | 00:08:00 | Experimental | 01/01/2008

In the depths of sleep, a man eludes shadows and time as he explores the recesses of his subconscious. Struck by the hypnotic melody of the sea, a vision of an unfamiliar love leads him to rapture, and into the dark waters of uncertainty. Shot on 16mm, Super8 and miniDV, My Life in Dreams follows…

Send Me to the ‘Lectric Chair

By Guy Maddin, Isabella Rossellini | 00:07:00 | Experimental | 01/01/2008

A diva (Isabella Rossellini) is tied to a wooden 'lectric chair. The power is slowly increased, sparks fly playfully, smoke curls upwards. The star becomes ecstatic. Her petite mort rÃªverie produces excitingly strange images - from objects of desire to melancholy flashbacks.

Phantasm

By Andrew Milne | 00:00:53 | Experimental | 01/07/2010

A body moves repeatedly and is recorded on film. Each repetition of the movement phrase is revealed in time on a single 35mm frame. Through a slit-scan photograph the body recorded in time becomes distorted in space evoking spectral imagery. Sacrificing our connection with space we gain a glimpse of our shape in time.

Notes on Gesture

By Solomon Nagler | 00:04:33 | Experimental | 01/01/2010

A visual essay of indexical failures that examine the bliss of ineffable gesturesâ¦

Bad Karma

By Don Best | 00:03:00 | Experimental | 1/1/1995

A collage film that operates on a variety of levels, both emotional and technological, to explore the artists relationship to the end of the 20th century.
