시놉시스
Our Favorite Things is a new DVD/CD release from reigning Kulture Kut-up Kings Negativland. Twenty-seven years of the group's "greatest hits" have become all-new moving pictures in this amazing, years-in-the-making package. Created with 18 other filmmakers from all over the USA (and one a capella group from Detroit), Our Favorite Things is a collaborative project that takes Negativland's sound explorations into the world of film and video. What emerges is a darkly cracked look at 21st century America, juxtaposing paranoia, torture, control, power, weapons, fear, suicide, cola wars, mental illness, and intellectual property issues with the lighter side of dopey advertising, cartoon characters, cleaning products and Jesus.
Humankind has always dreamt of the night sky. Of the infinite freedom offered by the black void, and of the strong, shining beacon inviting us to ascend. This is a story, a history of the events that led up to our conquest of space, and the consequences throughout wider humanity. The film is a collage. Of genres, documentary and comedy. Of media, drawing from painting and film. Of films, cannibalising all film history. Of truth, both objective and subjective. Watch the small steps and let your mind take a giant leap.

Arthur Lipsett's first film is an avant-garde blend of photography and sound. It looks behind the business-as-usual face we put on life and shows anxieties we want to forget. It is made of dozens of pictures that seem familiar, with fragments of speech heard in passing and, between times, a voice saying, "Very nice, very nice." The film was nominated for an Oscar for Best Live Action Short Film.

아방가르드 작곡가 칼하인츠 슈톡하우젠이 영화 사운드트랙을 담당했다. 흑백에 컬러가 부분적으로 구현된 영화는 시네마스코프용으로 제작되었다. 실사와 애니메이션을 결합하고, 빛을 활용해 방 안에서 홀로 편지를 쓰는 한 여인의 내면을 형상화한다. 연필심은 자꾸 부러지고 여인은 계속해서 편지를 쓰는데, 여인의 감정에 따라 창문 밖에 보이는 빛의 풍경이 변화한다. 이 영화는 정신병원에서 줄곧 남편에게 편지를 썼던 엠마 호크에게 헌정하는 것이다. BBC와 파이프라인 필름스의 단편 음악영화 시리즈 ‘사운드 온 필름 인터내셔널 Sound on Film International’의 일환으로 코닝크스튜디오의 키스 그리피스가 제작했다.
Landow rejects the dream imagery of the historical trance film for the self-referential present, using macrobiotics, the language of advertising, and a speed-reading test on the definition of hokum. The alienated filmmaker appears, running uphill to distance himself from the lyrical cinema, but remember, "This is a film about you, not about its maker."
Produced in 1993, The Grand Delusion is one of our most completely realized works. In addition to taking the usual form of a Tape-beatles release (a CD), The Grand Delusion was also delivered in the form of an ‘expanded cinema’ presentation involving three-screen motion picture projections and sound. The screen space for this production is intended to be three times the width of the normal 3 to 4 "Edison" aspect ratio of 16mm. The presentation only uses the full width intermittently, so transitions from one form to the next has been translated here by means of a video effect. As a live performance presentation, The Grand Delusion has been screened in dozens of venues across North America and Europe.
Hamdias, a producer who's set out to break new boundaries, plans to finance a film about torture. According to him, torture, the clash of two or more people, is not only what substantiates basic human relationships but also love and politics. Unfortunately Hamdias dies in a freak accident and his project is grounded. After some time, Galai (Olga Karlatos), who should have been the main actress of Hamdias movie, sets out to complete the controversial project. As soon as filming starts again, the thin line that separates reality from a nightmarish obsession begins slowly to blur.
기이한 이미지에 집착하는 퀘이 형제의 독특한 취향이 이 애니메이션에서 완벽하게 실현된다. 16세기에서 17세기 회화 작품에서는 보는 각도에 따라 감상이 달라지도록 하는 테크닉이 유행했는데, 퀘이 형제는 여기에서 그 기법을 사용해 시각적 효과를 주고 있다.
