참여 작품

Fred Can Never Be Called Bald
Director
A sustained, essayistic meditation on the transformation of matter:into new states, new meanings and—via digitization—into the virtual. The title derives from a well-known continuum fallacy—in which a change is said to be impossible because its exact moment of arrival cannot be discerned. Via a distorted collage of YouTube clips, many of which depict extreme physical incidents, the piece attempts to make manifest transformation, to attempt—even if in vain—a better apprehension of the transitive.
All Together Now
Director
Feral tribes are the only inhabitants left in a decimated Los Angeles, sustaining themselves on the debris of an annihilated culture.
Masters of None
Director
At first glance, Masters of None could be the home video of a family of neon-pink hooded figures, passing the time with charades, television, and Jiffy Pop on the stove. As in All Together Now, Masters has no dialogue or clear narrative arc, and while the domestic activities seem everyday, they are infused with suggestions of violence and danger.
Can't Swallow It, Can't Spit It Out
Director
A woman with a viking helmet, bloody nose, and large wheel of cheese rambles across Los Angeles, followed by a cameraman hoping to catch some action.
The Joy of Life
Voiceover (as Harriet Dodge)
A blending of documentary and experimental narrative strategies, combining stunning 16mm landscape cinematography with a bold, lyrical voice-over to share two San Francisco stories: the history of the Golden Gate Bridge as “suicide landmark,” and the story of a butch dyke in San Francisco searching for love and self-discovery. The Joy of Life is a film about landscapes, both physical and emotional.
Whacker
Director
Under a cloudless Los Angeles sky, Kahn—dressed in incongruous heels and a summery dress—runs an electric weed whacker through a hill of overgrown grass.
Let the Good Times Roll
Director
Lost on their way to a desert rock concert, two loners remember the good times.

세실 B. 디멘티드
Dinah

I See You Man
Director
SD video, stereo sound by Harry Dodge and Stanya Kahn 2008
The Time Eaters
Director
Harry Dodge's The Time Eaters, sparked by and in dialogue with Frances Richard's Anarch., follows the orientation of a freshly-minted human to earthly matters, both fleshly and phantasmagorical. This orientation, delivered by an ambiguously-gendered guide, is essentially a monologue that plays with comedic and narrative conventions while also exploring foundational questions about language: its relationship to knowledge, time, abstraction, experience, communication, and intimacy. As the title suggests, the video is also interested in the surfeit of information currently at our disposal, the time we take in downloading it, and the relationships forged by human animals in its haze.
