Body cinema: _1minute69_ – B0DYSC4PES live performance

I got earlier today _1minute69_‘s video clip from their latest performance B0DYSC4PES, presented few days ago at the LMP – Live Performers Meeting in Rome, that gathers live video performers, visual artists and VJs.

_1minute69_ is ‘an artist collective created by french digital media enthusiasts who share ideas and approaches on collaborative works. Bound by a common will to give the audience a playful experience through immersive and/or interactive universes, the collective artists develop pieces based on the grounds of illusion and representation, in the forms of performances, audiovisual installations, architectural projections and video stage designs.’

25FPS interview with Bruce McClure

It seems like I’m publishing here by default video interviews made by 25FPS – International Festival of Experimental Film and Video. Well, yes… I do! It would be a shame to miss out interesting people talking about interesting stuff. As you can see, it can’t be simpler…

Thus, expanded cinema experimentalist and soundscape ‘catcher’ Bruce McClure talks in short about that what’s behind his works ‘There was something else behing it!’ and ‘Treeshade looms up behind the jostling’.

25FPS interview with Phill Niblock

This year, I was forced to miss 25FPS – International Festival of Experimental Film and Video due to private issues that erupted during  September… and I had so many plans… and you know how much I like this festival and Expanded Cinema concept…

Well, I can only swallow the lump and move forward… One of the things I planned for this year’s edition of the festival was to interview Phill Niblock… knowing the propulsive wire and passion of the 25FPS peeps I can be happier right now, because few hours ago they published video interview with Phill Niblock on their Vimeo account…
