Lightstruck: 16MM BRAIN FOOD — live event
Lightstruck presents 16mm Brain Food, a night of dazzling 16mm shorts. Unlike the numbing, stultifying hypnotism of our pervasive, persistent hellscape of endless electronic screens, Lightstruck believes that 16mm film projection has a nutrifying effect on the brain and it should be experienced in plentiful doses at semi-frequent intervals. In order to help facilitate this, we offer a unique program entitled 16mm Brain Food, for which we have catered an all-16mm meal of generous portions and incomparable flavors. Spanning a 90-minute selection of eleven films chosen for their salutary and mind-expanding qualities, 16mm Brain Food includes errant eyeballs, psy-fi animations, fragmented dancescapes, flickering abstractions, secret language rebuses, illusionary kinetic sculptures, hand-drawn hypervirtuosities, DIY lenscraft, optical surprises, undisciplined slime molds, and the Capitol Records building launching a rocket into space. Program by Zena Grey and Mark Toscano. Notes by Mark Toscano.
