Day Three - Swallowing Films

What does it mean to make a found footage films, all the challenges of working with a film strip in the digital age we'll find out in MM center through a lecture Stricly Handmade. 

 

As artist Daniel Spoerri transformed exhibition spaces in restaurants in the 60's and developed Food-Art concept, at 4pm jury member Jonathan Pouthier will transform a cinema into a kitchen-on-screen. Films by multimedia artists, filmmakers and activists revolve on food from perspectives that transcend the common physiological needs and convey feeding into multilayered rituals.

M. Biscaya, The Mesh and the Circle by Portugese duo M. Caló i F. Queimadela, In Waking Hours by Belgian author S. Vanagt.
