Oh what a night

Mash cinema was mad fun. Dope. Super rad. Gnarly. Not a huge turn up, but heartwarming nonetheless. A huge word up to the artists that we showcased on the night: Pogo, Soda_Jerk and Peter Tscherkassky. Check out their material, it's mind blowing. Also word up to the people that showed up, helped (Maija, Jodi, Michelle, Mark, Su!) and my associates in crime for the event, Zabs and Padso. The 16mm was brilliant.

For those who don't know “Found footage, compilation, collage or ‘archival’ cinema is a broad filmmaking practice encompassing the use of file footage in documentary cinema, stock footage in fictional cinema, home-movie footage in some feminist cinema and the often radical recontextualisation of a vast array of images and sounds in examples of avant-garde cinema.” (Danks 2006)

Don't underestimate theory.
