Folkliv the tv series at The Museum.

by Anders Weberg on 2011/09/20 in Exhibition, Latest news, Screening with No comments

On September 24th, the open air Museum Kulturen in Lund will arrange a day with a number of events on the theme of folklore and superstition.
They will screen the series Folkliv (Folklife, link to the series on iTunes U) in the auditorium during the day.

Folkliv is a TV-series by Anders Weberg and Robert Willim together with ethnologist Mia-Marie Hammarlin and The Folklife Archive in Lund.
It was sent on National Tv (Kunskapskanalen/Svt) in Sweden 2010/2011.
Here’s more info in Swedish:

Vad vet vi egentligen om livet i Sverige under bondesamhället? Följ med till gränslandet mellan fantasi och verklighet, när nu bild, ljud och berättelser ur Folklivsarkivet i Lund presenteras på ett nytt sätt.

Serien består av tio avsnitt på sex minuter vardera. Syftet är att gestalta svensk folkkultur och sägner från framförallt 1800- och det tidiga 1900-talet på ett nytt och fantasieggande sätt.

Programmen baseras på arkivmaterial från Folklivsarkivet i Lund. Bilder och musik vävs samman med berättelser om seder och bruk samt mustiga skrönor till en suggestiv audiovisuell blandning.

Projektet har drivits av etnologen och konstnären Robert Willim samt konstnären Anders Weberg, i samarbete med etnologen och speakern Mia-Marie Hammarlin. Arbetet har skett med stor hjälp av arkivarierna Charlotte Hagström och Göran Sjögård samt musikarkivarien Patrik Sandgren på Folklivsarkivet.

pripyat — the uncanny of modernity

Presented by Klaus W. Eisenlohr. The film program comprises films representing visions of the abandoned city of Pripyat by artists and documentary filmmakers, and imaginations of futures under the influence of “peaceful nuclear energy”.
Gair Dunlop confronts historical material about the glorious future that Dounreay Atomic Research Establishment would provide with his own camera footage, shot after the shut-down of the research power plant (Atom Town: Life After Technology). Now a ruin that still radiates, Dounreay does not attract nuclear tourists, unlike Chernobyl, which has become a popular destinations for photographers and other contemporary “explorers”. Julio Soto presents his imagination of cities after a climate or nuclear catastrophe in virtual images (Invisible Cities) just before he went to Pripyat himself in order to make a documentary about past and present inhabitants of the forbidden zone (Radiophobia). Vanessa Renwick in glorious pictures celebrates the good-bye to Trojan, a power-plant in the US that may be the equivalent to Brokdorf in Germany concerning the long-lasting local protests, but which was never going on-grid (Portrait #2: Trojan). And Thomas Bartels reflects in poetic pictures of 16mm film the mood of the year 1986, now almost a documentary of the mood in Germany under the influence of the clouds of Chernobyl (Zwischenlandung).

Chernobyl may have become the symbol for the crumbled future visions of modern prosperity made possible by peaceful nuclear energy, and for the apocalyptic imaginations of a modern catastrophe. However, it has also triggered an array of aspirations for adventures. Maybe less so the actual melted and broken reactor, shielded under a crumbling “sarcophagus” but the ghost town Pripyat, once a young modernist city, has become a collective iconographic symbol for the uncanny modernity that seems to attract people in many ways.

A retrospect screening with 11 of my films at Optica Festival in Madrid this week.

YEAR 2011
Author: Filippos Tsitsopoulos

Optica Festival, Madrid 2011.

I was honoured with the Special Optica Award at the Optica Festival earlier this year and my work will be screened at various places this autumn starting in Madrid this weekend.
The event is at La Casa Encendida, http://www.lacasaencendida.es
Full program: http://www.lacasaencendida.es/Ficheros/CMA/ficheros/pdf_festival_internacional_videoarte.PDF

I will not be in Madrid but when the festival comes to Gijón in October I will be there.

The films of mine that will be screened in the special retrospective is:

“Self”
“0 9 0 9 0 9 (Imaginary Places)”
“Expose yourself”
“Despair”
“Meaninglessness act: one”
“Untamed Reality”
“Dejected”
“Undisclosed Beauty”
“For Sore Eyes”
“Absent”
“Cape Town”

The films are all online at Vimeo as well but if you have the possibility to go and see them on a big screen please do so. The experience is so different..

Information in Spanish

“Cuando todo se termine…”: Un profundo análisis, desde la perspectiva de la cultura audiovisual contemporánea, de la irracional conducta autodestructiva del ser humano desarrollada desde el inicio de su existencia hasta la actualidad.

Una reflexión sobre el lado más oscuro y miserable de la historia del hombre. También, una visión particular de la desmedida explotación de los recursos que el planeta le ha brindado para su superviviencia a lo largo del tiempo.

Siguiendo el concepto descrito en el párrafo anterior, proponemos un formato novedoso en el que el orden de todas las piezas se estructura de una manera que en su conjunto conforman una “película” de marcado carácter experimental. A lo largo del “metraje”, los espectadores podrán disfrutar de una serie de experiencias sonoras, visuales, sensitivas…

El planteamiento propuesto por Optica rompe, en este caso, el ritmo y desarrollo tradicional de la cinematografía universal, logrando captar la atención del público a pesar de tratarse de un lenguaje audiovisual arriesgado y difícil de seguir en comparación con el cine convencional.

A lo largo de los 3 días de Festival puede suceder lo inesperado.
