albie thoms was a leading light of the australian version of 60s/70s counter-culture movement which had a strong independent and experimental film-making presence.

An inTeRview wiTh AlBie Thomsthis precious interview was recorded just three weeks before he passed away in november 2012. it covers a wide range of topics: albie thoms’ early theatre experiments with absurd plays, becoming a film maker, the UBU experimental film group’s work, government politics, rebellion, and the emergence of sydney’s counterculture. it is a touching account from a once rebellious artist, illustrated with original photos, film clips, excerpts of performances and, most importantly, with selected clips from albie’s experimental films.

paul Winkler (born 22 June 1939) is a German-born australian filmmaker who lives and works in sydney. He was associated with Corinne and arthur Cantrill, albie thoms and david perry in pioneering local experimental film production in the 1960s.Winkler characterises his films as “a synthesis of intellect and emotion, filtered through the plastic material of film”. “i try to let ‘imagines’ flow freely to the surface”. the ideas which he terms ‘imagines’ may reflect australian icons like Bondi Beach, ayers rock/Uluru and the sydney Harbour Bridge, or textures, as in Bark/rind, Green Canopy, and the bush.

exPeRimenTsprojected on two screens, with two separate soundtracks, the always exceptional, and occasionally brilliant, photographic images are enhanced by de Bruyn’s rigorous control over a wide variety of experimental techniques. Without overindulging in any of them, de Bruyn uses animation, optical illusions, time lapse, solarization, hand tinting, flash frames, refilming and flicker effects, accompanied by a dense atmosphere of word puns, dialogue, primal screams, music and even recycled and letraseted soundtracks. disc 1: experiments on two screen + performancedisc 2: resource pack: screen 1 + 2plus article by steven mcintyre pdf.Code: ddB-experiments Uni a$250 / school a$200

since the 1960s, takahiko iimura’s explorations of the moving image have probed the relationship between media, time and language and have strived to redefine the exhibition of cinema as a mode of performance. He has worked closely with the giants of experimental film such as members of the Hi-red Centre and fluxus, yoko Ono, Jonas mekas, John Cage, stan Brakhage and stan vanderbeek. His uncompromising work, here presented on dvd, bridges boundaries between film and performance art.
