The main screening was the [UK] première of Between the Bullet and the Hole, but first, some of her earlier films were shown:
-
Onomatopoeic Alphabet (2010) 6 mins
-
Sound Seam (2010) 15 mins
-
Oramics: Atlantis Anew (2011) 7 mins
-
Doorway for Natalie Kalmus (2013) 9 mins
-
In and Out of Synch (2012) 20 mins
In addition to screening using the latest digital projection technology, one was projected using 16mm film. There is something about the sound of a film projector rattling away at the back of the auditorium, and the more analogue feel to the projection, that lends a certain quality to it.
After the screening, time for Aura Satz to speak about her films, and for a discussion with guests Morgan Quaintance (a London-based writer, musician, broadcaster and curator) and David Alan Grier (writer, author and speaker on issues of technology, society and organizations).
