Mixing old tech with new, these lyrical abstractions explore red-gold color fields created with photograms (direct exposure of film without cameras), then animated through 16mm rephotography and digital manipulation. Soothing and melancholy, Wills works in the aleatory-painterly tradition of Brakhage, but with sound: the tracks consist of classical music, spoken word, and altered bits of everyday noises. Floral images link her work to Victorian embroidery and other womanly parlor arts. (Ed Halte)

The Lost Elephants of Timbuktu

One-hundred strong, the herd slowly makes its way through the shifting sands, following the promise of ephemeral desert rains. This is the remarkable, precarious, and untold story of a lost herd of elephants that live near the fabled city of Timbuktu. How the elephants survive in this seemingly barren, desolate landscape is a mystery. It is one however that Anne Orlando, a biologist from the University of California, hopes to unravel. For the first time she will track the elephants to uncharted lands and reveal the relationship they have with Tuareg nomads - a relationship which can be both respectful, and bloody. The lost elephants of Timbuktu are completely isolated from other African elephants - they were cut off from each other as the Sahara turned to desert centuries ago. They have survived in this unlikely setting by having a mental map of scattered temporary lakes and marshes.

". . . Nevertheless, Fogel pushes these pictures of escalators and suitcase-toting travelers deeply into lyrical, Rorschach-symmetrical abstraction. In the course of moving from video to film, the images become flattened into painterly icons and patterns; their contrast has been increased, and the colors shifted into gemlike purples, greens and blues. Edited with a primal shape-based rhythm, Airport Architecture was created for a live musical accompaniment by Greta Cohn and James Hoff." —Ed Halter

"Super 8 images of a cellophane-covered male body floating in water are blown up into two separate movies—one video, the other 16mm—which screen simultaneously as superimpositions upon one another, further altered through colored gels placed in front of the projectors. The overlapped projections create an uncanny 3D effect, while the claustrophobic shots of the man's open mouth attempting to breath through clinging cellophane and roiling water, and the film's respiratory soundtrack, unveils a thanatos within its eros." —Ed Halter

"999" is a film that revolves around two main axes: a historic event (the end of Portuguese colonial rule in Macau) and a private, biographical relationship with the place (or your idea). The first required clarification and the second, resolution. Despite his best efforts, “999”, in the end, can't accomplish either one.

Since the beginning of time, man has emphasized his power by building monuments. None of the world's structures inspires as much admiration as the pyramids. Pyramids - in the deserts of Egypt and the Middle East, in the jungles of Mexico and in the American prairies - were built of stone as tombs of rulers or places of sacrificial rituals. They are silent witnesses of bygone times and extinct civilizations of antiquity. The secret of the construction of the Egyptian pyramids in Giza, the Aztec Pyramid of the Sun in Mexico, the Mayan pyramids as a reminder of bloody rituals, the ziggurats in Babylonia - all this in the British documentary PYRAMIDS from the series MYSTERIES OF THE ANCIENT AGE.
