SUMMARY:The mechanical Afterlife
DESCRIPTION:\n“I saw the pale student of unhallowed arts kneeling be
 side the thing he had put together. I  saw the hideous phantasm of a 
 man stretched out, and then, on the working of some powerful engine, s
 how signs            of life, and stir with an uneasy, half vi
 tal motion. Frightful must it be; for supremely frightful would be the
  effect of any human endeavour to mock the stupendous mechanism of the
  Creator of the world”.\n-- Mary Shelley, Frankenstein\nForbidden sc
 ience, archaeology and animation as re-animation.\nThe speed of light 
 has sent the souls of the first projected images to the furthest limit
 s of the solar system, but its earthly remains lay dormant, ripe for r
 e-discovery. Recalling Brakhage’s attempt to re-animate insects thro
 ugh projection (Mothlight, 1964), this live performance will harness e
 lectro-mechanics and digital micro-cinematography to unearth the magic
  transformations buried alive within the layers of decayed and dying f
 ilm prints.\nLike forensic lab tests, The Mechanical Afterlife will 
 probe the molecular life-forces of selected film frames and finally �
 �re-animate” them from their stasis in a 35mm projector.\n\nFor more
