Armenian filmmaker's oeuvre to be featured at Signal + Noise Media Art Festival
June 18, 2011 - 11:43 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - VIVO in Vancouver presents the 11th annual Signal +
Noise Media Art Festival from June 23 to 27, 2011.
The 11th annual Signal + Noise Media Art Festival presents a collision
of revolutionary Armenian Kino Cinema, remixes of ex-Yugoslav and CBC
Television Broadcast ID Music, travelogues from an arctic sea voyage,
and science fictional rediscovery of diminishing islands.
According to artthreat.net, the 2011 festival aims to create a space
for the anxieties and tensions of this moment ` haltered between the
past and the future ` to fold in on themselves.
As a homage to analogue television broadcasting, Signal + Noise
presents two archives that reflect on the cultural influence of
regional production. Serbian born Artist Aleksandra DomanoviÄ?'s
anthology of television news-music from the geographic region of
ex-Yugoslavia will echo Anu Sahota's installation of CBC program
titles and station IDs from the 1950s-1980s. Station ID music from
both archives will be remixed and performed by Basketball, Brady
Cranfield, Julian Hou and Joshua Stevensen.
The poetic aura of archives are central to Armenian filmmaker Artavazd
Peleshian's oeuvre which addresses violence of the twentieth century:
its mass migrations, wars and dictatorships, through a lens on the
Armenian people. Signal + Noise presents a retrospective of this
little-known master of `distance montage'.
