Beyond Noh

"Beyond Noh" rhythmically animates 3,475 individual masks from all over the world, beginning with the distinctive masks of the Japanese Noh theater and continuing on a cultural journey through ritual, utility, deviance, and politics.

Street Musique

Animator Ryan Larkin does a visual improvisation to music performed by a popular group presented as sidewalk entertainers. His take-off point is the music, but his own beat is more boisterous than that of the musicians. The illustrations range from convoluted abstractions to caricatures of familiar rituals. Without words.

Flow

Film poem created with the wild flowers that grow along the shore of the Laira estuary, the tidal mouth of the River Plym, on the southwest coast of Britain. The petals and leaves stream past as the haunting soundscape ebbs and flows.

Extrapolate

A line is being extrapolated through a grid. When the line surpasses the boundaries of the grid, the process spreads to and reflects on its surroundings. Beyond each boundary the extrapolation of movement is causing deformation in a systematic but speculative way.

The Comic that Frenches your Mind

A 5 minute, 2D, straight-ahead animated film by Bruce Bickford.

Dark Mixer

Iwasaki’s ink oscillates like an evil lava lamp that might actually be alive and its progression into more and more disturbing images create an impressive sense of dread in a film that is basically just some pencil drawings on a blank background. (Film School Rejects)

Strange Fish

Blind evolution. Seemingly arbitrary stages of the evolution in black-and-white drawings on rough paper.

Anemone Temple

Deep-sea organisms living in such a specific environment have developed unusual forms and properties. This is an interpretation of the underwater world and an invitation to relax.

Square

Leaders

Entr'Acte

A series of vaudeville acts inserted in images of reality, meant to demonstrate the ephemeral nature of all things.

Concatenation

A destructive sequence with infinite consequences.

Liza

Liza is an abstract film that takes its name from a composition by George Gershwin.

There Is Something Behind the Sound
