other film festival photos & more...
The delightful Kath O' Donnell has been kind enough to post the photos she took of OFF here: http://flickr.com/photos/aliak_com/tags/otherfilmfestival/ She says that there will also be video footage coming. Thanks Kath!!! Kath's website here: http://www.aliak.com
In other OFF related artist news....
Melbourne based animator, visual artist & expanded cinema performer Pia Borg has just won a 12 month scholarship to "study and develop her artistic capacities, skills and talents outside of Australia". Nice work if you can get it. You can see Pia's fantastic stop-motion animation film "Footnote" (with sound design by Joel Stern & music by Anthony Pateras), by downloading it from here: http://www.unisa.edu.au/samstag/Extras/media/piab_download.zip
Brisbane based animator, installationiser and international woman of mystery, Van Sowerwine has justed added a blog to her website : http://www.vansowerwine.com/ . She's been running it about 2 days as of this post, so there's not really a hell of a lot there yet.... For those of you who don't know, Van is one of those artists who is much better known outside Brisbane than within it, with her films having been screened at festivals such as Cannes & Sundance, and her installations also exhibited internationally. She was most recently seen in Brisbane performing as part of "Vanilla" with Camilla Hannan at Other Film Festival. You can play with interactive quicktime movies of some of Van's installations here: http://www.vansowerwine.com/installation/installation.html#sharper
