An evening of experimental film and sound in Screen 3 of Aberdeen’s Belmont Picturehouse.
Orphans will showcase a new series of audio-visual short films by composer Ross Whyte. The films are constructed using only “found” materials such as daguerreotype photographs, public information announcements and so-called “orphan” films. The sounds are similarly sourced, and include skipping CDs, microphone distortion and mobile phone interference. All elements are recontextualised and presented as new intermedia.
Following the showcase, there will be a screening of new audio-visual works by local artists including Stephen Morrison, Claire M Singer, Pete Stollery and Bill Thompson.
