aemi presents a very special international programme of experimental ‘trance films’.

The films selected here by pass comprehension, these are works that are experienced first and underst ood later (if at all). In his notes on Austrian filmmaker Jung an Tagen’s A Flock of Rotations Christian Höller describes how ‘there is no boundary here, no outside, no escape’ and this applies across a selection of films that take us from an explicitly digital realm to the far more ear thly realm of the Atacama Desert in Daïchi Saïto’s EARTHEARTHEART H (screening here in a beautiful 35mm print). As Alejandro Bachmann n otes in relation to Happy Doom ‘the boundaries between insid e and outside, me and the world, the virtual and the material, all become permeable, ambiguous, irrelevant’. A perfect descriptor for a programme th at skirts the outer realm of psychedelia and cinema.

The screening i ncludes two works screening from 35mm prints, both courtesy of Light Cone.

A Flock of Rotations – Jung an Tagen

Continuously falli ng pitches – descending into infinity.

Fuddy Duddy – Siegfried A. Fruhauf

In Siegfried A. Fruhauf´s F uddy Duddy, something resembling a big bang is seen, with an energy r esulting from the struggle between order and chaos. Everything we see take s place within a linear force field – whatever happens in the black and wh ite images that arise from invisible sources of artistic creativity, whate ver reveals its presence the instant it disappears. The lines themselves b egin to flicker. It is as if they emerge from lidless eyes – were it only possible – yet they do not give way. The crucial grid underlying classical aesthetics of harmony and measurement begins to glow, but it does not go up in flames- Bert Rebhandl

Happy Doom – Billy Rois z

HAPPY DOOM is an audiovisual poem, an ode to color intoxi cation and vertigo. The screen a vibrating membrane that simultaneously sp its and swallows colors and noisy beats – a hypnotic deformed circumpolar psychedelic short trip.

Ville Maria – Alexandre Lar ose

This film is inspired from a dream during which I fall from the top of a high-rise building facing the sky- Alexandre Larose

< p>EARTHEARTHEARTH – Daïchi Saïto

Dawn breaks where land is flesh
And bones’ echoes;
You’ve lived through extinctions –< br>Stars, skies, sand and seas;
Future is catching us up at last,
An d all the dead are ahead of us.

A major film from a singular artist,  earthearthearth is a pulsing, painterly tour de force. – Michael Sicinski
