As a big fan of non-narrative/experimental filmmakers such as Stan Brakhage and Bill Morrison, I love what you folks are doing. I'm so glad to see you screening this work, not to mention bringing superb musicians like Juana Molina and Phil Elverum to Harrisburg. Keep up the great work! -David-
Wow, Nick Zedd, now his films are hard to get a hold of... only seen Abnormal: the Sinema of Nick Zedd... sort of reminded me of a low budget, less French George Bataille.
Dear Moviate, I really wanted to participate in the artsfest film fest. I couldn't put my film onto dvd in time for the deadline. This bums me out. Next Year!
