Other Cinema: X-PERI-MENTAL ANIMATION (LARRY JORDAN/JOHN DAVIS + COOK + COLBURN)

Saturday, March 11, 2017, 8:30 pm, $8

LARRY JORDAN/JOHN DAVIS + COOK + COLBURN
OC’s presiding patch-master John Davis brings his synth-musical mastery to bear on an old and a new animation by Larry Jordan, both in 16mm!! That patriarch of Bay Area cut-out animation is thankfully still single-framing away, and the world premiere of his Night Light is co-featured with his 1980 Folds of the Fortnight (co-directed with Jess!). The debut of Lauren Cook’s sublime Trans/Figure/Ground is similarly matched with her earlier 16mm Altitude Zero (on Amelia Earhart). ALSO in its West Coast debut is Martha Colburn’s Pug Adventures, an animated journey through the human reproductive system! PLUS Karen Ver Trinidad’s (in person) Kinetic Identity, Salise HughesBoating Song, and even more pixilations from Deborah Kelly, Kelly Gallagher, and Mary Ellen Bute (her rare ’37 Parabola). Free toast, jam. and nutella!*$8
