For years the SF artist known as bran(…)pos has terrorized audiences worldwide with wildly delirious, butoh-inspired sound/music/noise/face performances. The recent addition of Max/MSP-modulated live video feeds to the infernal exotica cartoon brew takes the already harrowing violence of the artiste’s performative palette to new delirious dimension. In grunge/organic counterpoint, Wiggwaum–the local trio of Douglas Katelus, Loren Means and Randy Lee Sutherland–revive the “lightshow” genre by pairing hand-worked film and vintage psychedelia to their noise rock freakout jams. As if this were not enough, screening between acts will be Ben Russell’s Black and White Trypps Number Three, a trance/ritual transformation featuring the music of Lightning Bolt, and Terence Hannum’s The Badge of Punishment (featuring the sonic squalls of Prurient).

ANSWER organizer, Gloria La Riva has traveled to Venezuela several times over the last 4 years, and will introduce the film and take questions. Last month, Gloria was invited to speak at a forum in Caracas about the U.S. elections and the impact on the struggle Latin America.

The films show the successes and shortcomings of this unique process of revolutionary development. 2008, 85 min., English and Spanish subtitles.
