Summer Drone Noir 2013 for Wolfram von Eschenbach

Film expérimental | 16mm | noir et blanc | 2:0 | USA, Allemagne | 2013

?Summer Drone Noir 2013 for Wolfgang von Eschenbach? is a collage film. Originally, I made this film in 2005, but I didn?t like it, so I chopped it up into little pieces. After much processing I?ve made a film in which consists; the original footage 8mm, the optical sound track, the composite print, the 16mm negative blow up and the 16mm work print. I also confectioned some of the film in a way that you can see what you are hearing, the optical sound track and the perforation holes-at times for composition purposes. The footage I shot in 2004 at a Hermann Nitsch action, which was dedicated to the book by Wolfgang von Eschenbach, Parsival. The soundtrack is an original composition from Bernhard Schreiner made for the film called ElectricMagnetic Impluse Drone, or EMI Drone. The title for this film I got from the soundtrack and added Noir to it. This film is an original, there are no prints. It is a tribute to Owen Land, Stan Brakage, Joseph Cornel, Hermann Nitsch and Peter Kubelka.
