Film classification regulations in Australia require all films to
either be formally classified OR restricted to an audience of 18
years of age and over. Like most festivals, we do not have the resources
to classify films, and it is for this reason alone that we
are not able to admit any person under the age of 18 years to
the main MIAF screenings. |

(unclassified 18+)
Chronomops | Tina Frank
Wander down a certain street in Vienna (which
feels, for all the world, like Brunswick St, Melbourne circa 2000),
search out a door with a tiny sign that reads, ‘Six Pack Film’,
ring the bell and ….VOILA, enter a treasure trove of Austrian
experimental and abstract film. Abstract Nirvana! Shelf after shelf
of DVDs, VHS tapes, a climate controlled room of 16mm and 35mm films,
books, magazines, artwork. To be sure, it’s a specialised
taste, but if this kind of filmmaking intrigues, inspires, confounds
and excites you as much as us then you’ve just found a second
home. Six Pack Film is another distributor that MIAF has featured
pretty much every year. Often, their films have formed the backbone
of our Abstract Showcase and, always, their annual package of submissions
is one of our postal highlights. Often challenging and uncompromising,
Six Pack Film titles are at the forefront of the abstract and experimental
animation scene and this program reaches back deep into their archive
to make that point.

G.S.I.L
VI / almada
lia
Austria, 4'00, 2001
Though built around the music of ‘@c’,
this piece autonomously explores the visual context of the music. |
 |
Transistor
Michaela Schwentner
Austria, 6'00, 2000
A visual staccato adventure, set to short, choppy
segments of noise fragments, revealing the underlying interface
at which graphic and acoustic elements have always overlapped. |
 |
Spatial
Lines
Tinhoko
Austria, 4'00, 2001
Imagery drawn from three
continents constantly change colour and format and are deformed by
the 'planimetric' animation process employed by Tinhoko. |
 |
.airE
Maia Gusberti
Austria, 5'00, 2001
Using a journey along
electric powerlines, the filmmaker creates an essay on abstraction
by subverting simple, everyday perceptions. |
 |
Paths
Of G
Dietmar Offenhuber
Austria, 1'30, 2006
A fragment of Kubrick's
Paths Of Glory is rendered down to its most elemental componants of
dialogue and imagery. |
 |
Wieder
Holung
Nana Swiczinsky
Austria, 8'00, 1997
A visceral, meandering
nightmare that oscillates between apocalyptical fantasies and the
commonplace. Part documentary, part observational, part alternative
universe. |
 |
Chronomops
Tina Frank
Austria, 2'00, 2005
The doors open on to a
shimmering, colourful space that is simultaneously an excess of colour,
a frenzy of perception and a pop carousel. |
 |
Can
I Have 2 Minutes Of Your Time?
Brigitta Bodenauer
Austria, 2'00, 2005
A cubist reinterpretation
of the forward movement of time (two minutes to be precise) as depicted
by the progression of a clock's hands. |
 |
Tester
Michaela Schwentner
Austria, 5'00, 2004
Fractures in a soundscape
are accentuated on screen as various tableaus are scanned, framed
and re-sequenced through windows of varying dimensions. |
 |
Unterwerk
Dariusz Kowalski
Austria, 2'00, 2000
Superimposed horizontal
and vertical patterns in rich, dark colours pursue Paul Virilio's
‘nihilism of speed’. |
 |
_relifted
Tinhoko
Austria, 7'00, 2000
As in dreams (or the processes
of memory) various levels of thinking, knowing and feeling fuse; they
intensify and transform into mysterious symbols. |
 |
notdef./version
one
Maia Gusberti
Austria, 4'00, 2000
An intentional and focused
exercise in animating associations. Wild geometric growth from the
interior of the machine. |
 |
rewind
n:ja
Austria, 5'00, 2000
A visually symbiotic
relationship with Ruckenwind – a piece of experimental music
from unique Viennese electronica duo Shabotinski. |
