SUMMARY:Make Pictures Hosted by GIPHY Arts and bitforms gallery nyc
DESCRIPTION:Facebook invite: https://www.facebook.com/events/225305618027375/ \nMake Pictures: Wednesday March 21 – Sunday March 25\nGallery Hours: Wednesday – Saturday\, 11 AM – 6 PM & Sunday 12 – 6 PM\nbitforms gallery\, 131 Allen St.\, New York\, NY 10002 \nOpening Reception: Wednesday March 21\, 6 – 8 PM\nCasey Reas and Jeffrey Alan Scudder in Conversation: Saturday March 24\, 2:30 PM \nbitforms gallery is pleased to present Make Pictures\, featuring four web-based drawing and animation tools commissioned by GIPHY Arts and curated by artist Jeffrey Alan Scudder. Works on view and available to use include Sketch Machine by Casey Reas\, Extinctr by Harm van den Dorpel\, Eyemall by Withering Systems\, and Boopy by Andrew Benson. Pictures created by gallery visitors using the tools will be displayed in the gallery for the duration of the show. \nSketch Machine by Casey Reas is an open source software for creating freehand animations in real time or frame by frame. The user can draw with different colored points\, lines\, and planes and modify qualities of the animation such as jitter\, speed\, and playback. Animations can be exported as GIFs and circulated online. Sketch Machine is created within the tradition of direct animation works by Len Lye and Stan Brakhage and exploratory drawing software like Kid Pix and TURUX.  \nExtinctr is a pixel sorting algorithm and web tool by Harm van den Dorpel that accepts any image as input\, and outputs an animated vertical decomposition of that image into a pixelated mound. The user can control the speed of the dismantling procedure (scatter) and record any duration of the process to export as a GIF. \nThe Eyemall is a toy by Withering Systems for creating an exquisite corpse from a curated\, tagged selection of human body-part GIFs in GIPHY’s database. Hands\, eyes\, noses\, sweaters\, shorts\, knees\, lips\, and other body parts come together to form an interactive marionette-like figure; a single body made from disparate GIF parts.  \nBoopy is a drawing tool by Andrew Benson developed in response to the question “What would it be like if\, as you are drawing\, the canvas was looping?” Boopy allows the user to build complex\, layered\, repeating patterns from different textured brushes. It also includes a webcam feature that allows a user to reveal their image by erasing a layer with animated strokes. \n— \nCasey REAS writes software to explore emergent systems. His work brings together conceptualism\, systems theory\, experimental film and animation\, and drawing. While software is at the core of his practice\, his work spans installation\, works on paper\, and live performance. Reas has been featured in exhibitions at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art\, San Francisco\, SF; Art Institute of Chicago\, Chicago\, IL; Museum of Contemporary Art\, Los Angeles\, CA; Centre Georges Pompidou\, Paris\, France; Victoria and Albert Museum\, London\, England; MIT Museum\, Cambridge\, MA; Institute of Contemporary Art\, Boston\, MA; Eyebeam\, New York\, NY; Ars Electronica\, Linz\, Austria; Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie Karlsruhe\, Karlsruhe\, Germany\, and others. Reas is the co-creator\, with Ben Fry\, of Processing\, an open source programming language and environment. The project was initiated in 2001. \nHarm van den Dorpel lives and works in Berlin. Selected (group) exhibitions include the New Museum in New York\, MoMa PS1 in New York\, Ullens Center for Contemporary Art in Beijing\, Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw\, Museum Kurhaus Kleve\, ZKM Karlsruhe\, and the Netherlands Media Art Institute in Amsterdam. In 2015\, Van den Dorpel started Left Gallery\, an online gallery that commissions\, produces\, and sells downloadable files. \nWithering Systems is a small software label and umbrella for the collaborative projects of Katie Rose Pipkin and Loren Schmidt\, based in Pittsburgh\, Pennsylvania. They aim to bring quiet and unusual digital experiences to the public in unlikely places\, such as on social media\, in printed material\, or on the street. Past work includes inflorescence.city\, the moth generator\, luminous corridor\, as well as many other small games\, print projects\, and plant-growth simulations. \nAndrew Benson lives in Los Angeles\, formerly San Francisco\, and works primarily in time-based (often realtime) digital media. His practice incorporates 3D animation\, experimental and process-driven video\, software development\, interactive technologies\, web programming. He comes from a painting and music background and started working with experimental graphics and video as an outgrowth of performing at noise shows.  \nJeffrey Alan Scudder\, born in 1989\, lives and works in Berkeley\, CA where he spends his time programming and making pictures. Since 2017 he has presented 18 Radical Digital Painting lectures often in collaboration with other artists\, at various venues including ZKM Karlsruhe\, RISD\, Harvard\, Yale\, Temple University\, Rutgers\, and UMASS. He has taught at UCLA and Parsons School for Design and worked at the design studio Linked by Air. Scudder received an MFA in sculpture from Yale University School of Art in 2013. \nGIPHY Arts is a subsidiary of GIPHY\, the GIF search engine. GIPHY Arts expands the prominence of the GIF as an artistic medium and format by directly engaging and commissioning artists\, creating new distribution possibilities\, and pioneering new technology.

SUMMARY:Womanimation! MassArt Encore Edition
DESCRIPTION:Facebook invite: https://www.facebook.com/events/2119663338266987/ \nWhat is Womanimation?

Nine countries are represented\, in styles from traditional 2-D to stop-motion to computer animation\, with themes from comic documentary to bittersweet personal drama to forays into the surreal. The festival features something for every taste. \nA slideshow introducing the filmmakers will precede the program\, and audience members will be given ballots to select their favorite films of the program. DJ Madame B will weave soundscapes created by women across the globe before and after the screening.

SUMMARY:Musical Movies @ MoMA
DESCRIPTION:  \nLog Jam KJFG No. 5. 2007. Hungary. Directed by Alexei Alexeev. 2 min. \nThree “professional” musicians—a bear\, a rabbit\, and a wolf—are practicing their art in the forest\, but suddenly a hunter turns up on the scene . . . \nKuumba. 1978. USA. Directed by Bob Bloomberg and Jane Aaron. 8 min. \nUsing cutouts created by children\, which were animated by adults\, this is an origins tale from the island of Trinidad.

Directed by Virginia Wilkos. 9 min. \nBased on the book by Robert Kraus\, this film features a young hippopotamus who happens to be very musically inclined. Max can play any instrument and loves to practice. He likes to practice so much that his blowing\, plinking\, and banging annoys his father (and the neighbors too!). See what happens when Max decides to give up practicing. \nThe Day I Beat the Sky. 2016. France. Directed by Hughes Valin. 3 min. \nWhile he is fascinated by every resonating thing\, a boy must face his greatest fear: a storm. He’s then going to use his gift for rhythms and sounds to beat his phobia. \nBegone Dull Care. 1949. Canada. Directed by Evelyn Lambart and Norman McLaren. 8 min. \nThis masterpiece of hand drawn animation features colors\, shapes\, and patterns painted directly onto clear 35mm film stock and set to the jazz music of the Oscar Peterson Trio. \nEnjoy new and classic family-friendly short films\, engaging discussions\, and suggestions for follow-up activities in the Museum’s galleries. This program is for individual families of up to two adults and up to three kids. \n\nView more Family Programs. \nTickets: Free tickets are distributed on a first-come\, first-served basis starting at 10:00 a.m. on the day of the program at the information desk in the Education and Research Building\, at 4 West 54 Street. \nContact: (212) 708-9805 or familyprograms@moma.org \nAccessibility: Sound amplification devices are available for all programs.

SUMMARY:How To Read Nancy : The Elements of Comics in Three Easy Panels by Paul Karasik and Mark Newgarden @ SOI
DESCRIPTION:  \n*This event is not hosted by ASIFA East* \n\n\n\n\n\nPaul Karasik and Mark Newgarden will introduce their new work\, a unique meditation on the elements of comics as seen through the molecular deconstruction of the August 8\, 1959 daily episode of Ernie Bushmiller’s Nancy. Columbia University comics librarian Karen Green\, will chat with Mark and Paul about the genesis of this decade-long project and the author’s quest to isolate the blood\, sweat and tears that go into the making of a single comic strip. \nHow To Read Nancy is part encyclopedia\, part history\, part biography\, part treatise\, part humor theory\, and part how-to-be-a-cartoonist-in-43-easy-lessons-sorry-folks-no-refunds! \nA book singing and reception will follow the presentation. \nTickets\n$15 Non-Members | $10 Members | $7 Seniors/students (Undergrad with valid I.D.) \n“As one of the members of the first graduating class of How to Read Nancy\, I can insure that anyone who wants to understand the mechanics of comics should snap up this thorough (and thoroughly entertaining) extended autopsy of Bushmiller’s genius. I learned more about reading pictures from it than I did from seven years of art school.” – Chris Ware \n“A stirring examination of the perfect comic strip and a touching love letter to its creator.” -Dan Clowes  \n“Anyone who can come away from this book not understanding the complex thought that inhabits handcrafted objects\, minimal abstraction\, formalism\, the hidden value of orchestration or Nancy should just give up on art as inscrutable and imponderable.” -Gary Panter \n“How to Read Nancy details the agony involved in making comic strips. It is also a very funny book.” -Ben Katchor \n“Professors Karasik and Newgarden want to take you to school. They throw down an inky gauntlet\, and then back it up with almost absurd levels of elucidation. Filled with valuable lessons\, this book is a tribute to the art of the simple\, as exemplified by a master cartoonist.” -David Mazzucchelli \n“A crazy idea for a book.” -R. Crumb \nPaul Karasik\nPaul Karasik is the co-author (with David Mazzucchelli) of the graphic novel City of Glass\, adapted from the book by Paul Auster and chosen by The Comics Journal as one of the “100 Best Comics of the 20th Century”. His cartoons appear in the New Yorker. Paul teaches at the Rhode Island School of Design. \nMark Newgarden\nMark Newgarden is a cartoonist and author of the book We All Die Alone\, the co-creator of “Garbage Pail Kids”\, and the co-author (with Megan Montague Cash) of the award-winning Bow-Wow series of children’s books. Mark teaches at Pratt Institute\, Parsons School of Design at The New School\, and The School of Visual Arts. \nErnie Bushmiller\nErnie Bushmiller\, the creator of Nancy\, began working as a copy boy at The New York World at the age of 14. His career spanned the better part of the  20th century\, paralleling the rise and fall of the American newspaper comic strip. At its height\, Nancy was published daily in more than 900 newspapers worldwide. Bushmiller died in 1982. \nKaren Green\nKaren Green is Columbia University’s first Curator for Comics and Cartoons. She has served as a judge for the Eisner Awards\, been a Pulitzer Prize juror\, and is a member of the Society of Illustrators’ board of directors\, while also speaking at universities and comics events across the country and around the world.  She teaches a summer course at Columbia on “Comics as Literature\,” which features the original “How to Read Nancy” essay.

SUMMARY:Window Horses
DESCRIPTION:“An entertaining\, educational\, and poignant tale about identity and imagination that is filled with stories and poetry.” – Alissa Simon\, Variety \n \n“This is not just a visual treat\, it’s a rewarding and unexpectedly engrossing piece of female-led storytelling.” – Wendy Ide\, Screen International \n \n \n\n“We are pleased to announce the animated feature WINDOW HORSES  is being released in NY on November 10.   \n \n\nThe film is about Chinese/Iranian girl\, Rose Ming (voice by Sandra Oh) who is disconnected from her Iranian side of her family but becomes reconnected when travels there to perform at a poetry festival in Shiraz\, Iran.\n \nWINDOW HORSES is voiced by Golden Globe winner Sandra Oh (Grey’s Anatomy\, SIDEWAYS)\, Oscar nominated actress Shohreh Aghdashloo (HOUSE OF SAND AND FOG\, 24) and Oscar and Golden Globe nominated actress Ellen Page (JUNO\, INCEPTION) and is directed by award-winning filmmaker Ann Marie Fleming (THE FRENCH GUY) and\n\n\n \nWINDOW HORSES has received much praise for it’s powerful message of love—love of family\, poetry\, history and culture.\n\n\n \nRosie Ming\, a young Canadian poet\, is invited to perform at a poetry festival in Shiraz\, Iran\, but she’d rather go to Paris. She lives at home with her over-protective Chinese grandparents and has never been anywhere by herself. Once in Iran\, she finds herself in the company of poets and Persians who tell her stories that force her to confront her past: the Iranian father she assumed abandoned her and the nature of poetry itself. The film is about building bridges between cultural and generational divides. It’s about being curious. Staying open. And finding your own voice through the magic of poetry. \nThe film’s voice actors include Sandra Oh (Rosie)\, Ellen Page (Kelly\, Rosie’s best friend)\, Don McKellar (a young poet named Dietmar)\, Shohreh Aghdashloo (Mehrnaz\, a professor at the University of Tehran) and Nancy Kwan (Gloria\, Rosie’s overprotective grandmother). More than a dozen animators\, including Kevin Langdale\, Janet Perlman\, Bahram Javaheri and Jody Kramer\, worked on the film with Fleming. \n  \n\n \nOFFICIAL SELECTION\nTORONTO INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 2016\n \nBEST BRITISH COLUMBIA FILM and BEST CANADIAN FILM\nVANCOUVER INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL 2016\n \nJURY PRIZE-FEATURE FILM\nBUCHEON INTERNATIONAL ANIMATION FESTIVAL 2016\n \nAUDIENCE AWARD\nANIMASYROS-INTERNATIONAL ANIMATION FESTIVAL AND FORUM 2016\n \nCENTENNIAL BEST CANADIAN FILM AWARD\nREEL ASIAN 2016\n“
