Interested with a short attention span and excited to put some moving pictures together, my goals are "hahaha" and "oh shit, wow". Quiet reflection has its place. I just want to blow shit up. Experimental film is too limitless to take it too easy. Might as well go to extremes, huh?
Leaders in experimental film, at least from what I have read, tend to define themselves in terms of the norm of narrative. They are what they are not. But I reject the boundary that I see them making, the dichotomy between Hollywood narrative and basement experimentation. The realm outside my films will include whininess, dullness, tragedy, sentimentality, grandiosity, and moths. I am interested shamanic intuition, rational detachment, and an infinitely exponential cosmic sense of humor.
This manifesto is weak. I’ll draft it again once my hands are a little dirtier and these abstract intentions come to life at least a little. Sometimes I feel a little unreal when I realize that all that I’ve ever dreamed of is constantly blowing away, and that in the scheme of things one is ever on the verge of disappearing. I plan on sculpting my imagination with the filmic medium in this class, and beyond, a slight attempt at making myself real or permanent, etc. and so forth, blah, blah, blah, with liberty and justice for all. Amen.
