Help with curating...
Hey Everyone, I'm helping to curate a series of screenings in Los Angeles this fall, and was wondering if anyone here could help. I'm looking for videos for the following themes:
Text: for a show highlighting the pleasures of reading, we seek videos or graphics pieces based primarily on text, or that incorporate text in interesting ways.
Horror: projects rife with blood, guts and/or psychological mayhem are sought for a program of experimental and short work that grapples with horror, disgust and repulsion.
Remix: we believe that creativity always builds on the past and culture should not always be for sale to the highest bidder. Show us what happens when you rip, mix, mash and burn your way through the ideas, images and sounds of media culture.
If anyone can think of examples of these themes, it'd be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
TEXT:

text:
- Phoenix "Funky Squaredance" Roman Coppola Real Media, yuck / website
horror: 3. Circlesquare "7 Minutes" Jaron Albertin youtube
Remix: Coldcut vs. TV Sheriff "World of Evil" dir: TV Sheriff youtube
that was fun!
No links I'm afraid but what about the following
Text:
Prince "Sign of the Times" is pretty much the daddy.
Horror:
Check out Cradle of Filth - I believe they have their own website and they've done some proper horror core stuff with Alex Chandon
Also Dominic Hailstone's Eel film is pretty damn dark
Remix:
You need to speak to James Hyman - he made hundreds of remix videos for major labels in the 90s when it looked like dance music might just save the world
When it comes to text this one is a hard one to miss.
Alex Gopher - The Child by Antoine Bardou-Jacquet : www.partizan.com
I'm surprised that the hass hasn't got a link for Dominic Hailstone, seeing as he reps him.
For Horror...
Daft Punk with "Prime Time Of Your Life" videos.antville.org
