his essay aims to provide an overview of the festivals dedicated to the analog films and performance practices of filmmakers and artist-run laboratories that posit themselves as media counter-culture and analog ‘resistance’. Such events offer the films’ material quality as a contrast to the planned obsolescence common in the IT industry. Currently, many filmmakers, artists and collectives create spaces, cooperatives, and independent labs to construct a media archaeology approach that is based on the experimental, hands-on re-enactment of traditional and obsolete practices. These film performance events thus exhibit the counter-cultural research performatively pursued by filmmakers, artists and collectives in an attempt to attract a perceptive audience capable of fully understanding this complex fruitive experience.

Abstract

his essay aims to provide an overview of the festivals dedicated to the analog films and performance practices of filmmakers and artist-run laboratories that posit themselves as media counter-culture and analog ‘resistance’. Such events offer the films’ material quality as a contrast to the planned obsolescence common in the IT industry. Currently, many filmmakers, artists and collectives create spaces, cooperatives, and independent labs to construct a media archaeology approach that is based on the experimental, hands-on re-enactment of traditional and obsolete practices. These film performance events thus exhibit the counter-cultural research performatively pursued by filmmakers, artists and collectives in an attempt to attract a perceptive audience capable of fully understanding this complex fruitive experience.
