10 Minutes of Collective Activity & Pierre Vallières
12.00 - 12.45

10 Minutes of Collective Activity: Ask 22 people to watch an infamous 10-minute speech by Connecticut Senator Abraham Ribicoff from the 1968 Democratic National Convention. Video their reaction, see what happens. Present that to another audience (you) and ask you to watch the process of watching.

Pierre Vallières: Catch as much as can be caught in single shots to explore the fleetingness of viewership in real time.

Film Programme 1: Inventory
13.00 - 13.35

Apply the tools of data-management to the global news media.

Noir & Perfect Film
13.50 - 14.25

Noir: A (imageless) film of nothing but a sound recording and its transcription.

Perfect Film: Focus on other people’s (everyday, creative) labour, not your own. Find something (in this case news interviews about Malcolm X’s assasination) and add nothing to it, except our attention.

Film Programme 2: Repetitive Actions
15.00 - 15.40

Minimal investigations of the tension between the body, diaristic/ everyday movement and documentation.

Film Programme 3: Collective Actions
16.00 - 16.35

Individual experience separated by physical boundaries (of space, time or ability) suggested as communities of collective experience by (perhaps voyeuristic) artists.

Screening Room & Teatro Amazonas
16.50 - 17.45

Screening Room: A simple first person, Dundee-specific tracking shot that approaches the cinema/ screen/ space the film will eventually be shown in.

Teatro Amazonas: Investigate first and second order viewership. You are hereby invited to watch and listen people listening to other people (in the same space but out of sight), and to think about that.
