About the event

The University of Edinburgh's Expanding Cinema research group, in collaboration with Goethe Institute, presents a programme of eight short-form works made by members of collective, artist-run filmlab, LaborBerlin. Here, artisanal, photochemical practices are actively explored and engaged by members, as well as subverted, remixed and hacked with modern technology in order to explore and expand the boundaries of the medium.

The programme brings together work crafted on small-gauge film, across 8mm, 16mm and 35mm, and a number of the works will be projected from 16mm prints. We are thrilled to be welcoming Jules Leaño and Sophie Watzlawick from LaborBerlin, to speak about their work at the collective, and the creative possibilities of working with analogue film in a time of digital prevalence.

Please note that this screening event contains content that may be unsuitable for people with photosensitive epilepsy.

With many thanks to Goethe Institute for their generous support of this event.
