Guest Curator : three videos selected and commented by Amiina :

1 – Dickson Experimental Sound Film (1894)

“This is the first film with live sound that is known of. Nice to think back to the roots now and then to remember how easy things have become with modern technology. “

2 – Lumière Brothers – The Serpentine Dance (c.1899)

“A classic, always beautiful ”

3 – Gamelan Gong Kebyar

“This video from Bali is just stunning. Makes you want to throw everything you are working on away and get on a plane to Bali to learn some real stuff…. ”
