- Punto y Raya Festival

Transcription

Punto y Raya Festival is the brainchild of the Barcelonan non-profit association
MAD [Moviment D’Alliberament Digital]. The proposal is as simple as universal: “No
representation, only dots and lines. Can you take it?”. This was the challenge launched
in 2007 through our first call for entries (distributed entirely via the Internet). To our
amazement, we received near 90 dot·line films from 20 countries. The participants
turned out to be animation students, renown animators, filmmakers, video-artists,
special FX designers, scientists, architects, composers, Vj’s, anthropologists, graphic
designers… We soon realized that the concept’s universality had aroused the interest of
various collectives; it was self-evident that the dot and the line affected the way
everybody interested in the creative process thinks of representation.
Under the motto “Back to basics”, Punto y Raya reflects upon what constitutes the
essence of form and movement, and explores these building blocks as ends in
themselves. From Beijing to Vancouver, from Reykjavik to Buenos Aires, thousands of
people were able to attend the festival’s reruns organized in each city thanks to our
associated groups and venues.
In barely two years of existence, we had already gained the recognition of the
experimental audiovisual community and the critic. An article published in Seattle
(WA·USA), has described our festival as “a broad spectrum of works of powerful
imagery, which will make us wonder about the essence of time and space beyond
language itself”. And in 2008, the Japanese press gave us the title of “most abstract
festival in the world”. Punto y Raya now constitutes a creative platform based in over
35 cities all over the world.
It has four editions under its belt:

M A N I F E S T
This festival explores the ultimate synthesis of the form·movement duality in
different spheres of art, science and thought. Due to the simplicity of its criteria, it
uses abstraction's prime matter to reveal the limitations and achievements of our
representation systems.
The dot·line is the ultimate grain of our universe and of the sense we make of it; it's
the primordial identification of all that exists; the essence of that which is matterless
but builds up matter, of what is imperceptible but allows us to recognize all
perceptible things.
But in the symbolic dimension the dot·line ceases to be an end in itself to become a
representation of human thought.
The dot·line dwells beyond religion, sociocultural environment, age, gender and
language. We invite people from all over the world to explore the creative possibilities
of these two basic elements, which make human expression and communication
possible.

JURY
E U G E N I B O N E T [Barcelona·Spain 1954]
Eugeni Bonet is active in the areas of film, video and digital media as a writer,
curator and artist. His filmography includes 133 (1979), Duchamp (retard en
vídeo) (1986-87), USession (2002) and a 35mm feature film, Tira tu reloj al
agua
(2004).
He’s currently working on his new feature film eGolem, among other works-inprogress.
As a curator, his activities include the touring program Calculated Cinema (1999
and 2001), the performance and screening series Coming Soon: Lettrist Cinema,
in between of discrepancy and uprising (2005), and the Val del Omar Overflow
(2010-2011) exhibition.
www.vimeo.com/boneteria
P A U L G L A B I C K I [U.S.A 1951]
His career and creative work have been characterized by highly interdisciplinary
activity centered in painting, drawing, and filmmaking, and extending into
photography, installation art, video art, sound, and electronic media. His
educational background includes a B.F.A. in Painting from Carnegie Mellon
University, and two M.F.A. degrees (Painting, Filmmaking) at Ohio University.
His exhibition career has included major film festivals, numerous individual and
group screenings, national / international museum and gallery exhibitions. He
has also taught and lectured as a visiting artist at institutions throughout the
United States, Europe, and Japan.
Much of his work has been involved with issues of time, motion (actual or
implied), temporal experience, perception, analytical observation, thresholds of
figurative and abstract representation, language systems and semiotics,
methods of analysis and interpretation, and transformation of found images or
actual sites.
The body of his experimental animation work for film synthesized drawing and
painting processes with sound, optical light play, cinematic form, and
simultaneous relay of multiple layers of information. These films were carefully
crafted by means of thousands of hand-drawn images on paper – each drawing
representing both a frame of film and a unique complete work on paper.
LAURA GINÉS & PERE GINARD_LABORATORIUM
[Girona · Palma de Mallorca, España 1975]
Illustrators, filmmakers and founders of Laboratorium, a micro-factory which
combines filmmaking and handmade publications with illustration and graphic
design commissions for the press and TV.
Their specialty is experimenting with perpetual movement and variations on the
Lumière brothers’ machine; including silent phantasmagorias with automatons
and melancholic representations of mourning, triumph, monsters, miracles and
mystical ecstasy, as well as their observations -sometimes unfinished- on things
that turn towards the sun and people with blond curly hair with a tendency
towards boldness.

B Ä R B E L N E U B A U E R [Klagenfurt·Austria 1950]
Bärbel studied stage design and film at the Hochschule für Angewandte Kunst in
Vienna. In 1987 she moved to Munich, Germany, where she currently lives and
works.
Since 1980, Bärbel has made over 40 animation and experimental films. She's
been composing music and film scores since 1991, and working in various
formats such as 35mm film, 70mm IMAX film, digital video for 3
monitors/screens
and
live
performance.
Her animations from the 90’s are mostly direct-on-film abstract works, that she
painted, stamped and scratched on 35mm film stock. Since 2000 she's been
working on digital "motion painting in image and sound", creating -among
others- "Flockenspiel I-IV" with different techniques.
Her films were screened at numerous international Animation/Film Festivals and
received international recognition. She teaches workshops and courses at
various Colleges, Universities and festivals in Europe and the US. Commercial
releases include "Absolut Neubauer" (as part of the Absolut Panushka Project)
and "Falter Spot 7", part of the Falter Spot Series, among others.

V L A D I S L A V S E V E R T S E V [Moscú, Rusia 1964]
Vlad Severtsev has come a long way from being an aspiring musician and a
radio DJ and music editor at the infamous Moscow based "Ptyuch" magazine in
the 90’s to promoting top international DJs and artists in Russia.
He developed the first ever “multimedia” festivals Megapolis Pulse and Nokialab
in Moscow, St. Petersburg and Yekaterinburg in early 2000’s.
In 2006 he co-founded Kefir Production to eventually become one of the leading
independent production houses for national TV networks in Russia.
Vlad is also the head of Force Media, a leading Russian audiovisual arts group
and creative community responsible for projects such as AudioVisual Academya

CONFERENCES
VÍCTOR PÉREZ-PORRO
November 3d, 2011 · Auditorio Sabatini
A journey through his pictorial work
Catalan fine artist Víctor Pérez-Porro introduces us to his creative process,
his relationship with abstraction and his pictorial work in various formats.
Moderated by Alba G. Corral
Since the beginning, Pérez-Porro was fascinated with the relation between
the artwork and its installation space, between representation and
abstraction; an interest that drove him to work in various formats such as
murals, archigraphy, sculpture and painting with mixed techniques.

JAVIER ROMAÑACH
“Chaos & order: Two representations of the same reality”
The dot and the line are two representation symbols of Chaos and Order. Dots
scattered randomly in space are ideal to represent Chaos visually. However,
the connection of dots through a straight line or stroke, is the beginning of
Order: the basic tool for human and mathematical constructions.
Both lines and dots can represent Order, but only the dots –or in some cases,
curve and disordered lines- can represent Chaos. This conference will start
form this premise to propose that Chaos and Order are nothing but two
representations of the same reality.
Javier Romañach has a PhD in Computer Engineering from the University of
Madrid. Thinker, writer, social activist and a fractals and visual mathematics
freak.
He's one of the founders of the Diverty and Independent Living Forum.
WORKSHOP FOR KIDS
"OPTICAL EXPERIMENTATION"
by Laboratoria
November, Saturday 5th & Sunday 6th, 2011 · Aula Taller
This workshop is open to children between 6 and 12 years old, and will start
with a brief visit to the abstract art collection at the Reina Sofía Museum,
making a first approach to great abstract classic’s that will boost the kids’
imagination for their own experimentations.
We propose the realization of a stop-motion animation, turning the Dot and
the Line into scenic elements. For this, we’ll use various translucent and
reflective surfaces and matte materials, light sources, filters and volumetric
objects.
We’ll videotape and photograph the obtained imagery and record sounds
produced by the children and the various objects featured in the animation.
Finally, we’ll edit the images and sounds with digital editing software.
Laboratoria is a collective of artists based in Madrid, who work in various
areas like education, design and the fine arts. Their methodology is
participative, focusing in the discovery of the world and the arts through the
dialog and experimentation.
