> Wednesday 14 January 2004, 7pm for 7.30pm start
> LUX SALON: DIRK DE BRUYN: ANCIENT DAMAGE
> Dirk de Bruyn will present a programme of 16mm from 1976 to 2004, including
> both his first and latest films. Born in the Netherlands, he has been active
> as an artist, writer and organiser for over 30 years, primarily in Australia
> where he has been a central figure in the Melbourne film scene. De Bruyn uses
> a variety of techniques including direct animation, flicker, time lapse and
> hand-processing to create dynamic personal cinema. This programme features a
> film from each decade and includes the world premiere of Analog Stress (2004,
> 12m). The visual element is constructed from reworked industrial and discarded
> personal footage, while the sound combines the original optical tracks with
> scratches, pen marks and Letraset. Also screening: Running (1976, 30m),
> Boerdery (1985, 11m) and Rote Movie (1994,12m).
> Admission to the LUX SALON is FREE but places are limited so booking is
> essential. To book a place email <[log in to unmask]>. If you reserve a space but
