Dub Echoes – trailer from Bruno Natal on Vimeo.
“Dub Echoes” tells the story of how the jamaican dub influenced the birth of much of what we hear today, from electronic music to hip hop. A documentary by Bruno Natal.
Yesterday I watched Hellstrom Chronicle (1971), and literally I just watched because as darkness filled the theatre I realized it was dubbed in finnish with swedish subtitles. Maybe now I should read the movie subtitles to create an asynchronous movie experience. However, not everything was lost, the movie has very good insects scenes. I’ll try to watch it again at some point. Here the first minutes of the film (in english):
“The Subconscious Art of Graffiti Removal” is a documentary about the art that comes from the act of removal of a graffiti where the person is not aware of the art he is creating. The documentary also focus the different styles that result of the different removal methods, some description taken from the official page,
“Graffiti removal: the act of removing tags and graffiti by painting over them.
Subconscious art: a product of artistic merit that was created without conscious artistic intentions.
It is no coincidence that funding for “anti-graffiti” campaigns often outweighs funding for the arts. Graffiti removal has subverted the common obstacles blocking creative expression and become one of the more intriguing and important art movements of our time. Emerging from the human psyche and showing characteristics of abstract expressionism, minimalism and Russian constructivism, graffiti removal has secured its place in the history of modern art while being created by artists who are unconscious of their artistic achievements.”
