SAPPHIRE AND THE SLAVE GIRL

March
Eye Am Not a Robot
(U.S., 2010) By Mark X Farina & Gerry Fialka, 14 minutes

Co-directed by Flint native Gerry Fialka, this film probes the concept of technology “being alive” by evoking early Russian film and the theory of constructivism. Cultural icons from James Joyce to Robby the Robot to Marilyn Monroe are your humanoid guides through new art technologies. Can machines surpass humans in the creative process?

Tetragama

April
Their Then Now
(U.S., 1999) By Richard Carlyon, 6 minutes

The late Virginia-based educator, video artist and dance specialist, Richard Carlyon re-choreographs a scene of Fred Astaire and Rita Hayworth dancing The Shorty George from the film You Were Never Lovelier. Carlyon’s constant repetition of certain moves and gestures creates a fascinating re-interpretation.
