- Notes:
- In the fifth program of JPEX, devoted to contemporary film, video, and animation, a complex interaction between the historical trajectory of Japanese avant-garde traditions and the current global economy of multi-media exchange is explored. Ranging from the use of found footage to subversions of narrativity, from the revelation of hybrid sexualities to formal explorations of perception and space, these media-works question the dynamics of our visual-temporal experience. Notions of national identity are expanded to reveal hybrid and shifting national and cultural identities. Program notes and curation by Jonathan M. Hall and Michelle Puetz.
