i highly recomend everybody that can get to the palace of fine arts tonite, GO THERE!! do not miss this. i've been going to these refests ever since the first one years ago, when it started out as just a small prsentation of electronic music videos shot with high resolution graphics, animated clips, even some live videos too. it was so small when refest started that the first year they couldn't afford to rent out theatre/hall so they had it at the minna street gallery, and if you've ever been there in SF, then you know it's not a place really big enough for any screen, then put up a what looked like a temp. screen and shot it from a projecter in the back by the bar... well either way, since then they've moved up to getting the palace of fine arts to host it for them. also, if somebody is looking for a job in graphic design, it's the perfect place to go, all the big names in computer graphic design are gonna be there tonite showcasing their newest software and hardwar before the actual show. in the past they've shown videos from aphex twin, autechre, dj spooky, meat beat manifesto, space time continuum, orb, etc. but this year they have new autechre vid, AND their first ever squarepusher vid, which i heard was directed by chris cunningham. damn, that should be interesting. either way. go. im gonna be the kinda short brown guy with short black and yellow hair. and im going there after work so i won't be changing and im wearing a orange t-shirt. say hi to me. please. and remember, a bad transfer corona wire will never do you any good, unless you like faded spots in your copies. -kiya i am a copier. we are not all copiers. -----Original Message----- From: sfwd productions <xxxx@xxxxx.xxx> To: xxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx <xxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx> Date: Thursday, September 24, 1998 9:21 PM Subject: (idm) sf idm 'event' and ? Caught the below happening on the SFRaves list... Anyone know offhand if the 'Cinema Electronica' is simply the name given to the showing of these videos or if this is a collection possibly available on videocassette (or a released movie of sorts)?
