11 > 22 OCTOBER 2011 IN VOORUIT

In Almost Cinema, organised by the Vooruit Arts Centre and the Ghent 
Film Festival, artists from a variety of disciplines offer the audience 
a different take on cinema.

In Vooruit, the Ghent Film Festival opens with /Magic Trip/: a 
freewheeling portrait of Ken Kesey and the Merry Prankster’s fabled road 
trip across America in the legendary Magic Bus in 1964. Unprecedented 
access to raw footage!


The artists who take part in the /Almost Cinema exhibition /dissect or 
broaden the ordinary cinema experience as they experiment with sound, 
image, light, space and movement.

Featuring: Julius von Bismarck (Space Beyond Me, 2009), H.C. Gilje 
(Blink, 2009), Ant Hampton & Britt Hatzius (This is not my voice 
speaking, 2011), Kathy Hinde (Dancing Cranes, 2010 and Piano Migrations, 
2008/2010), Wouter Huis (Disclaimer, 2011), Wim Janssen (Continuization 
Loop, 2010), Diane Landry (Chevalier de la résignation infinie, 2009), 
Tina Tonagel (Effektgerät, Stollen Stollen Abgesang and a brand new 
installation)

After two years of extensive international touring with the Holocene 
cycle (‘Jerusalem’, ‘Iqaluit’, ‘Bonanza’ and ‘Moscow’), the artist 
collective /Berlin/ has embarked on a new cycle called Horror Vacui. The 
first project in this new cycle is the documentary ‘Tagfish’, which is 
presented as a performance.

‘Every minute, always’, a collaboration between /Melanie Wilson and 
Abigail Conway/, is a cinema experience for two. Seated among other 
couples, the experience unfolds through their headphones, in symbiosis 
with what they see on screen. A playful remix of ‘Brief Encounter’.

/Sam Amidon /likes to experiment with adaptations of folk songs, gospel 
songs, pop music… For ‘Home alone inside my heart’, he has transformed 
himself into a born storyteller with a great sense of humour.

/Circumstance/ will take the Almost Cinema audiences to an undisclosed 
location in the city for a cinematic #subtlemob exploring trust and 
suspicion in public spaces (‘Our broken voice’).
