INCLUDING

THE LIGHT OF EONS, David O. Rogers (New York, U.S.)

MAESTRO, Géza M. Tóth (Veszprém, Hungary)

1969, Paul Guglielmotti (Rome, Italy)

and... LOOKING FOR TECHNOLOGY, Emily Lacy (California, U.S.)

"Looking For Technology" is the first in a series of what is both a film comic and realist folk musical.  Occupying the space of a pre-verbal cinema, the film meanders through the daydreams of a young man, Roland Blue, and his various interactions with electricity, symbology, and narrative.  The film is a constant provocation of the space between and the conflicts within man and machine, time and money, men and women, language and song.
