TO START AGAIN IS BRANCHES IN WHAT YEAR OF MY LIFE _ Will VanKoughnett

Étude for Hokushin Apollo QL-100: 16mm silent black-and-white-and-color, live accompaniment in stereo sound and spoken word. The voice of the projector is regurgitated and extended over a series of images and text, an automated call-and-response mimicking the memory of the seasons and rehearsing a future myth of nature-place haunted by a poet.

Silent Clinking _ Ayesha Bashir

This piece reconstructs memory through cultural memorabilia and explores the role of objects in fostering nostalgia. It also investigates the reliability of memory as a form of remembrance, as the protagonist fails to remember her first memory.

This film is left intentionally unsubtitled as I wanted my non-Urdu/Hindi-speaking audience to understand the piece emotionally and visually, and I believe that the sentiments conveyed are not difficult to decipher. A learning experience of sorts, that most immigrants end up with while learning English.

This piece also pays homage to one of my favorite poets, Aria Aber, and her piece: The Only Cab Service of Farmington, Maine. It has helped me remember and I am very grateful for that.
