Texas Governor Gregg Abbott wants you to know you have “the right to control and secure your own body” — unless, that is, you’re seeking an abortion.
Speaking out against vaccine mandates, Abbott told Fox News host Sean Hannity on Friday night, “This is whether or not somebody is going to have something put into their body that they do not want put into their body. That’s more than freedom, that’s the right to control and secure your own body. And that’s exactly why we’re winning on this issue.

Part One of this series is about the origin of the Robert Beck Memorial Cinema (Rbmc). Part Two covers all the screenings in 1998.
Continuing into 1999 at the Collective Unconscious theater space in NYC, the Rbmc — co-programmed by Brian L. Frye and Bradley Eros — went on hiatus for the first week of the year, but resumed on January 12. Below is a list of screenings from then until a May 18 event that celebrated the Rbmc’s first full year of existence.
The films and filmmakers selected to screen by Frye and Eros represent an interesting time in the sphere of avant-garde and experimental cinema. Up until this point, there seemed to be a distinct separation between the formal style of, say, structuralism, and the more raucous, punk rock world of the “underground.” However, in the 1990s, these two worlds appear to be colliding. The Rbmc seemed just as content screening Hollis Frampton‘s Critical Mass (Feb.

I’ve been making 16mm durational urban landscape voiceover films, slowly but surely, since the late ‘90s. My short film Blue Diary premiered at the Berlinale in 1998. My two features, The Joy of Life (2005) and The Royal Road (2015) both premiered in the prestigious New Frontiers section at the Sundance Film Festival and have been as wildly successful as experimental films can be. Which is to say, they remain fairly obscure. My small but enthusiastic fan-base frequently asks me for recommendations of films that are similar to my own in terms of incorporating durational landscapes and voiceover and a meditative pace. While it is certainly one of the smallest subgenres in the realm of filmmaking, here are a handful of excellent landscape cinema examples by the practitioners I know best. I confess that my expertise here is limited and hope that the learned Mubi community will chime in with additions in the comments field below.

The National Film Preservation Foundation has announced their annual Avant-Garde Masters Grants winners — their list of organizations that have been awarded funds to preserve classic and important avant-garde, experimental and underground films.
This year, five organizations — Anthology Film Archives, Bard College, New York University, the UCLA Film & Television Archive and the Wisconsin Center for Film and Theater Research — have been awarded grants to preserve 10 films made by five different filmmakers.
The films include several made by significant figures in the ’60s underground film movement, such as Globe (1971) by Ken Jacobs and two by Shirley Clarke, Butterfly (1967) and 24 Frames Per Second (1977). Also from the ’60s is a rare film by artist Ed Ruscha, who is primarily known for his painting and photography, but did make some films, such as the to-be-preserved The Books of Ed Ruscha (ca. 1969).
Several more modern films will be preserved, such as four by pop culture remixer...
