The Canadian Film Institute’s long-running guest artist Canadian experimental cinema series, Café Ex, will have its milestone 25th season this year, starting at the end of November.
Vancouver native and now Toronto-based moving image artist Kurt Walker offers a compelling and inventive cinematic language that weaves together images drawn from multimedia, gaming, and other audio-visual sources. His arresting work chronicles the peculiar sense of community that those ubiquitous moving image technologies can generate. It also suggests that perhaps modernity itself resides in our accelerated times in that very multi-layered fusion of mediated spaces with actual ones.
