Visual Arts / Film Roger Beebe screens multi-projector films tonight

Last time Roger Beebe came through town with his multi-projector films, he played to a packed house at the now-houseless Eyedrum. He'll be in town tonight, ending a long U.S. tour at GSU's Dael Theater. As his press release notes, "Beebe explores the possibilities of using multiple projectors—running as many as 8 projectors simultaneously—not for a free-form VJ-type experience, but for the creation of discrete works of expanded cinema." As Beebe moves from from projector to projector, layering film atop film, he creates an engaged unexpected feeling of simultaneous performance and screening. It's an experience that can't be reproduced on YouTube, though feel free to check out the clip above, anyway.
Films for One to Eight Projectors, short films by Roger Beebe, starts at 7 pm, Nov. 29 at DAEL Theater at Georgia State University, One Park Place. More details.
