Sound On Screen

New Music Circle presents an evening of experimental films at the Hi-Pointe Theatre.  This selection of films focuses on varied approaches to experimental sound in avant garde film, highlighting techniques ranging from ingenious uses of diegetic audio, experimental music (both soundtrack and live performance), and heavily manipulated found-sound materials.

  • Harmonica (1971) – Larry Gottheim
  • Bridges-Go-Round (1958) – Shirley Clarke
  • Outer Space (1999) – Peter Tscherkassky
