Fracto announces a political statement: "The streaming initiative was not only about sharing or showing films, but about clarifying how artists need to constantly strive to meet society's demands without giving anything back."
And it's slogan (or that of its host venue) resonates with the words now familiar to so many artists, "Arbeit macht frei." All the images in its oniline gif cycle are black-and-white. Experimental film lovers, it's time to begin thinking. Where is Incite! journal when you need it? And who knows how to harness the continually updated Facebook algorithms to this list? Or . . would it be better to restrict ourselves to this text-based, controlled environment? I admit it, I just consider submitting stuff. But not really. I always decide against it nowadays. It seems somehow off topic. What that slogan is supposed to tell us I am not sure. It reminds me of the injunction professional athletes used to hear, give back to your community (because you came from one that enjoys few privileges and you were lifted out of it by the commercial success of what you could do so well.).
