Hello Frameworks community, The Walker in Minneapolis has turned their annual Sound for Silents program into an on-line program this year. This free 44-minute screening features new commissioned soundtracks from Twin Cities based Beatrix*Jar, Andrew Broder, Lady Midnight, Cody McKinney, and Dameun Strange. Each artist selected a film from the Walker’s Ruben/Bentson Moving Image Collection to score, including works by filmmakers Bruce Baillie, Tom DeBiaso, Rock Ross, Robert Banks, Buki Bodunrin, Mark Bradford, and Kara Walker.
https://walkerart.org/calendar/2020/virtual-sound-for-silents-2020 As the sound artists developed their work this spring and summer, events in the world—from deepening isolation and anxiety related to the pandemic to the uprising over the police murder of George Floyd—permeated some of their soundtracks, creating a fusion between historic film works and contemporary sounds. The program is Free and runs until Sept 8th, 2020. Thanks, Michael Walsh Assistant Curator/Archivist Moving Image Walker Art Center
