from the maker of Gambling, Gods, and LSD,
Peter Mettler and friends invite you to an evening of improvised
audio-visual adventure. An uncharted “live cinema” journey through a
multitude of interesting places and states.
Please join us for this very special occasion bringing together a
diversity of local and European artists offering up their unique talents
in an eight-hour fusion of live manipulated image and sound.
The majestic old Church at Berkley will house this expanded cinematic
experience, taking you on a journey from the beginnings of Shadowplay
and Gamelan, on to expressive blends of classic/jazz/electronica,
culminating in full-on dance beats.
A wide palette of collected moving pictures and mixing/effects
possibilities will be engaged to create one-time-only projections in
concert with each musical passage.
Watch, meditate, dance or socialize through a seamless series of
transitions of form, emotion and state. We look forward to your presence
in the mix.
Elsewhere – where music meets cinema - and cinema meets dance - in a
place they used to call a church.
live image mixing:
Peter Mettler is an incomparable talent in Canadian cinema. The
innovation and audacity of his work, his dedication to the cinematic art
form, and his ability to conjure up images that remain permanently
etched in one's mind, secures his place as one of this country's most
distinguished contemporary filmmakers." Piers Handling, Director of the
Toronto International Film Festival.
Mettler is known for a diversity of work in image and sound mediums –
foremost for his films such as “Picture of Light” and “Gambling, Gods
and LSD” but also as a photographer and groundbreaking live audio/visual
mixing performer. His work bridges the gap between experimental,
narrative, personal essay, and documentary. He has collaborated with an
extensive range of international artists and has been honored with
awards and retrospectives worldwide.
He is your host of the evening, this event being part of the "Canadian
Retrospective", honoring his artistic achievements by the Toronto
International Film Festival. Visit e.bell.ca/filmfest for info on other
