IRiSs Lab #7: mined machine dreams
Halifax Independent Filmmakers Festival
North Street Church: 7:00pm April 17, 2010

IRiSs Lab #7 presents an experiential cinematic experience, utilizing the science and mystery of stroboscopic light theory and the Sufi inspired Dream Machine design patterns of artist Brion Gysin. This revolutionary kaleidoscopic cyclone will involve the live manipulation of projected images through the use of prisms, mirrors, and lenses as well as live sonic interpolations from the audience and the architectural space around them. Images of psychiatric experiments and counter culture recreational activities of the 1960s will float, flutter, and flicker throughout the space as the research technicians monitor their audience test subjects.

WARNING: STROBOSCOPIC EFFECTS MAY INDUCE EPILEPTIC SEIZURES IN APPROXIMATELY 1/14000 SUBJECTS. SUBJECTS MAY ALSO EXPERIENCE SOME BENEFITS.
