Genres: experimental

  • Babies on the Sun

    “Babies on the Sun” offers nostalgic, weathered images of “childhood” inspired by the song of the same name by the band Sparklehorse. The textured and layered style of the film gives the impression of blurred memories floating in the subconscious mind. The images, half visible, are abstracted through a process of visual degradation, suggesting the effect of time on memory, and mystified through collage, revealing the non-linear configurations of memory where images dwell in interesting and emotionally cumulative juxtapositions.

  • Dust

    “Dust” is an interpretation of choreographic work of Julia Sasso. The film portrays the intimate physical relationship of two dancers. The interpretive shooting style of the film unveils the emotional drama between the subjects.

  • Thirst

    “Tammy Ballaban wants to leave her mark, to be remembered, to stay safe. So she stops eating. ‘Thirst’ is an unconventional and beautifully structured meditation about eating disorders, hunger and desire, our need for identity, and control. A sumptuous collage of image and sound reflects the amorphous dialectic between conscious and unconscious drives.” – Lynne Fernie Selected screenings: Documentary Channel (Ontario), broadcast, 2006; Toronto Worldwide Short Film Festival, 2002; Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival, Toronto, 2002; Taiwan International Documentary Film Festival, 2002.

  • The Touch

    A styling babe finds out that sometimes what you touch can really take you there.

  • Rich

    A woman of the world finds herself lost, and lost, and lost again.

  • Babble on Palms, The

    The “Babble on Palms” is a lush and vibrant cameraless animation, combining found footage, scratch and inking techniques with the universal language of music. Individuality, censorship, shared experiences, and unseen auras are just some of the topics examined in this short experimental animation by Canadian filmmaker, Steven Woloshen. Perhaps, when our ears cease to listen, the “Babble on” palms, speak. Made on September 12th, 2001 in response to the previous day’s event. Suitable for all ages and audiences.

  • C’est la vie

    “A mini-presentation of consciousness dealing with cosmos. The world in a grain of sand. Connections between life, death, and the world are neither static nor symmetrical but flowing and intuitive. The movement of emulsion through which images are seen is like the mind trying to retrieve and put things together. “C’est la vie” is a positive muscular little thing.” – Rae Davis Sound by Rainer Wiens.

  • Luminous

    Film as history, propaganda, time travel, and the movement of light.

  • Sexual Meditations: Office Suite

    This film evolves from several years’ observation of the sexual energy, which charges the world of business and the qualities of palatial environ which this energy often creates. It is one of the most perfect films that has been given to me to make. (SB)

  • Sexual Meditations: Hotel

    This film takes its cue from that ultimate situation of Sex/Med/masturbation – the loft-and-lonely hotel room. It is thus easily twice the length and complexity of any other in the series. (SB)
