This Week @ 7:00pm
"GONE"
Gone is a sketch of the void at the heart of absence. But there is no utter absence, there will always be a plus 1. The laws of physics are tattooed on the heart of the story: a sketch of life in the vacuum of stasis, the heart of the singularity where the sun burns from the other side of the curtain. In Gone, variance is hope, expectation, potential… But it’s also the enemy: a high entropy state that renders one incapacitated. Based off a story by Ian Wolff

Marcin Ramocki BROOKLYN DIY
Brooklyn DIY is a long overdue examination of the creative renaissance in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Home to underground warehouse parties, anarchistic street creativity, and artist-run galleries and performance spaces, Williamsburg gave birth to one of the most vibrant and rebellious artistic communities to arise in the 1980s, permanently changing the city's cultural landscape. Featuring interviews with a host of artists and neighborhood characters, Ramocki's film captures life in a utopian universe made by artists, for artists alone with its inevitable decline in the face of real estate development, gentrification, and the post September 11 market collapse.
