On Location
Director: Kayla Parker
Year: 2017
A hybrid form of landscape cinema capturing the year of an unnamed hollow way that forms the stream bed for several springs in a remote area of rural mid-Devon, Britain, the film takes time to notice the human and non-human traces of change along the sunken lane.
Sunset Strip
Director: Kayla Parker
Year: 2009
A dazzling expression of the visual music revealed by 365 setting suns. Over 4500 time-lapse drawings were painted directly onto a continuous strip of 35mm film using a variety of materials such as nail varnish, hair, bleach, net stocking and magnolia petals. Arts Council England and Channel 4 Animate Award.
Moving Sound
Director: Sadia Pineda Hameed
Year: 2025
MOVING SOUND is a speculative work set across 1980s and near-future Wales, shot on super 16mm. In the film, sounds of present day anti-colonial and anti-capitalist strategies for mining strikes are transmitted from Soundcamp streamboxes to the past via an underground, time travelling broadcast. In the 1980s, workers build DIY receivers from Moving Sound portable audio devices, which they use to distribute the broadcast around sites of production and the everyday. First screened in the King Coal Experience (an immersive recreation of the Big Pit underground mine) amidst disused mining machinery, MOVING SOUND blurs fictional 16mm and archival 8mm footage of sonic action to explore how organising converges and enacts across geographies, temporality, fantasy and reality.
