On Sunday, May 28th, in conjunction with the 2023 FMSAC Conference and LIFT's Analogue Resilience: Film Labs Gathering, A/CA organized a hybrid screening and live expanded cinema performance event featuring the work of Vancouver-based artists Lindsay McIntyre and Peter Bussigel. The two short films that were screened were McIntyre's her silent life (31 min, 2012) and seeing her (3 min, 2020), and the collaborative performance was a piece titled Worth More Standing (40 min, 2022). For more information on the artists and their work, please click here.
