Filmmaker, video artist and current president of the Paris Films Co-Op Dominique Willoughby returns to the show to discuss his own film and video works.
Fascinated by the hypnotic power of cinema, his films and videos are simultaneously mesmerising and energetic experiences. In this episode, Dominique discusses his career from his earliest experimental works, (inspired variously by CinéDoc founders Guy Fihman and Claudine Eizykman as well as international artists Len Lye and Michael Snow) as he forged his own path to create a unique body of work. Also fascinated by pre-cinema artefacts, particularly Phenakistiscope stroboscopic discs, Dominique's films explore the viewer's capacity for perception in a manner quite unlike any other filmmaker.
This episode features music from Parazite Système Sonore: Spot Phelizon & Joëlle Colombeau as well as music by Kaumwald.
Dominique's book Cinéma Graphique (in French) is available to buy from Amazon.
