Georgia Institute of Technology's Experimental Film and Media
Favs/dislikes: 7:0. [b]Course Description:[/b] This course provides an overview of experimental moving images from the European "city symphonies" and abstract films of the 1920s to the flowering of the American postwar avant-garde; from the advent of video art in the 1960s to the online viral videos and digital gallery installations of today. The class thus surveys the artists, institutions, and viewers that have fostered moving image art throughout the history of film, and asks students to consider the historical, social, and institutional forces that have engendered oppositional, political, and aesthetically radical cinemas. A central premise of the course is that technological developments such as video and new media are not historical ruptures, but rather, part of an ongoing tradition of moving-image art making. Other core topics will include the consideration of the meaning and use-value of the avant-garde, the issue of “artists’ film and video” as opposed to “experimental film,” and the thorny relationship between avant-garde and commercial filmmaking.

Viennale's The Way of the Termite: The Essay in Film 1909-2004
Favs/dislikes: 8:0. The Essay in Cinema was organized by The Austrian Film Museum and originally presented at the Viennale (Vienna International Film Festival) in October 2007. [quote]The extensive programme was curated by the French filmmaker and theorist Jean-Pierre Gorin who lives and teaches in San Diego and whose own work - partly created in collaboration with Jean-Luc Godard - includes important contributions to the "essayistic strategy” in cinema. Gorin has selected 60 works from 20 nations - among them a number of classics of film history as well as numerous (re-)discoveries. Beyond the characteristic and often-quoted elements - such as the presence of the author’s voice and the first person singular perspective chosen by many of these films - the essay film according to Gorin "is a rumination in Nietzsche's sense of the word, the meandering of an intelligence that tries to multiply the entries and the exits into the material it has elected (or has been elected by).[/quote] -

UC Berkeley's History of Avant Garde Film
Favs/dislikes: 10:0. A course taught at Berkeley in the fall of 2012 by Professor Jeffrey Skoller. [i]“Beauty will be convulsive or will not be at all!” -- Andre Breton Avant-garde film is a cinema of subversion, of sensual perversion, filled with constantly challenging, unruly images and ideas that are often messy, sublime and like life, complicated! Avant-Garde Film is also a cinema of counter-culture whose filmmakers are challenging the edges of aesthetic, social, intellectual and sexual, acceptability. Not bound by the bottom line of corporate checkbooks and middle-brow gentility, avant-garde cinema challenges us to see, think and feel differently. Each film is a pipe cleaner for the mind clearing out sludge from years of watching the mind numbing conventions of shopping mall cinema and infantilizing info-tainment TV. We explore the rich and varied history of films made by fine artists who are experimenting with the formal, perceptual and narrative elements of film as well as looking at the poetic traditions of the first person cinema. Through weekly screenings, the reading of word texts, talking to visiting artists, discussing and writing about the films as well as making short filmic artworks, we move back and forth between historical and contemporary practices sampling from the garden of underground, personal, poetic, queer, surrealist cinemas, feminist, structural-materialist, punk, found films, love films and smash-the-state films![/i] The Dante Quartet by Brakhage is listed twice. Pushcarts of Eternity by Ken Jacobs (2006, 10 minutes) is listed but I can only find [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1961587/]The Pushcarts leave Eternity Street (2011, 13 min)[/url] which doesn't seem the same so I did not add it. (Posthumous) by Ghassan Salhab (2007, 28 minutes) does not seem to be on IMDb. Dead Weight of a Quarrel Hangs by Walid Raad (2001, 18minutes) does not seem to be on IMDb. -
Criterion War Films
Favs/dislikes: 11:0. The continuing cultural fascination with World War II has ensured that it’s the conflict most represented in cinema, and the Criterion Collection indeed contains more works about that massive conflagration than any other—whether harrowing dramas made right in its crosshairs (like Rome Open City) or poetic studies produced decades later (like The Thin Red Line)—seen through the eyes of filmmakers from many nations. But there are battle cries from other epochs in the collection as well, and taken together, these films embody a history of human combat, from the brother-against-brother bloodshed of the American Civil War (Ride with the Devil) to the trench warfare of the First World War (Wooden Crosses) to the jungle skirmishes of the Cuban Revolution (Che). -
National Film Registry by Registry Entry Title
Favs/dislikes: 11:0. List of all 700 titles to date inducted into the National Film Registry (the United States National Film Preservation Board's selection of films for preservation in the Library of Congress) by registry entry title.

Masters of cinema on Blu Ray
Favs/dislikes: 12:0. This list is the little brother of the official list https://www.icheckmovies.com/lists/masters+of+cinema/ and only features the releases of the masters of cinema/eureka label on blu ray. From the Masters of cinema website: "Blu-ray is the most immersive and faithful representation of "the cinema experience" currently available in the home today (outside of a costly 35mm projector). Unfortunately, the industry has poorly explained and demonstrated the technology, sowing confusion and giving the impression that Blu-ray is not enough of a worthwhile upgrade from DVD. When compared with an actual 35mm frame, the DVD format — now well into its second decade as the world's favourite film-holding receptacle — is akin to a Polaroid of an oil painting. Watchable, but capable of being far surpassed. Blu-ray is the first home format to adequately represent the depth and texture of celluloid — and in a Blu-ray marketplace overflowing with mainstream tat, we aim to offer a nourishing alternative. Consequently, we heartily recommend upgrading to a multi-region Blu-ray player. We released our first Blu-ray in November 2008 and the format is currently our main focus." The list is ranked according to the blu-ray spine numbers given by masters of cinema, but because some numbers contain more than one title, the numbering is different. -
