PLANT ROOM

PLANT ROOM

by Jeron Braxon & Julian Glander Plant Room moves a 360 camera through four virtual environments, each one increasingly saturated with technology and decreasingly populated by actual organic life. As a transparent eyeball, the viewer is encouraged to examine these environments from every angle, while contemplating the necessary trade-off and balance between digital stimulation and oneness with nature.

Black Diamond Presents: Rhythm

We may call BD Athlete Joe Grant a “runner guy,” but honestly, those words fail to give a true notion of what he actually does. Truth is, Joe Grant heads into the mountains for a lot more than running. And what he finds out there, high among the craggy peaks, is what he likes to call rhythm. In this film, we captured Joe in his element, doing his thing and searching for that rhythm, deep in the heart of the Alps. Enjoy. Video: Cheyne Lempe

"Lovers Sleep Together" -- Sneak Preview Episode of 'The Eyeslicer'

"Lovers Sleep Together" -- Sneak Preview Episode of 'The Eyeslicer'

"One of the craziest TV shows you'll ever see. It could revolutionize short film distribution." -Indiewire Fresh off its premiere at the 2017 Tribeca Film Festival, THE EYESLICER is a new hourlong 'secret TV show' from the bizarre minds of Dan Schoenbrun and Vanessa McDonnell (COLLECTIVE:UNCONSCIOUS). Like an Internet-age spiritual successor to MTV’s beloved 120 MINUTES & LIQUID TELEVISION, this ten-episode series aims to create an online safe haven for boundary-pushing, transgressive, proudly weird American filmmaking. From vérité documentary to amateur computer animation; surreal horror to remix video art; haunted high school yearbooks to Sasquatch birth rituals; time traveling cats to live web streams of your own birth -- if it sounds too strange for Netflix, chances are you'll find it on THE EYESLICER. To watch the full ten-episode, ten-hour first season of The Eyeslicer for the price of an email address, visit http://ift.tt/2iGQmBM and answer the following trivia question: Who does 'Twin Peaks' and 'Sunset Boulevard' have in common? (answer in one-word, all-caps). "Lovers Sleep Together" is the 8th episode of the series. It's all about love, relationships, and sex. It features: "Gwilliam," dir. BRIAN LONANO (http://ift.tt/1Ungrkg) -- "Skunk," dir. ANNIE SILVERSTIEN (http://ift.tt/2iGDEDd) "Chocolate Heart," dir.
