The Otolith Group was founded by Kodwo Eshun and Anjalika Sagar in London in 2002. Their work encompasses video, installation, exhibition making and publications. [Link: http://otolithgroup.org] Films: In the Year of the Quiet Sun, The Otolith Group, UK, 2013, digital, 34 minutes, English In the Year of the Quiet Sun takes its name from the decrease in solar surface temperature that occurs every eleven years. From November 1964 to November 1965, the nation states of the world issued postage stamps to commemorate the first scientific expedition to study the sun. As the stamps turn their face towards the sky, they overlook the unstable land of Africa's newly independent states, confronting the astronomical time of the quiet sun with the political calendar of Pan-Africanist conferences in Accra, Addis Ababa, Bandung, Berlin and Casablanca. Anathema, The Otolith Group, UK, 2011, digital, 37 minutes, English Anathema reimagines the microscopic behaviour of liquid crystals undergoing turbulence as a sentient entity that possesses fingertips enthralled by the LCD touchscreens of communicative capitalism. In isolating and recombining the magical gestures of dream factory capitalism, Anathema proposes itself as a prototype for a counter-spell assembled from the possible worlds of capitalist sorcery. People to Be Resembling, The Otolith Group, UK, 2012, digital, 22 minutes, English People to Be Resembling is a pentagonal portrait of Codona, the post-free jazz, pre-world music trio founded by multi-instrumentalists Collin Walcott, Don Cherry and Nana Vasconcelos in 1978. In its arrangement of positive and negative stills with colour and black and white moving images and original compositions by Charles Hayward, People to be Resembling reimagines the process of recording as a meditation upon permutation and cohabitation. 2023-06-21 Birkbeck College, University of London Essay Film Festival http://purl.org/dc/terms/isPartOf /id/eprint/244 yes bimi metadata_and_data_files no student The Essay Film Festival ran between 2015 and 2023, and presented a global range of contemporary and restored essayistic works.
