2013 Chicago Underground Film Festival
March 6–10, 2013
at the Logan Theatre, 2646 N Milwaukee Ave (map)
The Chicago Underground Film Festival opens tonight with a double 16mm projector performance by Sandra Gibson, Luis Recoder and Olivia Block, and new video work by Jesse Malmed. If you’re in Chicago, or the Chicago area, and you’re reading this, you better make it out to a CUFF screening. The CHI city weather might be sloppy and frightful, but the movies are abstruse and delightful.
This year’s CUFF features new work by Matt McCormick, Jim Trainor, Jesse McLean, Mark Toscano, Jesse Malmed, Kent Lambert, Jodie Mack, Robert Todd, Ben Rivers, Bryan Boyce, Deborah Stratman, Dani Leventhal, Mike Olenick, and more.
Below is the quick schedule for the 2013 Chicago Underground Film Festival. All screenings take place at the Logan Theatre (2646 N Milwaukee Ave).

Mary Rachel Kostreva
Mary Rachel Kostreva came from the south (ATL, Georgia), went to school on the east coast, and now resides on the West Coast in LA. Some of her music video work (vide The-Drum – $) exemplifies her adeptness at selecting-and-sifting through found footage, therefore we felt she’d be a perfect fit for top5. Here are her top5 videos.

Repatriation Drift
“Typing on Goggle UK the acronym PNG, to search for low quality, easy to transfer images, the multi-visual scrolling surprises you with a 1984 image, taken during Prince Charles’ visit to Papua New Guinea, (PNG). The prince standing still, dressed with local outfit and decorations is accompanied by dancers.
PNG’s cultural artefacts appropriated by Germans and English during their colonisation of the Island are now part of a digital repatriation initiative.
The project’s aim is to return 3D virtual copies of Malagan funerary masks — up to date still conserved in Berlin — to its communities. The digital copy becomes an informative, yet distant, substitute of the real object.”
