Films will begin at 7:15pm. Once the screenings are finished, we've invited Alex and Michael to perform on tambura (a Macedonian lute) and tabla. In the background, we'll screen what Coan "Buddy" Nichols likes to call "cloud porn", super-8 footage he's shot out the windows of airplanes. At the same time, we'll count the audience ballots. Then around 9pm, we'll declare the winners.
The evening will also include a special screening of "Walking Taipei", a 5-minute short by Buddy Nichols that he shot during an Urban Nomad-sponsored residency in late 2010 and just finished editing about 3 days ago. It's just so good we couldn't wait!
