Animating Principles: The MovieSometimes, even the agenda has an agenda.
Set in an experimental art space in the desert, this boardroom melodrama tracks infestations of the bureaucratic within the tenuous infrastructure of the poetic. With reverence for thirty years of collective organising at Watch This Space, we witness a meeting of wonky proportions.

Animating Principles will be proudly screened alongside two other short experimental films – Itchy IOUs by Liang Luscombe and Wantee by Laure Prouvost. Each of these works ask questions about value, constructing fantastical realities using the ingredients of our own. The entities in these works negotiate incessantly shifting terrain, whether it is being dug down into, hoisted on ones back, or eaten away at surreptitiously. Through “absurd characters in plausible predicaments” as Amber Esseiva describes them in the context of Liang’s work, we recognise ourselves as plausible characters in absurd predicaments.
