San Francisco (New Experimental Cinema)
Synopsis
Experimental filmmaker Paul Clipson directed this short subject, in which images of a city at night are manipulated into an impressionistic celebration of color, shape and texture. Clipson marries these images to the sounds of the San Francisco post-rock ensemble Tarentel, whose abstract fusion of electronics and organic rhythms compliment the visuals. (Tarantel have scored several of Clipson’s previous projects, while the filmmaker often uses his images as moving backdrops at the group’s concerts.) Watercolor Night Montage No. 7 was screened as part of the “At The Edge: New Experimental Cinema” series at the 2007 San Francisco International Film Festival. —Mark Deming, Rovi
