Key funded projects

Changing Forms of Silence: Curating Silent Films in Multimedia Environment, ECR Research Grant, 秋葵视频, UK (2018-2019). Recent years have seen an explosion of the performance of live music to silent films. Ranging from conventional solo piano performances, to organs, theremins, electronic music, and large orchestras performing a specially written score, today's cultural institutions compete in curating and delivering programmes of 'film concerts' focusing specifically on silent films. With the case study of programming Russian silent films this project will question intermediality of silent cinema and live music on several levels. Is this a form of survival or revival of silent films in our contemporary multimedia environment? What do electronic and experimental scores bring to silent films as a medium? What happens to the agency of in-betweeness in this case – is it within composers, directors, performers, or audiences? What are the curating practices and policies of this intermediality, especially investigated through such a politicised historical context?
