Presenting an new installation by Peter Cramer
I WANT TO BE LEFT A LOON!
A bird, a lake, a landscape. A comic and tragic multi media
installation. Greta Garbo's quote as inspiration, “I never said, ‘I
want to be alone.’ I only said, ‘I want to be left alone.’ There is
all the difference,” .
Special thanks to Sur Rodney (Sur) and Materials for the Arts.

> Schedule Overview
>
> Tues, Nov 17 | 8 PM
> Opening Night: Making All Local Stops
> This year, MIX takes off with Green Fuse on the express track, a
> swirl of colors and frenetic editing. On the local track, pause with
> the meditative biography of Delphinium, about the early life of
> Derek Jarman. The works in this show are from all boroughs, and
> terminate Swedish-style with an erotic interpretation of everyone's
> caboose.
>
> Weds, Nov 18 | 7.30 PM
> Bulldozed!
> From Brooklyn to Berlin to Nova Scotia, the films in this program
> trace different histories of gentrification and corporate takeover
> from the late 1960s to present day. From Brooklyn to Berlin to Nova
> Scotia, the films in this program trace different histories of
> gentrification and corporate takeover from the late 1960s to present
> day. Vanessa Renwick's House of Sound portrays a loss in Detroit,
> while Jem Cohen longs for the city of New York with Patti Smith, and
> Samara Halperin laments Astroland.
>
>
> Weds, Nov 18 | 10 PM
> Our Gorgeous Nightmares
> MIX presents a banquet of fragrant imagery and flagrant catastrophe,
> fashioned by directors making love with designers and actors
> doubling as models poised on Jungian runways in hyper-colored
> darkness and swimming in dreamscapes encrusted with poetic texture.
>
>
> Thurs, Nov 19 | 6 PM
> Facilitate This!
> EE Miller, guest curator
> Facilitate This! considers representations of "the meeting" in queer
> imagination and history. How do we imagine meeting? How do we come
> together? The program includes a montage of fabulous meetings from
> features and movements past; a selection of short films; and
> presentations for the "perfect meeting" from kara lynch, Sarah
> Schulman, and Ginger Brooks Takahashi.
>
>
> Thurs, Nov 19 | 8 PM
> Fig Trees
> Fig Tress is an operatic documentary about the struggle of two AIDS
> activists--Canadian Tim McCaskell and South African Zackie Achmat.

> drugs to treat AIDS. In John Greyson's film they are ably supported
> by Gertrude Stein, a singing albino squirrel, and St. Teresa of Avila.
>
>
> Thurs, Nov 19 | 10 PM
> Luminous Darkness
> Daniel Mckernan, guest curator
> After the success of Homoccult & Other Esoterotica (MIX 2007), this

> psychedelic wild boys. This is a new set of magickal, sexually
> transgressive videos focusing on erotic ritual and performance.
> Luigi & Luca, Lukas Beyeler, Gio Black Peter, Dominic
> Johnson,JodyJock, Zackary Drucker, and others show us works dealing
> with sex, violence, the occult, magick, and other mystic esoterica.
>
>
> Fri, Nov 20 | 7 PM
> Stepping Out of Time
> Breaking down the language of dance, and luring the human form into
> new realms of cinematic experimentation, the films in this program
> are stories told primarily with the body, and its capacity to
> communicate with its shape and momentum. With a world premiere from
> Arthur Aviles and US premiere by Mara Mattuschka & Chis Harring.
>
>
> Fri, Nov 20 | 7.30 PM @ Union Docs
> Travel Queeries*
> Travel Queeries is a feature documentary film that explores the
> life, culture, art and activism of queer individuals and groups
> throughout a selected group of European cities.
>
>
> Fri, Nov 20 | 8.30 PM
> Every Time I See Your Picture I Cry
> Awarded the 2008 Images Prize at its premiere, Daniel Barrow's
> newest "manual animation" combines overhead projection with video,
> music, and live narration to tell the story of a garbage man with a
> vision to create an independent phone book chronicling the lives of
> each person in his city.
>
>
> Fri, Nov 20 | 10 PM
> Never Satisfied
> A program of international sex and subversion, and a swift kick in
> the pants to conformity. This red-hot lineup includes a transgender
> homage to Peter Berlin and to psychedelic sapphistry.
>
>
> Fri, Nov 20 | 12 MID
> Misanthropic Mania
> These defiant, dysfunctional, deviant heroes show unapologetic
> displays of camp, gender anarchy, bodily fluids and boundary
> bashing. It's a tsunami of expression, releasing frustration against
> the co-optation of queer, crashing down the walls of static
> identities. Catch Gary Fembot’s sci-fi imagining of AIDS activism
> and Nica Ross’s queeruptive take on The Wizard of Oz.
>
>
> Sat, Nov 21 | 6 PM
> Mirrors, Smoke and Glass
> Through lenses and glass, distorted in mirrors, in retrospect and in
> spectacle, fragmented, pieced together and embedded in their
> surrounding environments, the artists in this program render
> reflections of themselves or paint a portrait of other artists.
>
>
> Sat, Nov 21 | 8 PM
> Bigger Than Life
> Join author Jeffrey Escoffier and his guests Wakefield Poole (Boys
> in the Sand), Joe Gage (Kansas City Trucking Co.), Owen Hawk, and
> others, for this talk and clip show about the intesection of gay
> porn and experimental film. ASL interpreted.
>
>
> Sat, Nov 21 | 10 PM
> Creepy Dirty Girlie
> Creepy Dirty Girlie includes both direct and indirect examinations
> of dark and queer aspects of women's sexuality not often seen in our
> commodity-driven media. We see desires that are unresolved, elude a
> single meaning, and extract pleasure where it has often been denied.
>
>
> Sun, Nov 22 | 4 PM
> A Different Take
> Lights, sound, camera, action! Welcome to MIX NYC's fourth year of
> "A Different Take," a video production workshop for LGBTQ youth and
> young adults. This year, participants were paired up with college
> filmmakers who mentored students through their production process.
> Free admission for youth age 23 and under
>
>
> Sun, Nov 22 | 6 PM
> Do It To It
> This program highlights works that actively demonstrate, reflect,
> and interpret the hard work that people do; these works have varying
> relationships with local and global communities and with activist
> and artistic projects, including Zavé Martohardjono’s doc about
> Transy House in Brooklyn.
>
>
> Sun, Nov 22 | 8 PM
> Closing Night: Maggots & Men
> Seeing Cary Cronenwett's Maggots and Men, you have nothing to lose
> but your perceptions of gender. This utopian re-visioning of the
> Kronstadt Uprising of 1921, featuring film history's first cast of
> over 100 transgender actors, paints an idyllic portrait of formerly
> pro-Soviet sailors at the Kronstadt naval garrison who rebelled
> against the perceived failures of the new Bolshevik state.
>
> Installations
>
> Once again, the MIX Factory will transform itself from the inside
> out, and in the process present a number of engaging, if not
> provocative, site-specific installation and performance pieces.
> Enrich your MIX experience before and after screenings by taking in
> these exhibitions and experimentations in multi-media.
>
> Curated by Installations Coordinator Dominic Cloutier, with works by
