 "Too Much Freedom?"

Freewaves' 10th Biennial Festival of Film, Video
 and Experimental New Media

 Opens November 3 & 4 at the Hammer Museum
 7:00 - 11:00 p.m. both days
 Free admission


 "Too Much Freedom" unleashes 100 videos in the Hammer Museum's
central courtyard with two phantasmagoric floors of simultaneous video
projections. Cheeky and challenging, maddening and inspiring, come
celebrate and explore artists' interpretations of freedom, and ask
yourself: too much. . . or too little?

 The festival continues at www.freewaves.org with streaming video
coming soon in November, plus FREE events:

 * Video installation at Pomona College Museum of Art, Nov. 5 - Dec.
17 (reception Nov. 5, 5:00 - 7:00 p.m.), featuring two experimental,
impressionistically styled works by Oliver Ressler: "The Fittest
Survive" and "5 Factories: Worker Control in Venezuela."

 * Discussion, screening and reception at LACE, Sat. Nov. 11, 8:00
p.m. on artistic censorship at a time of questionable internet freedom
and political paranoia. Includes local festival artists and curators,
as well as the editor of "Censoring Culture: Contemporary Threats to
Free Expression," Robert Atkins.

 * Screening and speak out at the National Center for the Preservation
of Democracy, Sat. Nov. 18, 2:00 - 4:00 p.m., a collaboration with
Media That Matters, showcasing short films on relevant contemporary
topics by a group of next-generation film and videomakers.
