Event Cancelled - I Hate the Internet: Techno-Dystopian Malaise and Visions of Rebellion
SEE EVENT DETAILS
In accordance with a newly issued San Francisco City Health Ordinance which requires the cancellation of events with 50+ people in city-owned buildings due to Covid-19, Cinematheque's March 12 screening I Hate the Internet: Techno-Dystopian Malaise and Visions of Rebellion will regretfully be cancelled. This screening will be rescheduled at a later date. All pre-sold tickets will be refunded by Yerba Buena Center for the Arts.
Zach Blas' Contra-Internet: Jubilee 2033 (2018) audaciously re-imagines scenes from Derek Jarman's 1978 queer punk masterpiece Jubilee, replacing Jarman's vision of a deliriously devastated Britain with one of Silicon Valley in flames. In Blas' take on Jarman's allegory, the acid-tripping trio of Ayn Rand (played by underground icon Susanne Sachsse), Alan Greenspan and painter Joan Mitchell bear witness to the internet's end. This screening also features works by Jesse McLean, Mike Hoolboom, Peter Burr and James Duesing, examining themes of techno-dysphoria that consider the relevance of emotion and subjectivity in an increasingly mediated and chillingly trans-humanist culture.
