Loop the loop is a series of events giving you the chance to explore your local library through film, installation, music and performance. This is a project between artist/filmmaker JoannaMayes and Cornwall Libraries, working with a number of South West artists and the Bodmin community, including Bodmin College. At Bodmin, the event is inspired by the railways and travelling in Cornwall, especially the Bodmin and Wenford Railway.
Programme of Events
Joanna Mayes
Date: Wed 25 / Fri 27 / Sat 28 March
Time: Wed/Fri: 10.00am – 4.30pm Sat: 10.00am – 1.00pm
Cost: FREE
Artist/filmmaker Joanna Mayes has been researching local heritage sites as part of Loop the Loop. In Bodmin, Joanna has focused on the development of local trains, especially the Bodmin and Wenford Railway. Using standard 8 and 16mm film taken on Bolex cameras, Joanna will be hand processing footage at the library using instant coffee, washing soda, vitamin C and salt (Caffenol). Throughout the event, Joanna will also share a selection of 78rpm records on a wind-up gramophone, as inspiration for her film’s soundtrack. If you are interested in eco-processing of moving image or stills, or getting a glimpse into the world of the contemporary artist/filmmaker come in and chat to Joanna about her work. There will also be recipe sheets and tips on how to turn your kitchen into an eco-processing centre with no nasty chemicals.
