SUMMARY:Sylvia Wynter's The Big Pride\, (1961.) Film screening by LAND x HRLA
DESCRIPTION:Mrs.Dowling (Nadia Cattouse) and Mallboy Dowling (Johnny Sekka) in The Big Pride\, (1961.) \nHuman Resources Los Angeles in partnership with LAND (Los Angeles Nomadic Division) presents a screening of The Big Pride (1961) the film adaptation of Sylvia Wynter’s play of the concurrent name. \n“Scripted by Guyanese writers Jan Carew and Sylvia Wynter\, The Big Pride is a powerful drama about the quest for freedom. Classically-trained American actor William Marshall and Senegalese-born Johnny Sekka play convicts\, desperate to escape not just the physical bars of the prison cell but also an iniquitous social order that relegates them from birth to the bottom of the heap. However the critique by Dolly Green\, in a virtuoso performance by Trinidadian actor Barbara Assoon\, exposes a third confinement\, ultimately the most devastating of all\, the imprisonment of the mind by bitterness and hatred. In the end for Sutlej and Smallboy Dowling there is no fantasy future. There is only death and surrender.” — British Film Institute \nThe film screening is a part of LAND and LACA’s (Los Angeles Contemporary Archive) course on the work of Sylvia Wynter facilitated by manuel arturo abreu. \nSpecial thanks to Blue for making the film screening possible. \nFor free tickets please RSVP to our Eventbrite here.  \nDoors open at 7:00pm with the film starting promptly at 7:30pm.  \nThe screening will be followed by Q&A between manuel arturo abreu and LAND’s Associate Curator Hugo Cervantes. \nVaccination card is required for entry and attendants are required to wear a mask at all times inside the gallery. \nPlease note this film screening has limited capacity. Be sure to arrive early to ensure entry. \n

Students/academics who are not artists and who appreciate an artist-centered context are welcome to join. This seminar will be hosted by HRLA member & UC Riverside professor Jennifer Doyle. We will hold three meetings\, 11am Saturday Feb 12\, 26 and March 12th. To register for this seminar and gain access to our readings\, please fill out this form.   \nThis class grows out a project which began as Marxism for Artists.

SUMMARY:Mascota a film by Nico Garcini & Misael José Oquendo
DESCRIPTION:Human Resources-Los Angeles presents Mascota an experimental film by Nico Garcini and Misael José Oquendo. \nSaturday\, February 19th  \nDoors: 7pm  \nFilm to begin promptly at 7:30pm  \nVaccination card is required for entry and attendants are required to wear a mask at all times inside the gallery. \nPlease note this film screening has limited capacity. Be sure to arrive early to ensure entry. Please RSVP here.  \nThe story of MASCOTA follows a lost pilgrim (PEREGRINA) who finds themselves furloughed in a town full of live action role players. In need of a square meal\, the Pilgrim meets and follows a vagrant LARPer\, RATBOY\, who is fervently obsessed with an entity called the Floon. The townsfolk are not only all participating in a town wide LARP campaign\, but they all appear to be compulsively partaking in a town lottery. The pilgrim comes to find that each individual’s lottery ticket is what allows them to participate in the town’s activities. Without a ticket\, one is ostracized from all establishments and events\, and like Ratboy\, becomes a Mascota\, and townsfolk then consider them to be a subaltern citizen. Mascotas present as half human/half animal figures\, as they have chosen a path whereby they no longer see the difference between their in-game role-play and their out-of-game persona. These mascotas all live together in a ‘monster camp\,’ a harmonious socialist community just outside of town. Here they worship the ways of the Floon\, a deity whose name has its origin in a LARP term that signifies the feeling of exaltation one gets from participating in a campaign. Our protagonist\, after becoming familiar with this shunned community\, begins to notice certain inherent disparities between these two societies. Noticing a sense of superiority among the townsfolk\, the Pilgrim becomes increasingly worried that the ticket holders and the ticketless will inevitably be brought to conflict. \nMASCOTA is an animated experimental fantasy film created through the use of keyframing\, image plating and motion capture A.I. software. MASCOTA’s story and aesthetic draws from a myriad of sources: Live Action Role Playing\, an interactive role-playing game wherein the participants portray characters through physical action and fashion. This heavily inspired the premise of the film wherein every character in the film aside from the protagonist is a ‘LARPer’ engaged in a fantasy campaign. Through the use of animation\, the film is free to explore and engage anachronistically with any setting\, mythology\, fashion and style. The dialogue of the feature merges LARPing terminology and antiquated speech as a diachronic experiment in\nform. Concerning the etymology of MASCOTA\, look to the 19th century French\, mascotte\, meaning a pet or lucky charm\, a concept by which the feature’s auteurs gather certain thematic symbols. The film’s satirical and abstracted reenactment of the christ myth is told through the haze of unrequited love and its heavily tragic consequences. \nNico Garcini  is a Cuban writer\, filmmaker\, musician and visual artist currently based in Tucson\, AZ. He graduated with a BFA in film from Bard College in Annandale-on-Hudson\, NY\, where he studied under Peter Hutton. \nMisael José Oquendo is a Puerto Rican video artist\, curator and writer based in Los Angeles. He recently graduated from the Aesthetics & Politics (2020\, MA) program at the California Institute of the Arts. He also studied film and visual critical studies at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago where he graduated with a BFA in 2016. His videos have been exhibited at the Gene Siskel Film Center in Chicago and most recently at the LA Contemporary Archive in Los Angeles.

SUMMARY:Cube - Pure Shit - Prosperity
DESCRIPTION:Cube is the electronic music project of NY-based artist Adam Keith.  Live\, Cube conjures a whirlwind of strobing light and video to hypnotic effect.  Searing textures and violent rhythms give way to moments of hushed\, eerie beauty.  Musically\, the project touches on industrial\, dub\, drum & bass\, noise\, and more\, but does so with a distinctly personal\, infectious touch – the spirit of a songwriter lurks somewhere underneath. \nKeith also publishes the art & culture magazine Baited Area. \n“Keith’s vocals rattle around the majority of the tracks\, grounding them in some kind of snarling NYC 1982 attitude that’s hard to ignore. But the productions themselves dance around genres with complete freedom\, occasionally sounding like Suicide\, occasionally like Foodman\, occasionally like The Prodigy and occasionally like HTRK… This is jagged\, jolting DIY music that succeeds because it takes bold risks.” – Boomkat \nSeismic drum machine parts partition an album that layers industrial-tipped takes on \ndigi-dub with roaming guitar lines\, piano vignettes\, and breakbeat theatrics.” – Alter \n  \nPure Shit is a punk band based in and around Los Angeles\, but biographies are not important. Revelations and regeneration is what Pure Shit is all about. \n  \nProsperity \nWhich word\, would you use\, \nto describe her defiant grin? \nA look that says: \nthat demon\, \nthat man\, \nwill never steal our joy. \nAnd for us.. \na smile back.. \na long ride home.. \neveryone; a different war. \nUntil a star aligns \nacross our line in the sand\, \ndisappearing in the wind; \nto be drawn again and again. \nAn impression\, \nforever forward\, \nholding our same place. \nProsperity is a project by Michael DeMaio beginning July 2020 in Los Angeles\, California. \n
