Sex Galaxy WORLD PREMIERE USA / 2008 / 78 mins / dir. MIKE DAVIS One hundred years in the future… Due to overpopulation and the effects of global warming, sex has been declared illegal on Earth. When a crew of astronauts hear of a distant planet inhabited by insatiable female creatures who exist only to satisfy man’s desires, they decide to take a detour from their routine mission in search of the mythical star system known as the Sex Galaxy. Written and directed by Mike Davis, ‘Sex Galaxy’ marks the auteurial debut of the twisted mind behind cult comedy sensation and Russ Meyer’s grindhouse horror homage ‘Pervert!’ starring Mary Carey.

Eisenstein’s Montage AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE AUS / 2005 / 1:10 mins / dir. ATANAS DJONOV Read aloud, each word in an excerpt from Eisenstein’s Film Sense is matched by the artist with an image found by searching for that word in Google.

Astro Black: A History of Hip Hop (Ep. 1) AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE AUS / 2008 / 6:35 mins / dir. SODA_JERK A lesson in the intergalactic origins of hip-hop turntablism, this narrative remix video is composed entirely of samples from existing film and music sources. Set in the Bronx in the mid 70s, this video remix kicks off with the alien abduction of three pioneers of the hip-hop ‘old skool’: DJ Kool Herc, Grandmaster Flash and Afrika Baambattaa. Once on board the Mothership with Sun Ra and George Clinton, the three DJs are transported to Planet Rock where they are skilled in a secret alien technique – the scratch. Armed with this sonic intelligence, they are returned to the Bronx to unleash hip-hop turntablism onto the airwaves of planet Earth.

Alien Christ WORLD PREMIERE AUS / 2006 / 2 mins / dir. TONY LAWRENCE 8mm 50’s burlesque reels, ‘club films’ and 60’s American Mid-West home movies marry with the raw fuzz rock of Alien Christ.
