Event Description
CineVic is very pleased to be hosting this special event with Berlin-based OJOBOCA. OJOBOCA will be presenting a selection of films and projector performances that demonstrates the collective’s practice of Horrorism, "a simulated method of inner and outer transformation.”
This is a program of four works, by Anja Dornieden and Juan David Gonzalez Monroyall, all on 16mm. Anja and Juan will show two single screen films with optical sound and two multiple projector performances. For the two performances they will use two modified 16mm projectors using effects pedal and a synth to modify the optical sound tracks.
This will be a very visually stunning evening. Please RSVP to office@cinevic.ca ASAP.

Artists' Statement
On this occasion OJOBOCA offers its introductory film massage. With our purpose-made device our trained film masseuses will help you release your other self. Working directly on the invisible flesh, in four distinct movements, the sickness of light will be revealed. A word of caution: This is a device that does not release pressure. This is a device that does not sooth, that does not relieve pain. This is a device that does not apply gentle massage. This is a device that does not ameliorate noise. This is a device that does not remember. This is a device that does not learn. This is a device that is always beginning, that does not know how to end. This device is like a sentient ocean whose behavior is beyond understanding.
