SCREENING : SCRATCH PROJECTION
Scratch Projection is a powerful tool for Light Cone and the promotion of experimental cinema. This screening structure for experimental film, with its regular Parisian screenings, encourages the exploration of the film history and a visibility for the work of contemporary artists,. Scratch Projection has always been nomadic in Paris, which has encouraged the meeting and mixing of different audiences. Over the years, Scratch Projection has screened at the Entrepôt, in the auditorium of the rue d'Ulm, Audiopradif, the Café de la Danse, the Centre Wallonie Bruxelles and more recently, at the Voûtes, the Centre Georges Pompidou, Confluences and the cinema 'Action Christine'.
The board of directors of Light Cone following Yann BEAUVAIS and Miles MCKANE and, between Sept. 2003 and June 2007 Marc Bembekoff and Christophe Bichon, has taken responsibility for organising programs, offering monographic, thematic or carte blanche screenings, as well as evenings devoted to expanded cinema. Scratch has become a permanent forum for exchange and critical examination of historical and contemporary film practice.
