Third Coast Audio Film Festival @ Aurora Picture Show
We're gonna go out on a limb and assume if Stevie Wonder came to Houston, he may not make a trip to the Aurora Picture Show. Alas, if he's in town today or tomorrow, he's in luck. One of our fav microcinemas is shutting off the reel, and turning up the sound as they celebrate the Third Coast Audio Film Festival.
Attention radioheads! Come feast your ears on a variety of
unforgettable documentary films for your ears. That's right - enjoy an evening that's
all about AUDIO, featuring everything from short artistic works to
sound-rich narratives from around the world, from award-winning public
radio programs to highlights from the TCF's "99 Ways to Tell a Radio
Story" experiment.
Besides listening you'll also have the chance to share your thoughts and ask questions about the stories you hear. The evening is curated by TCF managing director Julie Shapiro.
Julie Shapiro is the managing director of the Third Coast International Audio Festival, from Chicago Public Radio. Before moving to Chicago, she worked at the Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University and was assistant director of Transmissions, an annual experimental sound and art festival, from 1998-2001. Shapiro makes audio art for public
presentation and can occasionally be heard on the public radio airwaves. She also keeps a blog about sound(s) at: http://notetheslantoftheovals.blogspot.com.
