Craig Baldwin’s “pseudo-pseudo-documentary” presents a factual chronicle of US intervention in Latin America in the form of the ultimate far-right conspiracy theory\, combining covert action\, environmental catastrophe\, space aliens\, cattle mutilations\, killer bees\, religious prophecy\, doomsday diatribes\, and just about every other crackpot theory broadcast through the dentures of the modern paranoiac. \n\n\n\nTribulation 99 by Craig Baldwin  \n\n\n\n16mm | 1991 | 48 minutes | Color \n\n\n\nA delirious vortex of hard truths\, deadpan irony\, and archival mash-ups—industrials\, graphs\, cartoons\, movies from Hollywood B to Mexican Z—Tribulation 99 constructs a truly perverse vision of American imperialism.  \n\n\n\nPreceded by Stolen Movie  \n\n\n\nDigital file | 1976 | 9 minutes | Color  \n\n\n\nArmed with S8 camera and sound-person (John Corser)\, Baldwin runs both recording devices continously through single-take raids on a series of SF Market St. grindhouse theaters. Rushing past box offices and through front lobbies\, he captures the chance scenes and sounds on screen at the time\, then flees out the rear exit doors to re-unite with the reality of the street.  \n\n\n\n AS A FILMMAKER\, Baldwin’s works represent a radical fusion of form and content. Formally\, his films are constructed largely from audiovisual material appropriated from pre-existing films. In this\, they represent a radical stance toward media culture as a participatory field. As an artist\, Baldwin engages with mainstream media as an adversary\, using its languages in ironic opposition. In this way he talks back to corporately produced media and creates inspiring\, wildly imaginative works which profoundly challenge the nature of one-way media consumption.  \n\n\n\n“… I’m interested in black-comic social critique\, and also in graphic montage\, rhythm\, and acceleration; but above it all\, I’m interested in the mobilization and manipulation and manic play with old and new meanings\, as “found” footage is recontextualized with newly-produced sound and imagery\, documentary testimony and collateral text. This polymorphous collage-essay form represents an effort to create an audio-visual language that has the same metaphoric and punning qualities as spoken language; clusters of signifiers in provisional constructs cobbled together. The flotsam and jetsam of film culture can serve to stage a review of the carnival acts of history.” \n\n\n\nAS A FILM CURATOR\, Baldwin is known for Other Cinema\, an extensive and hugely influential series of film/video programs he has personally organized in San Francisco on a schedule of 36 programs per year since the late 1980s. Like his films\, Baldwin’s Other Cinema represents a radically expanded approach to film exhibition\, media consumption and cultural engagement in which ephemeral forms of film history coexist alongside expanded cinema performance\, underground/experimental film screenings\, speculative lecture presentations\, in-person artists and more.  \n\n\n\nExperimental Tuesdays is a free public series featuring celebrated work of contemporary and historical artist-made film and video. This weekly series presents films and artists that explore the creative and critical potential of moving images. It also amplifies marginalized voices by hosting artists that represent diverse populations\, such as LGBT\, Native American\, Black and Latinx artists. Hosted by the Department of Film\, Video\, Animation & New Genres\, and presented in partnership with 51’s Union Cinema\, this series is a bedrock of the Milwaukee arts landscape. Recent screenings include Silvia das Fadas\, Courtney Stephens\, Simon Liu\, Helena Wittman\, Jessica Bardsley\, Suneil Sanzgiri\, Mary Helena Clark\, Angelo Madsen Minax\, and Rhayne Vermette to name a few.

Imagery of settler-led planetary destruction is juxtaposed with sequences of underground group therapy sessions where settlers can lose\, forget\, and explore their identities in order to indigenize. Sharing their labor\, lurking through museums\, and institutions\, future accomplices snap thousands of cellphone pictures of every artifact and artwork on hand. \nDeploying and containing confrontational representations around the stakes of accompliceship\, the video examines the dynamics influencing the conditions in which the concerns of indigenous people are often treated as a topic du jour and then co-opted by non-indigenous people\, alongside the search for ways to make amends.  \nNew Red Order is a public secret society facilitated by core contributors Adam Khalil\, Zack Khalil\, and Jackson Polys. In our current period of existential and environmental catastrophe\, desires for Indigenous epistemologies increase and enterprising settlers labor to extract this understanding as if it were a natural resource. New Red Order—emerging out of contradistinction from the Improved Order of Red Men\, a secret society that ‘plays Indian’—calls attraction toward indigeneity into question\, yet promotes this desire\, and enjoins potential non-Indigenous accomplices to participate in the co-examination and expansion of Indigenous agency. Working with an interdisciplinary network of informants the NRO co-produces video\, performance\, and installation works that confront settler colonial tendencies and obstacles to Indigenous growth. They have presented their work at Artists Space\, Haus der Kulturen der Welt Berlin\, Kunsthal Charlottenborg\, Kunstverein in Hamburg\, Lincoln Center\, Museum of Modern Art\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, New York Film Festival\, Sundance Film Festival\, Toronto Biennial 2019\, Walker Art Center\, and Whitney Biennial 2019\, among others\, expanding the public secret society network across numerous institutional platforms.  \nMembers of NRO will join via Zoom for a public Q&A after the screening. \n2018 | 50 minutes | United States / Canada | English | Color | Stereo | 16:9 | HD video \n \n\nExperimental Tuesdays is a free public series featuring celebrated work of contemporary and historical artist-made film and video. This weekly series presents films and artists that explore the creative and critical potential of moving images. It also amplifies marginalized voices by hosting artists that represent diverse populations\, such as LGBT\, Native American\, Black and Latinx artists. Hosted by the Department of Film\, Video\, Animation & New Genres\, and presented in partnership with 51’s Union Cinema\, this series is a bedrock of the Milwaukee arts landscape.
