365 Short Films in 365 Days
For nearly 50 years, Jonas Mekas has lugged his camera around New York, creating short films about himself and his friends. While most of those friends — Andy Warhol, Stan Brakhage, Allen Ginsberg — have departed for that rent-controlled loft in the sky, Mekas continues to create and innovate.
On Jan. 1, a week after his 85th birthday, Mekas launches a yearlong film-a-day series. He’ll post a new poetic short at his his website each afternoon until the end of 2007. The videos are intended to be viewed on portable video players, and each download is free on the first day of release. That Mekas is still on the cutting edge of filmmaking should surprise no one. He’s been called, alternately, the godfather and midwife of the American indie scene.
Mekas launched New York’s first theater dedicated to independent movies, started an influential film theory magazine and became the city’s most famous film diarist, logging tens of thousands of hours of footage of New York’s explosively creative ’60s and ’70s underground. “Shoot all scriptwriters,” he wrote in his popular, long-running Village Voice column, “and we may yet have a rebirth of American cinema.”
