Automat 2025
Some of the most rewarding and memorable experiences at Antimatter are artist talks, Q&As and informal social events with local and visiting filmmakers. Since 2020, Automat has offered an additional, virtual option for participants to engage with peers and audiences.
This year Automat will offer a bumper crop of works—gifts from the extraordinary artists we are fortunate to include in this year’s festival. These short self-portrait/profile videos join dozens already available, providing spontaneous, revealing, witty and poetic insights into their lives and practices.
At Antimatter we consider that community is a process—active vs. static, created vs. proscribed. We are incredibly grateful for these connective offerings from the world of moving image art and to the individuals who made and shared them with us. May they illuminate and inspire.
