TEXAS EXPERIMENTAL FILMMAKERS/AFS

Last night we headed on up to Austin Studios to catch Caroline Koebel, New Yorker transplant, who organized a group of experimental filmmakers for this event.  And we were thoroughly engaged and captivated by their visions, their creativity and passion for making film out of the box.  While every film did not speak to me some moved me to no end.  The best part of the evening was being with artists who view the world through their own unique lens.  Think about this:  one of the filmmakers worked temporarily in a hotel and looks at the carpets on each floor and is drawn to their image, their patterns.  Can you imagine?  I would have just walked on them and not noticed!  We are made so much better by creative people who interpret the world through their own unique vision.  When I told this to Abe,  and mentioned  how fortunate we are to have Beethoven, Mozart, Cezanne......, he said "and Liz Moskowitz."  Yes, and "Liz Moskowitz."
