MANGANESE VENICE

My short film "Manganese Venice," with music by @Brian Eno​ and Roger Eno

It's a portrait of Venice now, moving from the human carnival to a canvas of nature. A place of festivity, wildness, contrasts of pain and pleasure, of youth and age, and the ocean always knocking at our door. One day it will come in. As a lifelong fan of all things Eno, I'm honored to have made this.

​ @The Music Center and @dublab have selected 71 films as top submissions from A Quiet Scene: L.A. film project! "Best" and "Official" film selections will be exhibited on the LED screens on Jerry Moss Plaza at @The Music Center in a public installation from March 20, 2021 - April 18, 2021.

A Quiet Scene: L.A. is a free film project and screening initiative that asked the public to create an original short film that is an authentic reflection of Los Angeles during current times, using a track from Roger and @Brian Eno 's Luminous EP as the score. A Quiet Scene: L.A. provides a Los Angeles perspective to the highly successful 2020 public audio-visual project—A Quiet Scene—created by @Deutsche Grammophon - DG and the Eno brothers in 2020 in support of their Mixing Colours album; this program featured short scenes shot by people from their newly found confined spaces at home in the first wave of the global pandemic. The competition/screening project is presented by @The Music Center LA performing arts center, and @dublab , a community supported radio station based on Los Angeles, and in collaboration with @Deutsche Grammophon - DG . @stashslionski www.stashslionski.com
