518    Originally produced by Filmmakers Showcase in 1900. 
520    THE MECHANIZED EYE is part of the film retrospective 
       UNSEEN CINEMA that explores long-forgotten American 
       experimental cinema.. 17 films by featured directors: 
       Frederick Armitage, Artkino, G.W. “Billy” Bitzer, Paul 
       Burnford, Russell Collins, Emlen Etting, Walker Evans, 
       Jerome Hill, Elia Kazan, Elman Koolish, Irving Lerner, 
       Jean Michelson, NYKino, M.G. MacPherson, Henwar 
       Rodakiewicz, Ralph Steiner, Molly Day Thatcher, A.E. Weed,
       James White.. The dynamic qualities of motion pictures are
       featured through novel experiments in technique and form 
       used by early cameramen and filmmakers. Pioneers James 
       White, "Billy" Bitzer, and Frederick Armitage display 
       experimental shooting styles that wowed audiences. Other 
       independent companies further image manipulation through 
       creative staging, editing, and printing, such as a 
       stunning three-screen film that predates Gance's Napoleon.
       Experiments by photographer Walker Evans, painter Emlen 
       Etting, musician Jerome Hill, and the film collectives 
       NYKINO and ARTKINO record the world in a continual process
       of flux. Henwar Rodakiewicz uses a most extreme approach 
       in his silent 16mm autobiography Portrait of a Young Man 
       (1925-31), a monumental study of natural and abstract 
       motions.. Curated by Bruce Posner and produced by David 
       Shepard. “In terms of genre, UNSEEN CINEMA cover a lot 
       more ground than a typical film series, but that decision 
       to cast a wide net is true to the early avant-garde, who 
       were willing to include nearly anything in their 
       definition of cinema.” - The Austin Chronicle. “A 
       treasure trove of rare material from the first decades of 
       cinema.” - Whitney Museum of American Art. Descriptions 
       for all films in this Playlist written by Paul Spehr, 
       Bruce Posner, Scott MacDonald, Kevin Brownlow, Kenneth 
       Weissman, Dan Streible, R. Bruce Elder, Robert A. Haller,
