>A rhythmic and glittering master/slave story about international economics<

An excerpt from "Greater Than Less Than: Level 2" (A Petrol-Fueled Neo-Depression Era Musical) is screening tonight, 12/17/08, at Monkey Town in Brooklyn.

The full premier was 12/13/08 at Reversible Eye in Chicago.

The full international premier will be at the New Beijing International Movie Week in March.

The first half-in-progress premiered at our (international | independent | interstitial) festival on 2/29/08. This version of "><" has also screened at Version>08: DARK MATTER, The New Beijing International Movie Festival (subtitled in Chinese), the Short Film Corner Festival de Cannes, and the Huong Tie Art Museum.

A working prototype of Arturo's Hyper-Cinema Camera, which he is developing with VR designer Tong Kim, was used for the first time in this project!

This 'adult edutainment' film is based on a performance piece developed by Sarah Weis with Kathryn Korosi for their performance art group, The Super-Cool Slūūts of America!, early in 2006. The idea was inspired by conversations between Arturo and Sarah about the petro-dollar and the hidden agendas behind the war in the Middle East concerning currency dominance.

Watch the episodes on our Youtube Channel Or download the entire movie (DVD qulaity) in our store right now! A DVD with special features and the official soundtrack will be available soon. Samples from the score are up for listening on Sarah's myspace.

"><: Level 2" is part of the Hyper-Cinema school of filmmaking that i^3 is dedicated to developing. This is only the beginning.
