why some people be mad at me sometimes will be screening in New York on August 5th for VIDEO CLUB’S Hearing the Lights Elsewhere, Part II,at @the_living_gallery 🫧 A program about music, sound, and music video culture Curated by Belén Mallol & Lily Petiot. Here is a blurb about the screening “｡We love music and for us, sound is not subordinate to the image ♪ ₊˚♬ .These videos approach the moving image through its sonic materiality, where rhythm and music function as fundamental architectures of meaning rather than mere accompaniment. As Abigail Child argues, “sound creates a temporal architecture that image alone cannot achieve” (2005). We challenge the visual hierarchy embedded in film and video, foregrounding listening as a primary mode of encounter. We encourage as well to listen to sounds from other sides of the world, other cities, other countrysides, sounds that sometimes are forgotten or hidden under nature or the internet, sounds from precarities or sounds and images that we don’t usually see. An experiment, as Tina Crampton says, to listen to images, but in this case videos. “ If you are in the Brooklyn area please check it out!

why some people be mad at me sometimes is featured in the exhibition titled Laas / Absan / Peldía: Caribbean Cinema Cultures at the Michigan State University Broad Art Museum.The exhibitionhas been curated by curated by Dalina A. Perdomo Álvarez, assistant curator; Pedro Noel Doreste Rodríguez, assistant professor of film studies at MSU; and Diaspora Solidarities Lab fellows Zoe Butler, KV Bailey, Luis Prieto, and Nehemías Toro Padrón.

A little blurb about the show

“The artists featured in Laas / Absan / Peldía: Caribbean Cinema Cultures have engaged with this inherent sense of loss and mourning. The exhibition’s title Laas / Absan / Peldía refers to the notion of loss or absence, stylized in Jamaican Patwah/Guyanese Creole, Haitian Kreyòl, and dialects of the Hispanic Caribbean. The exhibition flows through Caribbean cinema cultures as shared, though distinct, experiences.”

This will be the first time the film is showing in Michigan and alongside artists I admire! Thank you to the curators and my distributor VTape for always matching my film with such beautiful, critical and thoughtful curation. The exhibition opens August 22nd and is on until Jan 30th 2027! If you’re in the Michigan area definitely check out the show
