How cool does this sound? Beginning on January 1st, Jonas Mekas will post one short film a day for a year. According to Wikipedia, Mekas “is a Lithuanian filmmaker, writer, and curator who has often been called ‘the godfather of American avant-garde cinema.’ He was the founder of the Anthology Film Archives, The Film Makers Cooperative and Film Culture magazine. Mekas has written film reviews for the Village Voice since 1958. He was heavily involved with artists such as Andy Warhol, Nico, Allen Ginsberg, Yoko Ono, John Lennon, Salvador Dalí, and fellow Lithuanian George Maciunas.” For more info, check out this report from NPR.
