TRANSVERSAL
Revelation Perth International Film Festival
7–18 July 2025
MILP curated an 83-minute selection of short films made by artists, photographers, film crew and filmmakers. The program was a conversation between techniques – from stop-motion animation to desktop documentary to AI-generated work. The program looked forward and backward in time through a reinvigoration of traditional techniques and the use of AI to enhance rather than replace the makers’ style.

EXPERIMENTAL SHOWCASE 1
Old Customs House & Ode to Sirens, Fremantle, Western Australia
19 July – 6 August 2024
This curated exhibition explored how video shops served as cultural touchstones for the video artists who frequented them. It presented a collection of video artworks that experimented with culture jamming at the intersections of video shop, film, and art culture. The program featured Jessie Scott’s Video Art Video Store, her game Video Shop Algorithm, which celebrates the cognitive congeniality of the video library, and a screening of her documentary Rainbow Video.

Australian Posthuman Summer Laboratory
The Quarry, Geelong, Australia
19 – 26 February 2024
This program of short films looked at the idea of the posthuman — a way of thinking described by philosopher Rosi Braidotti, which suggests that humans are not at the centre of everything, but are deeply connected with animals, the environment, technology, and each other. The selection of films, which included a range of non-human subjectivities and perspectives, invited audiences to imagine more responsible and interconnected ways of being. By challenging the habit of prioritising humans over other beings and systems, these works encouraged new ways of seeing, hearing, and feeling. Presented at The Quarry, the program deepened reflection on the place we share with other species, systems and scales.
