Airtime presented legendary pioneer Jeff Mills’ Cinemix of Metropolis : live score performance for the 2010 restoration of Fritz Lang’s Metropolis (1927)

I had an out of body experience watching it and watching people watch it. The kid version of me was impressed. It took almost a year behind the scenes organizing.

Thank you to Roulette for trusting me with the space. @rodanada who introduced me to them. @naomi__asa and @kimalajuwon I could have not been able to do it on the day without them. Courtney @rockawayfilmfest for coming to test the screen with me.

My merch ladies @waxse @laila_qad @melenalip . More on merch later. @elijahmaura printed it! 

Thank you to friends who took time to help w my random questions: MY MOM, @_mic4 @melenalip @jill_earth @arthouseathome @jsc.001 @keenan.png @dimension______tide and more

𝗙𝗥𝗜, 𝗠𝗔𝗬 𝟭 — 𝟳:𝟯𝟬𝗣𝗠 
𝗣𝗢𝗥𝗧𝗔𝗟𝗦 𝗜𝗡 𝗕𝗘𝗧𝗪𝗘𝗘𝗡

Tomorrow! We’re pairing 𝗔𝘀𝗹ı 𝗕𝗮𝘆𝗸𝗮𝗹’𝘀 [ @aslikasli ] 𝘋𝘈𝘙𝘒𝘙𝘖𝘖𝘔 and 𝗞𝗶𝗺 𝗧𝗼𝗿𝗿𝗲𝘀’ [ @kim__torrent ] 𝘚𝘖𝘓𝘖 𝘓𝘈 𝘓𝘜𝘕𝘈 𝘊𝘖𝘔𝘗𝘙𝘌𝘕𝘋𝘌𝘙Á for a lyrical evening exploring time, memory, and the concept of home. Moving through everyday landscapes — from coastal towns and cornfields to red-lit darkrooms — these films open intimate archives in the making, inviting viewers into processes shaped by collaboration and speculative world-building.

We’re also thrilled to add three short films to this lineup selected from our open call:
— 𝘋𝘈𝘐𝘓𝘠 𝘞𝘖𝘙𝘒𝘌𝘙 by 𝗧𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝘂 [ @tingsu_u ]
— 𝘕𝘖𝘞 𝘛𝘏𝘈𝘛 𝘞𝘌 𝘈𝘙𝘌 𝘚𝘌𝘕𝘋𝘐𝘕𝘎 𝘠𝘖𝘜 𝘛𝘖 𝘛𝘏𝘌 𝘌𝘕𝘋 by 𝗕𝗹𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗞𝗻𝗲𝗰𝗵𝘁 [ @blakekne ]
— 𝘓𝘐𝘝𝘌 𝘍𝘙𝘖𝘔 𝘛𝘏𝘌 𝘊𝘓𝘖𝘜𝘋𝘚 by 𝗠𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗶𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗻 [ @mackiemallison ]

This program began with Aslı and Kim’s films, which bring us into worlds shaped as much by imagination as by lived reality, unfolding in ways that feel collaborative, process-driven, and alive. In that same spirit, we wanted the evening to remain open and responsive, treating these works as part of an evolving dialogue. The open call invited films that resonate with these themes: portraits of home that construct alternate realities, reimagining time and memory. We were blown away by the range of submissions! A huge thanks to everyone who submitted thoughtful, inventive, and deeply felt works from across contexts. After a painstaking deliberation with Aslı and Kim, we’re so excited to share these three additions with you!

Organized with @airtime.world and @speciwomen’s @at.magnet Residency, this evening foregrounds porous boundaries between maker and audience, and celebrates imagination as a form of resilience. A conversation with filmmakers will follow.

METROPOLIS + JEFF MILLS LIVE
A CINEMIX EXPERIENCE

🎬🎶 APRIL 16th, THURSDAY at 8 PM 
📍ROULETTE (509 Atlantic Ave,BK)

Roulette, Airtime, and Axis Records present a Cinemix event: a projection of Fritz Lang’s 1927 dystopian film Metropolis accompanied by an original soundtrack composed and performed live by legendary techno pioneer Jeff Mills (@jeff_mills_official ) 

Fritz Lang’s 1927 dystopian masterpiece Metropolis envisions a futuristic megacity divided between an oppressed labor force below and a decadent elite above- an uneasy order that begins to fracture when a robot incites the workers to revolt. Jeff Mills began reworking the film’s score in 2000, foregrounding its enduring themes of collective unity.

Please find the tickets in the link in bio and come by!
