For Cinema Sixteen's latest sight-and-sound godsend, Brooklyn-based musicians Julianna Barwick and Sarah Lipstate each construct a Niagara of cascading, experimental noises. Barwick's music — think slipping-and-sliding vocals that sound miles off, particularly once they're looped into a hypnotic blur — is the perfect, incantatory accompaniment for Joel Schlemowitz's 1734 (a hand-painted curio based on Emily Dickinson's 1734th poem, which opens with the suggestive hook, "Oh, honey of an hour…") and Kenneth Anger's Inauguration of the Pleasure Dome, an occult short whose saturated tones, magick superimpositions, and ceremonial excess just bellow for such an otherworldly sound. Lipstate, meanwhile, takes the stage as Noveller (her solo noise project) to score a suite of her fantastic shorts.
