We're honored to be a part of it and we'll be screenings our favorite shorts from the last 7 years! You can see the full schedule and get tix here!!

Here is what's going down this weekend at 941 Theater:

Friday, March 20th - Flauf Productions Presents:
Infinien, Bear Is Driving, Imbala, Complex Complex

iNFiNiEN - (Philly Psychedelic / Fusion / Experimental music) Philadelphia-born iNFiNiEN combines eclectic musical personalities into a visionary, unified force. With rock, jazz, soul, world, and classical influences, the quartet plays intricately composed songs with a focus on improvisation. After playing together for three years, iNFiNiEN has discovered its own voice both live and in the studio. Their diverse influences are portrayed, but the sound produced is unique. iNFiNiEN has been compared to Bjork, Radiohead, Mahavishnu Orchestra, and John Zorn’s Masada.

Bear Is Driving (Philly Progressive / Post punk / Experimental music) - Bear is Driving is just as much a theory as it is a tangible arrangement of artists, instruments, and the resultant sounds of artist-on-instrument interaction. In the abstract, BiD is an existential approach towards the definition of Art. The music is the language with which we convey our current working definition.
