THINK IIACI! (pronounced ee-ah’-chee)
Advancing the creative practice and study of the global arts across the disciplines.
The chilled air is a delight as the sun rises over the Mediterranean and the yachts begin to dock for the CANNES FILM FESTIVAL ... all quite exciting as the IIACI Institute prepares for its launch party in partnership with the Capstone International Study Abroad Program at the University of Alabama on May 19th at the AMERICAN PAVILION to celebrate the first IIACI ACADEMIC INTERNSHIP PROGRAM and IIACI INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS PROGRAM at Cannes! Twenty-one academic students were selected by the Institute Director, Dr. Janeann Dill, and the Director of the AMPAV Student Program, Walter Harris, to be IIACI ACADEMIC INTERNS when the American Pavilion opens its 22nd year as the hospitality center to the American production companies at Cannes in 2010. Exciting days ahead for IIACI INTERNS!
The IIACI launch event will be held at the American Pavilion and will focus on the Institute of Interdisciplinary Art's ACADEMIC INTERNSHIPS with a program of Dr. Dill's experimental shorts and documentary feature in-progress and films by students she has mentored and guests: Laura Godorecci (Cambridge, M.Phil. candidate in Screen Studies), Anna Brenner (Oxford, M.A. candidate, Aesthetic Studies), and Courtney Marr (entering NYU, Steinhardt School, M.A. Candidate in Arts Administration). Jens Blank (guest presenter from the National Film School, United Kingdom) is showing his film, "Cooked," at the Cinefondation Short Film Competition and will present a brief talk about his work and screen another of his films not in competition. Ryan Davis, IIACI INTERN, debut in a live performance his HipHop song, IIACI MISSION STATEMENT (composed by Davis and published by MississippiBlueMusic, ASCAP).

Dr. Dill's short film of excerpted, rare footage, “Jules Engel: An Artist For All Seasons,” will screen in non-competition at the SHORT FILM CORNER alongside the "Behind the Scenes of Ourselves" short documentary directed by Hallie Carroll. Carroll is an IIACI INTERN and former student who filmed the making of Dr. Dill's experimental film, “MAH: Moving Around Heidegger,“ a collaboration employing a unique sound track of poetry by Dr. Hank Lazer, and another of Dill's students who choreographed to Dill's monumental drawings and arrangement of Lazer’s sound track, Courtney Marr. Marr is presently the IIACI Program Administrative Assistant for the academic internships.
Two more IIACI INTERNS, Alan Lazer and Nick Mahone, both students at the University of Alabama, will screen their student films with the American Pavilion's program at the SHORT FILM CORNER. This will be a memorable inauguration of the IIACI INTERNSHIPS in collaboration with the AMERICAN PAVILION and CAPSTONE INTERNATIONAL STUDY ABROAD at University of Alabama!
