LOST FILM FEST [ lostfilmfest.com ] is a world traveling cutting edge live multimedia performance hosted by VJ Scott Beibin. The program inspires discussion by exploring the historical intersections of ideology, anthropology, social movements, and current events through a cross-disciplinary lens. Topics emphasized are multiculturalism, environmentalism and green/sustainable technologies, conflict resolution, gender, economics, and the new global frontiers of participatory media.

"At the Lost Film Fest [...] viewers are treated to the visual equivalent of a House DJ spinning records - Wired Magazine"

Taking on a role that is equal parts curator, storyteller, and emcee, Scott Beibin deftly weaves together a fast paced series of short pieces created by a who's who of contemporary filmmakers, vj's, and independent journalists. The result is a lush and immersive showcase that connects audiences with an international pantheon of influential and obscure auteurs. Beibin has collaborated and sourced materials from a vast network of journalists, artists and auteurs including The Yes Men, Naomi Klein, Big Noise Films, Justin Pearson (The Locust), Academy Award nominated director Sam Green, hip hop legend M-1 of Dead Prez, TV Sheriff, Gogol Bordello, and a cast of many more.

"Nothing symbolises the form of low-budget, guerrilla film-making and distribution better, perhaps, than the Lost film festival - Guardian UK"

The program travels the planet and explores the rapidly shifting political and cultural landscape of new a society in which information knows no borders and mediamaking tools are ubiquitous. Lost Film Fest is a testament to the importance of free media in a democracy. Using Creative Commons licensed and open source materials, Beibin has crafted an accessible new presentation format that successfully introduces people to complex issues bridging the gap between academia and popular culture through live ad-libbing and vj'ing. Through the Lost Film Fest, Beibin empowers his audiences to realize the power of their own voice in a postmodern world.
