John and Pip,
 
Thanks for writing back. I unfortunately just got my press credentials last
week, so have been scrambling to confirm my accommodations. I found a cheap
flight, but don't know yet where I'm staying... any (cheap) suggestions?
 
Also, will the screenings be far away from each other? What's the best way
to get around?
 
John - thanks for the links, will check them out now.
Pip - your AOL email address says the mailbox is full.

I'll be at the "Wavelengths" screenings July 8-10. My new film is selected
there.
Quite a few exp filmmakers are invited.
I've never been to this festival, but it's reputation is one of the best.
And Toronto is great, even if Jonas Mekas classes it among his four most
boring cities in the world.
There is an unusual range of good food there, and an active art and film
scene year-round.
Many experimental filmmakers live and work there, many FrameWorkers too.
And the downtown area is home to several major Michael Snow installations.
Be in touch off list or just meet in the wavelengths room.

a screening room.
