Délire atta
Duration: 5 minutes
Subscription access
_Délire atta_ takes found footage and sound from six archival films and transforms them through a process of abstraction and recontextualization. Image and sound engage in a dialogue of texture and transformation, revealing unexpected resonances within the archive and generating new possibilities from what might otherwise be seen as fixed or obsolete.
Jekyllum
Duration: 5 minutes
Subscription access
Humorously described by its creators as “the first horror film entirely made on a computer”, _Jekyllum_ is a pioneering work of computer animation in Canada.

“Dynamic study of LE cell or Hargraves cell formation (diagnosis of acute systemic lupus erythematosus): action of antinuclear antibodies on neutrophil nuclei, chemotaxis of polynuclei (rosette formation), preferential phagocytosis of antibody-nucleus complex (LE cell formation).” (Description from the libraries of the Université de Montréal)
Phobie d'impulsion
Duration: 24 minutes
Subscription access
Presentation of this variety of obsession characterized by the fear of an idea, an object or even a specific act.

(Description from the libraries of the Université de Montréal)
La stéréochimie dynamique
Duration: 8 minutes
Subscription access
An innovative audiovisual teaching method for chemistry developed at the Université de Montréal by Professor Henri Favre, _La stéréochimie dynamique_ (Dynamic Stereochemistry) was first and foremost a response to a pedagogical problem: how to make students see and understand molecular transformations in space and time, using a blackboard and two-dimensional plans on paper? “Visualizing these ph...
Aux sources de la vie
Duration: 10 minutes
Subscription access
"The nec plus ultra of my work is the chapter entitled _Aux sources de la vie_ (The Sources of Life). [...] Plants are wonderfully organized from the point of view of reproduction. It's a marvel of ingenuity, spectacular to the last point! The secrets of nature lie in the infinitesimally small, in the minutiae of nature." (Father Venance, interview for _Le Samedi_, May 20, 1961)
