"LOST FILM FEST" is a world traveling cutting-edge live multimedia performance in which VJ Scott Beibin inspires discussion by exploring the historical intersection of ideology, anthropology, social movements, and current events through a cross-disciplinary and sometimes satirical 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 travels the planet with a laptop and video projector, deftly weaving together a fast paced series of short pieces created by the who’s who of contemporary filmmakers, vj's, and independent journalists. The result is a lush and immersive showcase that connects audiences with a pantheon of both influential and obscure auteurs. Curated materials are collaboratively sourced from a vast international network of media influencers including legendary hoaxers The Yes Men, author Naomi Klein, Academy Award nominated director Sam Green, hip hop legends Dead Prez, TV Sheriff, 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

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 high-energy presentation format that successfully introduces people to complex issues bridging the gap between art, academia, activism, and popular culture. 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. Through the Lost Film Fest, Beibin empowers his audiences to realize the power of their own voice in a postmodern world.
