  1. aemi & Docs Ireland present: Desire Lines + Q&A with Chloe Brenan, Eóin Heaney & Olivia Normile

    Queen's Film Theatre, Belfast, Wednesday, June 17 at 06:00 PM GMT+1

    aemi is thrilled to partner once again with Docs Ireland in Belfast to present a special screening of our 2026 touring programme 'Desire Lines' followed by a Q&A with featured filmmakers led by Rose Baker, Head of Programming at Belfast International Film Festival.

    aemi & Docs Ireland present: Desire Lines

    aemi is delighted to present ‘Desire Lines‘ at the eighth edition of the very brilliant Docs Ireland. This year’s edition of the aemi touring programme brings together a variety of innovative approaches to the documentary form from contemporary Irish and international filmmakers. 

    Featuring films by Chloe Brenan, Collectif Faire Part, Eóin Heaney, Olivia Normile and Basma al-Sharif, the programme is touring to Irish and international venues across 2026.

    ‘Desire Lines’ is a term from the field of landscape architecture used, as Sara Ahmed writes in Queer Phenomenology (2006) to ‘describe unofficial paths, those marks left on the ground that show everyday comings and goings, where people deviate from the paths they are supposed to follow.’ Taken as a whole, the films featured in ‘Desire Lines’ offer up a picture of imposed and chosen deviation, a picture that takes in experiences of isolation and displacement alongside those of collective resistance and revelation, taking care to capture the fleeting moments where these possibilities can briefly intersect.

    This screening will be followed by a Q&A led by Rose Baker, Head of Programming at Belfast International Film Festival with featured filmmakers Chloe Brenan, Eóin Heaney and Olivia Normile.

  3. Queenstown, New Zealand.
    A personal project on:
    #DesireLines #DesirePaths #psychogeography #walking
    Brave souls take the right to join the mayhem of our busiest roundabout, and more direct route into town. Left is the formed path to the bus hub and (relative) safety of pedestrian islands.

    This one now almost looking like a formed path, cuts straight across the Events Centre entrance. Cyclist about to hit it. Given its not formed you have to contend with a gutter... spyderooth.vercel.app//quick-p

  4. If you put an artificial obstacle in, people will compensate. #DesireLines

  5. Stray thought: I wonder what #Guitars would look like if a broad dataset of #DesireLines were mapped — that is, #HeatMaps of where/how different guitarist play balanced against the ergonomic stuff like balance/weight distribution, intonation and some aesthetics.

    I bet the cutaways around the neck would be bigger, some fret flaring (slight angling) and the pickups would be in different places than evenly spaced.
