DVAN and the International Southeast Asian Film Festival presents “Ways of Seeing: People and Places of Southeast Asia” Multi-screen Projections Presentation & Opening Party.

Discover little known histories and explore different notions of the Southeast Asian experience through moving and still images including family home movies, moving and still images from the French colonial era, Hollywood films, and declassified CIA propaganda. This collection of imagery frames the varied histories of Southeast Asians in a live interactive presentation. What ideologies and values frame these images? Beyond the stereotypes, do these images reflect some semblance of Southeast Asian identity? The event is curated by Ina Adele Ray co-presented by Stephen Gong from Center for Asian American Media Memories to Light (http://caamedia.org/memoriestolight/about/) and Laotian Poet, Bryan Thao Worra (http://thaoworra.blogspot.com.br/). Featuring an edible Southeast Asian installation by Oauter Sand, Southeast Asian Streetfood Pop-up – SUP (http://www.supstreetfood.com/)! And music provided DJ RichiefromTraktivist.com.
