CYRUS TABAR + DEAN SANTOMIERI + COX’ VR + SCIENCE IN ACTION +
Comes now the 3rd of our signature Mediashowcases, and the world premiere of Santomieri’s Monuments in Steel and Glass, a spoken-word turn on his tenure as his school’s film-projectionist, in tandem with a 16mm treasure. An educational on urban architecture embedded into his teenage brain the accursed idea of Industrial Progress! Cyrus Tabar is also in the house, presenting It Is What It Is, his award-winning memoir on family secrets, drawn exclusively from snapshots and home movies. David Cox looks not to the past but to the future with Mise-en-Experience, a delightful demonstration of Cardboard’s Virtual Reality, so bring your smart-phones if you dare. PLUS the debut of Adrianne Finelli’s (in person) At the Edge (on the pics between Reg8mm perfs), Kevin Obsatz’ Deux Champs (Two Fields) (on a Duchampphoto “accident’), an Optigan overture, and Sam Green’s celebration of Louis Armstrong’s 1/4” tape recordings! Co-produced with SF Cinematheque, this format fest also launches Baldwin and Polta’s (in person) SiA sound-sampler, bumped to tape by Zap Cassettes! Free 35mm filmstrip to every patron.
