It’s Dead Technology Night!

A celebration of media machines of times past! Witness the analog & mechanical sound musings of Igloo Martian, Purity of Essence, Jonathan Ray, Prabjit Virdee, Eric Schlappi , and Wyatt Schaffner each accompanying a mystery 16mm film. EV has provided each musician with merely the title and length of a “non-art” film… come marvel as they respond in real time before your very eyes & ears! The films are drawn from discarded educational and industrials archive at EV and span the gamut of esoteric and practical themes. An event of HEAVY synesthesia not to be missed!!

World-renowned photographer/book editor Eric Kroll presents the fantastically obsessive 1960’s NYC photo archive of “Arthur”, who incessantly made and collected 8mm films and photos of women with long HAIR! Come see EV transformed into a floor to ceiling salon of Arthur’s incredible photographs and collages! Writes Kroll, “Proof of Arthur’s intense obsession for women’s hair is in the hours of 8mm Kodachrome home movies he made of unsuspecting young women milling about Washington Square Park and the beach at Coney Island. Or the hours and hours he spent cutting up and preserving newspaper, magazine and comic images of damsels with long hair or his extensive collection of rare 1950s “Stan’s Photos” of women with hair down to the ground!”

TUCSON ACOUSTIC HOME MOVIE NIGHT

LIVE SOUND // SILENT FILM
SAT. 10/26

Musicians Naim Amor & Chris Black!
In conjunction with National Home Movie Day, Exploded View conjures our own homespun event featuring musicians Naim Amor (guitar) and Chris Black (contrabass) improvising to the unidentified found trove of 1950-1970’s films of Tucson’s Cordova family. This evening will be a celebration of the small gauge amateur wonders common to many families. Perhaps you’ll identify lost friend and relatives…In any case, you’ll see mid-century Tucson like you’ve never seen it before, projected small in 8mm film!
