MEDIA BURN ARCHIVE

On The Real Film teamed up with Media Burn Archive for the inaugural Chicago Archives + Artists Project Festival hosted by Sixty Inches From Center. The result was the short film From Celluloid to the Pixel: Exploring Relationships between Documentation, Technology and Time. This collaborative work includes footage from both the Media Burn video archives and On The Real Film's personal home videos, some originally made on 8mm film. From Celluloid to the Pixel explores the ways that the shift from film reels to video to digital media has influenced documentation from the personal to the political over the last 50 years. The May 2017 premiere at the Chicago Cultural Center included 8mm film projection along with digital projection and a lively post-screening discussion.
