Film: The Wooden Lightbox - Alex Mackenzie

7:30 p.m.

"the wooden lightbox: a secret art of seeing" is a hand-processed black and white film created partially with some hand-made emulsion, and presented on a hand-cranked 16mm projector which Alex constructed out of cast off pieces of projectors and rewinds and then encased in wood.
