Public Programming:
Los Angeles Is Endless Like a Scroll
Saturday, July 27
Doors at 8pm; screening 8:30–9pm
WUHO, 6518 Hollywood Blvd.
A kaleidoscopic meditation upon the city in motion, Los Angeles Is Endless Like a Scroll explores the infinite cities of L.A., from the incidental backdrop city found in early Hollywood productions, MTV-era music videos, and classic skateboarding tapes to the virtual city of social media and video sharing sites.

A remixing of the 1951 radio play adaptation of Ray Bradbury’s “The Pedestrian” forms the sonic backbone for our travels.
Visuals recorded, collected, and mixed by the Spatial Awareness Network with Roundhouse Platform
