Therefore I Live Part 5

The Universal Truths: Home Movies as History

Therefore I Live finishes on October 30 with Alan Berliner's masterpiece The Family Album. For this film, Berliner collected many hours of discarded or sold home movies from the 1920s to the 1940s, along the way finding many striking images of family life. Over the course of three years he carefully edited these images together. Then he added a soundtrack consisting of oral histories and old family audiotapes of reminiscences.

The resulting film is a justly acclaimed tour de force of editing, and a moving document of the universal truths of family life - truths revealed by amateur filmmakers and forgotten films never meant to be seen outside the family.

The Family Album is preceded by images from the Atkinson/Dick film collection - vacation and family films taken in the 1920s by an Atlanta businessman and later deposited in the Atlanta History Center.


Atkinson/Dick film collection (excerpt) (1920s), 16mm, black & white, silent, 3 minutes (screened on VHS) courtesy the Atlanta History Center
Marjorie Keller, She/Va (1973), 16mm, color, silent, 3 minutes

Miscellany

October’s Podcast is now available and this month we devoted lots of time to a revisiting of the Atlanta underground/indie scene of the early/mid 1980s, with previously unreleased recordings by 86, Pillowtexans, Vietnam and Amalgamated Cliff Divers; there's a show at Eyedrum on Oct. 7th that has lots of people from these bands performing for the first time in many years. After the retro fix, we played a few songs by Tunnels, Acid Mothers Temple and Hubcap City, all recorded live at Eyedrum in the past month. We closed with Tuna Helpers (performing Oct. 11th) and a short piece by avant garde luminary Jack Smith.
If you don’t know what all the podcast fuss is about, a podcast is simply an audio file that you can listen to on your computer or portable mp3 player.
