Derek Jarman

'As she disappears
I toast my ghost
In acqua vite
Luminous presence
Here and gone.'
- Chroma

Not sure if this was visible to all when I posted it earlier. A discussion at MOMA on home movies.

Something I haven't shared much of yet on here is my love for #silentfilm, particularly that I collect and exhibit silent films on 8mm and Super 8mm film!
I usually show my movies at my local library, and hire a pianist to play along with the film. It's a lot of fun. I've shown THE CAT AND THE CANARY, THE MICHIGAN KID, and THE CABINET OF DR CALIGARI in the past, and I'm thinking about showing one of my Harold Lloyd features for the next one...
