Abstract
A media archaeological experiment performed on March 31st 2014, at the 9th International Orphan Film Symposium, EYE Film Institute Amsterdam. In the performance we reconstruct the changing 'dispositif' of home movie screening practices. In three ‘tableaux’ we explore how past media usages of film, video, and new media have altered the practices of home movie staging. The experiment is based on our research which aims to trace how changing technologies of memory production have shaped new practices and rituals of memory staging (homemoviesproject.wordpress.com).
