June 24–September 23, 2018
Join us at 2426 for Public Programming, a summer-long experimental film series with monthly screenings of some of the public domain's film, radio, and literary material—some reused, some reprogrammed.
Initiated by Noémie Despland-Lichtert (Roundhouse) and Brendan Shea (2426), Public Programming is dedicated to supporting work in the creative commons by contemporary architects and artists. The series aims to investigate changes in the commons of the urban and cultural sphere and facilitate public engagement with works of critical and creative archival research. One artist or architect will join the series for each screening, providing perspective, context, and historical material alongside recent work.
