Celluloid Series #1 ?>

Celluloid Series #1

Features 5 short films rented from the illustrious and irrepressible Filmmaker’s Coop. Remembrance of a Portrait Study is a haunting portrait of the filmmaker’s mother. The Floor of the World explores the ephemera of yesteryear and invites uncanny, dreamlike associations. Stranger Baby explores the word ‘alien’ with all its xenophobic baggage, and Harbour City takes us to the vibrant colorful world of Hong Kong streets. American Hunger travels from Philadelphia to the slave forts of Ghana to explore collective memory. Thanks to the Arts and Sciences Deans Faculty Challenge Grant.

A JOURNAL OF THE PLAGUE YEAR: AN ARCHIVE OF COVID19

Call for Submissions
Journal of the Plague Year: An Archive of CoVid19

The Visual Arts Program has initiated a partnership between Fordham University and Arizona State University (as well as other schools across the country) to contribute to a remarkable public archive of materials related to how the CoVid19 pandemic is affecting our lives on a local level. You can submit images, text, videos, tweets, Facebook posts, Instagram or Snapchat memes, screenshots of the news, emails — anything that speaks to the moment. Here is a link to a fuller description of the project. Here is a link to the archive’s submissions page.

In the “Your name, as the contributor” field, add Fordham University after your name. This will allow us to search for your submission on the back end of the website and publish it more quickly. At some point in the not-too-distant future, there will be a Fordham Featured Collection that contains all Fordham submissions in one place.

In the “Description” field, add #FordhamUniversity.

Important: At the end of the form, check “Publish my contribution on the web.” If you don’t check this box, your submission will remain private and not appear on the website.

To see what other Fordham students have submitted so far, search “Fordham University” in the search bar at the top of the home page. Please contact Artist in Residence Casey Ruble at caseyruble@gmail.com if you have any questions or need help making your submission.
