FRIDAY NIGHT AT THE MOVIES - "Shockwaves- 9/11 Revisited" - An award
winning video feature by Alex Harsley. The video evolved out of a
story about the beginning of time entitled "The First Light". The
videographer's interpretation is represented by 2 Japanese dancers who
perform at the East River and Hunter Mountain, in the role of dark
matter and dark energy. It is infused with events years before and
after 9/11. The morning of 9/11 is a central point of this video. It
involves the setting up of a tv outside the 4th Street Photo Gallery
with chairs, by a notable installation artist, David Hammonds. This
installation was recorded, as well as live feeds, from WCBS and WNYC,
the two remaining channels that continued broadcasting. Some events of
that morning that were broadcast are integrated with repercussions of
effects suffered after 9/11. The Following artists appear in this
video, including, but not limited to: David Hammonds, Robert Frank,
Rod Rodgers, Willie Burch, John Ferris.  Friday the 7th from 7-9pm
