SUMMARY:Wonders of the Unseen World: A Night of Stag Films on 16mm
DESCRIPTION:21+ \n\n\n\n\nPickle your peter with the Forty Drop Few and Astral Projections\, and come for an evening of old time music and early 1900s stag films projected on 16mm. The film selection\, which comes from the Nyback Archive\, includes some incredibly rare films that can’t be seen in any other way. \n\n\n\nAs a collector of antique smut\, I was thrilled to find out about Ioana and Garrett’s collection of early 1900s stag reels. This event is an absolute DELIGHT for me not only because I’m obsessed with antique porn\, but also because I get to help choose which stag films were showing AND I get to play music for you all while we’re watching them. \n\n\n\nAs soon as photography and videography were invented\, they were used to make pornography. The making and distribution of pornographic materials was completely illegal due to the Comstock Act of 1873 and these obscenity restrictions were not relaxed until 1957. These laws of course did not slow down the production of porn by much\, folks were just careful with their distribution. The films were mostly viewed at brothels and men’s stag parties. The majority of the women who acted and modeled for films and photos were sex workers who were found through brothels.  \n\n\n\nI find antique pornography beautiful\, interesting\, educational\, and a wonderful eye-opening connection between the past and the present. I am always showing it and have given a few presentations on it at PCC. People are too frequently shocked that it can be just a crazy as pornography today. They always say “they were doing that back then???” Of course they were! They were just as intense\, just as freaky\, just as weird\, and also unfortunately just as evil as we are today. \n\n\n\nBut we will only be showing the good stuff! So please join us for an evening of beautiful\, freaky\, weird\, sexy\, shocking old porn from the early 1900s! And also\, wouldn’t it be great for Ioana and Garrett to be able to digitally transfer their entire collection of stag reels so that we can perhaps create an online archive of our very own? Do you have ideas for funding a project like that? Do you want to fund a project like that? If so please hit me up!  \n\n\n\nCandle Sue \n\n\n\n21 + only \, I.D. will be checked at the door for admission.

SUMMARY:Revolutions Per Movie: Urgh! A Music War
DESCRIPTION:The screening will feature a presentation by The Professors Of Urgh!\, Chaki & Chris Slusarenko\, who have amassed over 55 episodes about the wheres\, whys\, and hows of the epic 80s concert film\, Urgh! A Music War\, coming to light. Speaking with guests such as Lesley Woods of Au Pairs\, Hugo Burnham of Gang Of Four\, Stan Ridgway of Wall Of Voodoo & Steve Bartek of Oingo Boingo\, they have gotten the history of this film and its artists firsthand. Plus\, they will unlock the jaw-dropping secrets of the incredible incognito\, head-scratching band\, Invisible Sex! \n\n\n\nConsidered one of the most ground zero documents of the late 70s/early 80s New Music Scene\, Urgh! A Music War has rarely been seen on the big screen. Featuring 34 bands ranging from the well-known (The Police\, Devo\, X\, Joan Jett\, XTC\, The Go-Gos & Gary Numan) to the true underground (Dead Kennedys\, Magazine\, The Cramps\, Pere Ubu\, Au Pairs\, Klaus Nomi)\, the film is beautifully shot and recorded\, allowing each band to sound and perform completely authentically. \n\n\n\nMore about The Professors Of Urgh!: \n\n\n\nChaki is a Los Angeles-based electro-funk artist\, performer\, and underground culture instigator blending heavy bass\, synth-driven grooves\, and a surreal\, offbeat stage presence. He has toured with El Vez and Fishbone and opened for Parliament Funkadelic\, as well as opening multiple dates on tour for Jerry Harrison and Adrian Belew’s Remain in Light touring band. His latest release\, From L.A. to the Bay on High Occulture Records\, is a career-spanning 12″ featuring classic bangers and three new cuts. Beyond music\, Chaki is the creator of the Punk Rock Graveyard Tour at Hollywood Forever Cemetery\, a cult-favorite experience exploring the resting places and stories of punk and underground icons. He is also a recurring guest on The Best Show with Tom Scharpling\, hosted by Tom Scharpling. \n\n\n\nChris Slusarenko is the host of the top ten Apple Music Interview podcast\, Revolutions Per Movie— a guest-driven podcast about music films with guests such as Peter Buck of R.E.M.\, icon Paul Williams\, Spiral Stairs of Pavement\, Ann Magnuson & Kevin McDonald of Kids In The Hall. A lifelong musician with albums on Sub Pop & Rough Trade\, he has been a member of Guided By Voices and Eyelids\, and has also been an independent video store owner for over 20 years.
