Anamnesia: Unforgetting : Polytemporality, implacement and possession in The Crista Dahl Media Library & Archive
2012
Anamnesia: Unforgetting was a series of video screenings that explored polytemporality, implacement and possession in the Crista Dahl Media Library & Archive, originally collected through the early Satellite Video Exchange program. Emerging out of Intermedia, the Satellite Video Exchange collection documents important correspondence, performance and activist video collaborations in Vancouver’s art history. The publication features video stills and numerous black and white photographs of the original video library and viewing lounge at 261 Powell Street, postcards, letters, and day book scans from the archive’s print collection. It features texts by Sharon Bradley, Amy Kazymerchyk, Donato Mancini, Alex Muir, and Cecily Nicholson, and an interview with Crista Dahl, one of the founding members of the Satellite Video Exchange Society (known at various times as The Video Inn, Video In, and VIVO Media Arts Centre). The accompanying three-DVD box set of the curated screenings features restorations of twenty-eight short art videos from the 1970s and 1980s.
