CAMP presents
Saturday or Sunday evening screenings through winter,
exploring footage both within and outside the usual capsule of "the
film". An experience that could be similar to watching films, or at
other times harder to digest, or slower to release, closer to the moment of
shooting, less censorious, and less fearful of finitude. Another life,
another world of viewing and listening experiences is always possible.
CAMP
is involved in a 2-year "print-from-web"
project, linked to its own investigations of the infrastructures of commerce and
pleasure in this part of London. As part of the first "block study", we looked at several buildings and their ownership and use histories, and produced a series of tablemats.
The web-based part of the project resides at http://edgwareroad.org. ( now at Print.with.camp ) This website collects materials from various such "studies", conducted by us and
others, which then are collaboratively edited and published in a number of physical forms: volumes, pamphlets and placemats.
This is an ongoing project, as part of the Serpentine Gallery's Public
Program.

Some of the designs that were sketched out are further below: a big requirement was some retractability, i.e. the ability to have a shading roof in the day but to have it open/ partially open at night, for things like screenings under the stars.

A ride through the industrial district around Roshanara road, Delhi.
We come across various sites and histories of the "industrial age" in the city, and its related narratives of automation, pollution, labour and closure.
The tour is on cycle-rickshaws, with ricksha-wallas as narrators and guides.
In March 2008 Shaina Anand collaborated with Manchester Metropolitan University and Arndale Shopping Centre to open working CCTV environments to a general audience. People normally 'enclosed' by these networks came into the control rooms to view, observe and monitor this condition, endemic in the UK.
