Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

It enables us to think beyond recuperation and preservation, beyond text and context, beyond physical artefacts and archives. As I will argue, the remix also opens onto the possibility of new film histories and historiographic futures: not the digital annihilation of the celluloid archive, but a reinvigorated theorizing of film history that owes and offers something to the living present.”
The following video essays engage with filmic representations related to the Projecting 1943 path. A primary concern throughout the short essays is the in/ability of the films to represent the pachuca as a character with agency, or even quite literally a voice (for example, in Del otro lado del puentethe catatonic mother cannot speak).
The collection of these video essays represent my early experimentation with the form. I first showed the first two together at the 2012 iMAPPENING exhibition.
