DESCRIPTION:SEPT. 6: BALDWIN's 222 BOOK-LAUNCH/AUCTION + 16MM ANOMALIES \n\nOther 
 Cinema is back, jes' shaking with the excitement of a case of Archive 
 Fever...a wide-eyed, full-bodied embrace of our own kind of Cultural 
 Anthropology, a sub-pop group-grok of both outsider cinema and street-savvy 
 fashion!! Yes, BOTH the astonishing surprises in secret 16mm 
 industrial-film collections, AND the marvelous milieux opened and at hand 
 in the instance of an actual public auction of vintage Tees!!\n \nCraig 
 Baldwin's limited-edition 222 T-SHIRTS– in this, his fourth book's 
 inaugural launch--serves as a irresistible invitation to a cinemascopic 
 display of thee most curious clothing artifacts...on tables, on the walls, 
 and on live models!..scheduled so that the bidding plays as prologue to a 
 delirious evening of gobsmackin' celluloid core-samples. The two 
 lineages— both from the cotton plant!--here understood as precious traces 
 of particular sensibilities oh-so-at-risk of disappearing forever into the 
 black hole of forgotten cultural history. Come in to browse for free for 
 the afternoon's silent auction; we'll deliver the garments to the winners 
 at our 8PM showtime. \n\nTitles include: A 1953 tribute to the rescue of 
 Treasures in a Garbage Can (the veritable theme of tonight's 
 event!)...IBM's mid-50s proto-techno-utopian Piercing the Unknown...a '56 
 personal-travelog on a Carnivalesque Caribbean cargo cult, in 
 Kodachrome...an early-70s Christian rant on ''cults”, with Eldridge 
 Cleaver(!)...a mid-70s Oscar Mayer Wienermobile ride into a funk-fueled 
 factory overflowing with fatty cow flesh...a '68 educational-TV explication 
 of human sexual intercourse...a late-70s Mormon fantasia of Jesus Christ 
 preaching amongst the Mayan pyramids... an early-80s human-potential 
 confessional on celebrity bed-wetting...a mid-70s 
 doomed-date/tsunami-apocalypse cautionary...and of course mid-century 
 trailers, TV commercials, and Russ Forster on the Califone! PLUS free 
 books, films, albums, cassettes, even laserdiscs...and open bar! \n
