Tomorrow at Light Industry

I have a book lecture/screening that I've shown at @lightindustry.bsky.social, SFU, and (soon) LA Filmforum. Here's an example film I screen, which is meant to simulate the emergence of a class society with rats! I'll be on sabbatical soon and happy to travel if anyone wants to host the full program

Looks amazing
