Dear friends of Vtape

For over a decade, Vtape has developed an intensive and multi-faceted  
intern programme for students and members of the interested public.  
Dragging my video camera down the front steps: 30 years of  
unconventional camera movements from the Vtape collection provides a  
showcase for the curatorial research of one of our recent  - and  
longest serving – technical interns, John Shipman.

Shipman says this of his intriguing selection: “Eight short videos,  
from 1974 to 2004, playfully use unusual camera positions and  
movements to create a slightly different visual gravity, showing  
things improbable, but viscerally informative."

The opening screening will be on Saturday November 21 from 2pm-4pm.  
The screenings will be at 2:00pm and 3:30pm with a curator's talk at  
3:00pm.
