I’ve just finished a really fun feature in Experience magazine on Rick Perlinger’s “Lost Landscapes…” films.

Far more than just a movie screening or local history talk, the event is an alchemical spectacle, in which old images — traces of light, etched on scraps of celluloid ages ago — are re-awakened to recall our urban past….

Thanks so much to my editors at Experience, Joanna Wiess and Erick Trickey, as well as Rick Perlinger for spending time with me to talk about his work, as well as Sharon Harlan at Northeastern, who added some thoughtful comments to the piece. (Click here for the article.) Enjoy!

ps: Be sure to notice the 1918-era pandemic masks on the guys in the streets in the short video illustration….!
