Join us for the screening of three films on socially provocative and ecologically ambitious creative projects from the Educational Television archive. The first is an 6-minute interview and the other two are 30-min documentaries. There will be a short guided discussion before and after each film.

Inspired by the spirit of publicly accessible educational programming from the 80s and 90s, Educational Television is a Problem Library project that archives short films, documentaries, and television programs we find valuable. Our aim is to reanimate television as a medium to educate, provoke, and inspire and to celebrate curiosity in the mechanisms, mystery, and magic of the world.

Educational Television currently exists as a website which streams two channels 24/7 and invites a “slow” viewing approach by removing the ability for viewers to skip or pause. At our in-person screenings we will use a broad theme to pull from the ever-growing archive, but we will not reveal the titles until the time of screening.

For a little more context on what we’ll be watching for this screening, explore the following figures:

• Revisiting Christo and Jeanne-Claude
• The Rebel Nun
