When I went to create this page, I realized that I'd actually forgotten what I had published in here. I'm delighted to be reminded that this issue came with a DVD that I have something on & that not only is my contribution to the printed matter portion about the movie, it also includes something by my esteemed colleague Bruce Stater.

The name of the movie is "Ledger of St. Dermain" & it's available on my onesownthoughts YouTube channel:

This was a very fertile time in Pittsburgh. Alas, all my collaborators on "Ledger of St, Dermain" have since moved away. The publisher, Encyclopedia Destructica, have long since ceased publishing. The editor of the issue, Matt Wellins, has moved away as have the editors of ED (although one's still close). At least 8 of the moviemakers have moved away.

There was a time when Pittsburgh had a very happening experimental film scene. That's basically gone now & this DVD & book is a reminder of its heyday.
