Camera Obscura is a device that offers audiences the unique experience of a movie screening without electricity. Viewers settle into the camera obscura and watch a film being projected in real time from outside. The images are projected using an optical system made up of lenses and mirrors. The sounds and music are produced and performed live on a set of acoustic and mechanical instruments. The film being screened is Memories of the Future. It is a collection of fragments—vague or anecdotal evocations of possible futures. Speculative narratives that break free from science fiction tropes and offer a vision—neither utopian nor apocalyptic—of a future that is multifaceted, ordinary, and strange.
