McLAUGHLIN + BLOOMBERG + SNIDER +
The SF Earthquake and Firestorm of 1906 was one of the first natural disasters to create a true media frenzy. On the (almost) anniversary of the ’06 Quake, we are spectacularly pleased to have back the literally eye-popping 3-D projections of the Bay Area‘s own Pad McLaughlin, this time with fellow stereo superstar Bob Bloomberg!! These two masters offer a full 40 amazing minutes of the ’06 and ’89 temblors, true history lessons as well as delirious visual thrills. Our second half releases a riot of 3-D formats, from a half-dozen artistes: Bernal Heights media-queen Greta Snider shares her Unfinished Business from Ancestors, unsettled ghost visions made from phytograms and found footage, while Hy Hirsch provides a post-mortem peek at Come Closer. PLUS OC faves John Warren, Rich Pell, Pete Smith, and even the Three Stooges. Come early for the free wine and anaglyph visit to a Viewmaster factory!
