Big Experimental Screen

I try to avoid it personally as it always seems to be showing sensationalist news or special interest sport but it appears the Big TV Screen in Chamberlain Square is being put to a more interesting use this month with a season of experimental films. Here's the schedule for the coming week:

Saturday, Monday to Friday @ 10am: Black River Stage, Madraykin, Doppelganger

Saturday, Monday to Friday @ 11am: Travellers Remember

Saturday @ 8.20pm, Friday @ 7pm & 10.35pm (Music Videos): Down & Dirty, Charmaine Kay, Taxi, Shimm 1-Up Your Game, Open Mindz, LG Tee

Sunday @ 1pm & 9pm: Travellers Remember

Sunday @ 7.35pm & Friday @ 5.15pm: Through and Far Between

Monday to Friday @ 12pm: Spellbound, Dreaming, Mind the Gap

Monday to Thursday @ 5.15pm: Chaos: Fractals, A Loop, Coloured Hymns

Monday to Wednesday @ 7pm: FEED Film Fest 06, Parallax 04, Mind the Gap

Monday to Thursday @ 10.35pm: Dreaming, Doppelganger, Parallax 04,Madraykin

Here's a big BBC puff piece for the giant idiot lantern which while showing some impressive stats (300 films mainly from local film makers were shown) doesn't address the fact that it's always on all the time regardless of whether anyone's watching.
