My wife Anne and I attend each year as a date-day to seek new forms of creativity and imagination within a local context... ...and once again the most interesting exhibit was hosted in the Harvest Pavilion: "Rewind: A VHS Revival". Same as last year's tribute to LP cover art, the curators started with a simple premise -- in this case, "Remember movies on videotape?

  6. Got my first new video store membership in (almost) 20 years today: Video Wave in Noe Valley. Not too convenient to visit, but I’ll figure it out somehow. #HomeVideo #NoeValley #PhysicalMedia #SanFrancisco #VideoWave

  11. Anyone here interested in dead physical media formats?

    Many probably won't remember but in the mid 2000s, there was the last "Format War" we saw in the Home Video Entertainment business - namely HD DVD from Toshiba vs. Blu-ray from Sony. While the latter succeeded, I began to collect several stuff from the first format and last weekend I was unboxing a BRAND NEW and still SEALED HD DVD Player from 2007. 😍
