tonight there are a slew of openings across the boroughs. i plan on getting to two of them.<\/p>\n

The viewer is invited to look through an aperture and rotate a crank to view a series of moving images of Losier’s film Flying Saucey!, frame by frame. Magic Box’s singular mechanism refers to precursors of the modern motion picture such as the mutoscope (in which the successive phases of a scene are printed on paper and mounted on a wheel that rotates).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Then I’ll be heading out to Queens for the Opolis<\/a> opening at Flux Factory in LIC. Unfortunately the 7 train has no service b\/w Times Sq. and Queensboro Plaza so it’s anybody’s guess how to get out there.
