Ondi Timoner's film, "We Live In Public" will be screened at the NY MOMA on Sunday, April 5 at 7 & 7:30 p.m. This presentation is part of the Film Society of Lincoln Center's New Directors, New Films '09 series.
From the Film Society of Lincoln Center site:
"Irreverent, insightful, and authentic, Ondi Timoner’s Sundance Grand Jury Prize-winner is a boundlessly resourceful insider’s view of the rise and fall of Internet pioneer Josh Harris, the “Warhol of the Web,” and a totally entertaining view of heady times in the art and technology vortex of 1990s Downtown Manhattan.
Mirroring the excitement, innovation, and imaginative creativity that made the technology we live with today, the documentary captures the performance live-in “QUIET, We Live In Public,” Josh Harris’s millennium bunker that brought more than a hundred of the art and technology world’s well-knowns together to live out their fantasies and fears under 24-hour surveillance. It then takes the viewer on a true rollercoaster ride oscillating between repulsion and fascination, from the birth of the web to how it today turns on itself and becomes a cautionary tale about the way we employ and embrace technology."
