Projector Room

The projectors were housed in here for the small medical theater. Some films are strewn about the floor.

Any chance the films are still good?

Probably not the ones that are left. An esteemed Byberrian I know has gathered many audio tapes he had found there and has put them to CD. I have a few copies of the sessions. Very odd.

Any way to post those audio clips? I'd LOVE to hear that stuff.

Eediot, email me at radical_ed@yahoo.com and I'll send you a list of Byberry links and if you're interested, copies of the sessions on cd. I have pics of my own but I'll not compete with Lord Motts and his art.

Lord Motts,
I am but a humble observer amongst scores of spectators requesting Please kind Sir; enlighten us with your view through the grand camera lens.



And so it goes that; the Fairytale takes on reality.

Is that a demon face on the window shade on the right? Is that just the was it's corroded, or did someone put it there? It looks like a skeleton/demon face w/a star on the forehead!

They aren't windows, but projector portals. The portal on the right has an obvious crude graffitti drawing of the mascot of the thrash band "Overkill" done by Blitz, a Byberry regular..

I don't usually correct comments but, "port glass" is always how it has been called by myself and other Proj. techs!! ;-)

That would be fine...except there's never been any glass in them.

Sure Art. Just send me your address via email at radical_ed@yahoo.com. If you're over 18 and live nearby, I can give you a tour if you want. Put Byberry in the header because I delete unknown sources.

Which auditorium is this? There were three auditoriums: the old ballroom above the old women's (c-building) dining room, the Furey Ellis Hall (large auditorium), and the lecture hall (small auditorium).

I believe it was for the lecture hall.
