Concept, Design, and Building the Continental Mark III Continuing the Tradition Volume 21 Issue 3 March 1, 2021 Concept, Design, and Building the Continental Mark III Continuing the Tradition Ernest & Judith Herrmann, Jr., Peoria, Illinois won the William Clay Ford Trophy with their 1969 Continental Mark III at the 1996 Eastern National Meet in Asheville, North Carolina Once again, we have dipped back into the archives and pulled out a very interesting article about the Mark III. Written by Buzz DeClerck and carefully edited by Tim Howley, it originally appeared in the March/April 1998 issue of Continental Comments. It is noted that the Mark III was honored at the Eastern National Meet and covered extensively in this Welcome to the particular issue of Comments. The Mark III is such a fine car in many respects and filled an important position in the market place. Subsequent models, the IV, V, VI, VII and finally Northstar News, the the Mark VIII were all appreciated by their first owners and as great collector cars in the monthly publication of following years since their introduction. The last of the Mark series rolled off the assembly the Northstar Region line in 1998. Sales of luxury sport coupes had fallen to the point where it was no longer possible to sustain production. Perhaps, someday, we will see another Mark as a Lincoln of the Lincoln and halo car. One can only hope.

  • Bamcinématek Presents Joe Dante at the Movies, 18 Days of 40 Genre-Busting Films, Aug 5—24
    BAMcinématek presents Joe Dante at the Movies, 18 days of 40 genre-busting films, Aug 5—24 “One of the undisputed masters of modern genre cinema.” —Tom Huddleston, Time Out London Dante to appear in person at select screenings Aug 5—Aug 7 The Wall Street Journal is the title sponsor for BAMcinématek and BAM Rose Cinemas. Jul 18, 2016/Brooklyn, NY—From Friday, August 5, through Wednesday, August 24, BAMcinématek presents Joe Dante at the Movies, a sprawling collection of Dante’s essential film and television work along with offbeat favorites hand-picked by the director. Additionally, Dante will appear in person at the August 5 screening of Gremlins (1984), August 6 screening of Matinee (1990), and the August 7 free screening of rarely seen The Movie Orgy (1968). Original and unapologetically entertaining, the films of Joe Dante both celebrate and skewer American culture. Dante got his start working for Roger Corman, and an appreciation for unpretentious, low-budget ingenuity runs throughout his films. The series kicks off with the essential box-office sensation Gremlins (1984—Aug 5, 8 & 20), with Zach Galligan and Phoebe Cates. Billy (Galligan) finds out the hard way what happens when you feed a Mogwai after midnight and mini terrors take over his all-American town. Continuing the necessary viewing is the “uninhibited and uproarious monster bash,” (Michael Sragow, New Yorker) Gremlins 2: The New Batch (1990—Aug 6 & 20). Dante’s sequel to his commercial hit plays like a spoof of the original, with occasional bursts of horror and celebrity cameos. In The Howling (1981), a news anchor finds herself the target of a shape-shifting serial killer in Dante’s take on the werewolf genre.

Also included in this exclusive presentation by and for Eyes Of A Generation, are the outside performance theaters and their conversion dates to NBC Television theaters. This compilation gives us the clearest and most concise guide yet to the production and technical operations of television’s early days and the network that pioneered so much of the new medium. As you will see, many shows were done as “remotes” in NBC radio studios with in-house mobile camera units, and predate the official conversion date which signifies the studio now has its own control room and stage lighting. Eyes Of A Generation would like to offer a huge thanks to the many past and present NBC people that helped, but most especially to Frank Merklein (NBC 1947-1961) Joel Spector (NBC 1965-2001), Dennis Degan (NBC 2003 to present), historian David Schwartz (GSN) and Gady Reinhold (CBS 1966 to present), for their first hand knowledge, photos and help.

  • The Alignment of Screens
    The Alignment of Screens Felipe Raglianti , B.A.; M.A. Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) Department of Sociology, Lancaster University, 2016 Declaration I declare that this thesis is my own work and that it has not been submitted in any form for the award of a higher degree elsewhere. Felipe Raglianti, June 2016 1 Abstract This thesis makes a distinction between screen and surface. It proposes that an inquiry into screens includes, but is not limited to, the study of surfaces. Screens and screening practices are about doing both divisions and vision. The habit of reducing screens to the display neglects their capacity to emplace separations (think of folding screens). In this thesis an investigation of screens becomes a matter of asking how surfaces and the gaps in between them articulate alignments of people and things with displays that, in practice, always leave something out of sight. Rather than losing touch with screens by reducing them to surfaces, in other words, I am interested in alternative screen configurations. For this task I sketch an approach that touches on screens through the figures of lines, surfaces, textures, folds, knots and cuts. Lines help me to make the case for thinking about screens as alignments. I then ask what kinds of observers emerge from reducing screens to single or digital surfaces. I trace that concern with Google Glass, a pair of “smartglasses” with a transparent display. To distinguish between screen and surface I suggest, through a study of biodetection and assistance dogs, how to qualify or texture screens within webs of relations.
