Tues 10 Feb (Wo)man With Mirror, notes from Louise
The discussion had two starters. One was the Val conversation re-cap which appears below.

Mike L: notes from Long Film
A few folks who we invited to experience our private “screening” of Long Film for Ambient Light have begun to filter back with their thoughts after the event. Mike and Deborah visited in its last half hour, late Saturday morning the 17th of March. Mike sent us these thoughts:
