Intro


 

a super8 newsreel from 1937 holds the remembrance of news to come.
knowing what followed the turmoil of this prewar time,
this old news sparked a deep feeling of despair and
an ominous sense of deja vu.

you are invited to look at the images of the past through
an ar app that replaces the former news to present ones,
showing how history repeats itself. 

play the video and use the app fpn on your iphone or ipad
to switch from the news of 1937 to today's state of affairs.
just press start and point the camera view to your
computer screen.

tips:

- for better viewing experience, watch video
in full screen.

- on the camera screen use landscape mode,
as it provides a better viewing experience

- make sure there are no reflections on your
screen. a dark environment works better.

For it is an irretrievable picture of the past, which threatens to disappear with every present, which does not recognize itself as intended in it.
