After a long renovation, it looks like the Candle Building, once known for its many layers of chaotic street art is ready for its unveiling, all sparkly clean.

It’s coming up on the fifth anniversary of the August 14th, 2003 electrical blackout. On that evening I took my compact VHS camera out on the streets of the East Village, and kept it on while I wandered the neighborhood. Much of the tape consists of a dark blurry mess as the camera searches for something to focus on. But I did manage to extract some interesting video and audio. And though the walking footage may make those susceptible to motion-sickness nauseous, I think it does capture the spirit of the night. I combined this with recent interviews in Tompkins Square Park, where I asked people to tell me their 2003 Blackout stories.
