Description:

Pad.ma is a video archive consisting of footage and unfinished film. The whole collection is searchable but for non-commercial use only

Goals:

Pad.ma is a way to access the images, intentions and effects present in video footage, that have tended to suppress for a log time. This expanded treatment then points to other, political potentials for such material, and leads us into lesser-known territory for video itself.
