A 20 minute documentary and over 25 TV shows were produced
over the course of the Pilot weekend. A beautiful double DVD set now exists, and it includes 15
TV shows, the Pilot Documentary, the original video "Calls for Participation", photos, posters
and other ephemera. You can email me at emily[at]multiplefronts.org if you
participated in Pilot, or are interested in screenings and/or distribution and
