"There is also a new venue in west Oakland called "Black Hole" which (I believe) promotes itself primarily via Facebook. Best just to go there (Facebook that is, assuming if you are part of the Facebook hive mind) and search for them"
thanks for the mention, but i use facebook as tool, like any other, however i would hesitate to identify myself or the theatre with any "hive mind mentality" such as that. I always have said if you don't learn how to use a tool you become one. sorry if i seem defensive, these are my ramblings of a recovering "luddite" perhaps, and once again, honestly though, i'm assuming you meant no ill will and thanks our primary source of "promoting ourselves" would probably be through extensive word of mouth and flyering. which we did before our "web presence" and will continue to do throughout and in collaboration with various online pathways. we are indeed new, and just getting on our feet as a regular public venue. we also have a blog for announcements which is blackholecinema.wordpress.com, I am also at work on a regular print publication as an extension of the microcinema as well. we have free tuesday screenings and project both digital and celluloid (usually 16mm). we are working on starting to have monthly group showings and are also beginning to host paying gigs for the work of touring films and filmmakers if you would like to get in touch or learn more about the place email me at blackholecin...@gmail.com or stop by the warehouse (or send a letter!) at 1038 24th street/ Oakland, CA/94607
