Who's coming to LOC Culpeper for Orphans X?

Photo by David March. 
Always a pleasure to reflect on the eclectic nature of who participates in the Orphan Film Symposium, where they come from, what institutions they work with, how many hats they wear in this community where the act of saving, showing, studying, collecting, and curating the rich diversity of orphan films is paramount. From Paramount Pictures and Turner Broadcasting System to A/V Geeks and Film Love, from AMPAS to COLAB, from IBM to BB Optics. Independent curator-artist-critics and directors of national film archives. Private and public sector. Universities and microcinemas. Distributors and librarians. All soon convening on the grandest Library since Alexandria. (And, yes, someone from Egypt will be at the podium on Saturday.) 

Published program pops up here.  

People are still registering <www.nyu.edu/orphanfilm>. So far we see that symposiasts are coming from Switzerland, Argentina, Canada, Mexico, England, Colombia, Norway, Bolivia, Germany, Kosovo, Chile, Austria, Belgium, Ghana, the Netherlands, China, Portugal . . . from New York and California, North Carolina and South Carolina.
