To Rick Liss. Thanks for sharing this cool timepiece film. You may want to take the parenthesis off the "No York City" because your video does not come up when I enter it in the search. It would also boost your views.

I dare say that Rob Ackerman is the only man who still says and probably has ever said "at the speed of blood". Makes "I dare say" sound like a modern introduction.

I love this.

Came here from Tales from the Crypt's John Kassir. Didn't much enjoy the soundtrack, but love the old NYC imagery.

Tremendous! The short does an amazing job of capturing a moment and place in time, it really feels like we've experienced an entire day's journey by the end.

For those that are curious, as I was: The song used in this is 'For Electric Dogs' by Laurie Anderson, featured on the album "You're the Guy I Want to Share My Money With" (1981).

fantastic! thank you for posting! i live in bushwick (brooklyn), ny

While Ms Anderson is time appropriate. Check out Lotus Plaza -Strangers set to this film. Conveys even a better sense of floating. 1970s/1980s surreal NYC.

impressive work! great video this is a mental trip!

Amazing.

make this world better

ahaha, what the hell are u talking about? )) those "criminals" make this world

Stayed Tuned!! And meanwhile, please visit (and "like") our burgeoning Facebook Fan page: No York City

This looks like something you would see on HBO back in the 80's.

Amazing.

@KingWi11 Some still used cams from the 60s and some got the best and newst cams they could get like i did.

@TGfeed You had way better cams then that dude come on.

2:26 "kill him, kill him, ass to mouth"

That was awesome!

I forgot just how dominant the WTC Towers were to the NYC skyliine. They stood out like no other building in the city.

turn volume to minimal lvl :) after a minute of this music your ears will start to bleed :D a joke ofc.. seriously, music is kinda annoying (it's basically the same throughout the movie), but video is great. definitely a LIKE :) GJ

I love it. I was a Stuyvesant High School student at the time, commuting daily from Brooklyn to E. 15th Street. I sensed at that time and place great potential for new creative possibilities and accomplishments. This was just before NYC was overrun by the first wave of Wall $treet profiteers and the unimaginable number of AIDS deaths. It was far from perfect: the city suffered from pollution, muggings, blight, and inefficient public transportation. But it also sparkled with discovery and hope.

FASCINATING! THANK YOU!

@KingWi11 we didn't shoot film with digital slr cameras in the 80s

Makes today's NYC look like Disneyland!

@cowofwar You don't get it...the cacophony, the confusion is exactly what the video is trying to do. NYC in the 80's (and still to this day) was a loud, confusing place...but that's what makes it such an amazing city

Wow, great memories. The year we had to flee… 0:56 is a Richard Hamilton figure, 1:10-1:14, Keith Harings in galleries, 1:15 is Dekooning, 1:17 is a Basquiat/Samo in a gallery.

Incredible...I miss the old NY....

@cowofwar one man's trash is another man's treasure

....................spectacular.................

what were the artworks in the gallery?

truly amazing.

This is garbage and probably was garbage at the time. Cacophony of noise and disjointed, confused video.

almost unwatchable, sorry.

i miss seedier nyc. ny felt so much more alive and interesting then. it was still too scary for all the idiots who took over after the city was turned into a big, tacky homogenous disney factory.

I was in NYC in the early 80's. To be honest, I miss New York being a little seedier than it is now!

fuck! that was brilliant.

NIce

Mindblowingly good! I remember and cherish this NYC, although I am not so sure I want it back . . . alhtough I am not too crazy about Giuliani's Disneyfied version that still persist,

New York City in the 1970's was much better - especially 42nd street times square.

Whoa, very nice! Brings back some memories.

Love this old N.Y.C stuff..
