“The Live Doc had an electric feel to it.  None of us in the audience knew exactly how others would respond to this emotional journey into history. It resonates so strongly with many contemporary issues we are grappling with in society today. I think everyone felt bonded together through this exploration in words, music, and image.”

“The Live Doc challenged traditional roles of audience, filmmaker, musician, and narrator. It’s a powerful way to demonstrate the modern relevance of historical events. I look forward to more work in this genre.”

“I thought the out-takes at the end were really strong and I loved the parts where the interviews don’t always corroborate the thesis of the project; the presentation really conveyed the messiness of historical research in a way that academic writing often doesn’t (for the most part). The discussion also was very strong and I thought the dialogical part might be developed further as that’s where I really got a sense of the global implications of the project.”

“[Rob] is such a natural speaker, both charismatic and articulate without a prepared script in front of him, which is something that most professors aspire to and that most … fall well short of. But I also appreciated how the project was using a live presence to activate both the space of the screening and the historical material.”
