A dream of a 1,000-year camera
Sam Raimi wants to document a millennium
Tuesday, June 29, 2004
CULVER CITY, California (AP) -- Sam Raimi hopes to remain in film a long time after he's through making "Spider-Man" movies. For about 1,000 years.
Raimi wants to build the "Century Cam," a network of cameras that would document the United States' urban landscape for a millennium.
The proposal: Position cameras above all major American cities and shoot one frame -- a 24th of a second of film -- each day at noon. The frames would be strung together gradually to create a continuous chronicle of each city's development.
