Land Lines

Synopsis

Living In the shadows of an engineering marvel of the twentieth century is a place where the old New York still exists.  A haunted waterfront where people go to be alone in a city that increasingly watches your every step.  A place where you can make a call on an analog payphone while you watch massive ships pass through the misty channel.

This music video shows us one of the last spots in New York City that predates ever present communication, post-9/11 surveillance, untouched by Broken Windows Theory and the digital economy.  The boardwalk under the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge is an analog place.  But analog places can only last for so long until the digital creeps its way in.
