Spectating this astronomical phenomenon became a mass social event: nearly a million people flocked to the region.Watch Party, an immersive multi-channel video installation, recreates this event, capturing the scene on the ground rather than the skies.Co-sponsored by Alternative Cinema and Film and Media Studies
