Black Glass examines the entangled histories of visual technology and the genocide and expropriation of Indigenous populations by white settlers through a violent collision of image and sound by looking back to Eadweard Muybridge’s series of stereographs taken of the U.S. Army’s efforts against the Modoc Tribe of Northern California during the Modoc War.
