september 1975.
When I was reshooting the old negatives and slides in 2014, I sorted them by years, months, and when I knew them, dates. For this month I'm not quite in the clear whether all the shots go into this month, some should be in the next years, and yet some I know I shot now, like this one of Sleš in the amphitheatre - as the new Dom wasn't quite built yet, that'd be on the saint twonyninth (of november), so in the summer the disco was there.
There are a few shots of which I thought were from Dom, becuase I shot them from the projector booth, which I knew by heart already, I ran films for them twice (once it was Gavras's „Z“, which I then never really watched, and maybe „Strawberry statement“, of which I know I preserved a few frames that I found on the floor there, maybe that one time only... yep, the piece is 35mm, and „Z“ was on 16mm. I never operated a 35mm projector, it's a much screwier machine, with so much stronger motor and lamp).
But on the other shot I see the whole dashboard, with some twenty power sockets and a solid mixette and some guy sitting there... And gradually I recognize that this is the komitet. Look at that, I didn't even remember ever making it into their projector booth. Had I not preserved this shot I wouldn't have known, it completely aired out of my head. Truth be told, I don't remember the way to the booth in either building now.
On the stage, as far as I can recognize, should be Adža, Zaka, Sleš, and perhaps a few of Pa. The machinery partially obscuring the view should be a slide projector and maybe a movie projector, though this doesn't look like mine, could be one from DC-99.
A show was, by all hints, prepared, perhaps a quiz like two years ago (though, rather not, these things would always be in the spring), no idea anymore. These occurred regularly, nobody remembers them anymore, and I had only these fisix shots left, so this is as much as I can remember from them.
Mentions: DC-99, Dom omladine, komitet, Mika Zelenić (Sleš), Pa šta onda, Radoslav Kajganić (Zaka), Stanimir Hadžić (Adža), in serbian
