SUMMARY:Temporary Exhibition: Cam (Short Film)
DESCRIPTION:The Museum of Cambridge is delighted to host CAM\, a short film on the alternate view of one of the world’s most academic and prestigious cities. \nCaptured throughout 2023\, the 4-minute film features black and white still images against an original score. Filmmakers Ryan Cooper Henniker (Being Both\, 2019) and Matthew Ward (Stranger\, 2024) set out to showcase a side of Cambridge that is seldom celebrated and mostly hidden from an external gaze. \nRyan\, director and photographer\, notes: “Cambridge is an internationally revered centre of academic and scientific excellence\, an image that is continuously projected by media and City officials\, but that’s only half the story: the city is so much more\, and diverse in every sense of the word with a rich local history. Cam attempts to archive it before development and unaffordability turns Cambridge into something else.” \nEvery sound was recorded in person by Matthew\, and the film’s sound design incorporates around 100 local voices alongside cars\, mopeds\, buses\, construction work\, bicycle bells\, gentle sounds of the river Cam and its wildlife\, and even someone vaping. Designed to imitate an immersive walk through the streets of Cambridge in 2024\, it shows how every voice has a different rhythm and pitch\, that changes in many ways depending on our emotions and environment. \nInterview subjects consist of a wide range of residents from community group founders\, staff at Milton Recycling Centre and local influencer and mental health advocate The Barefoot Guy. Participants’ stories highlight deep-rooted rituals and connections to the city and its former life as a collection of villages with their own customs. The stories of local families and views juxtapose with the increasingly transient nature of the city. \nCam features one interview with a resident speaking in the now rare Cambridge accent\, a dialect dying out as new citizens move in\, and long-time communities disperse. \nThe images were shot across hundreds of hours of walking the streets and connecting with locals\, mixed with unexpected and unstaged moments\, captured from afar. \n  \nThe temporary exhibition Cam opens on Monday 3rd of February and will be on display until early April.  Standard admissions rates apply. Entry is £7 with a donation\, £6 as standard and free for 16 years and under.  \nAccessibility \nYou can read about our accessibility information on our website here Accessibility – The Museum of Cambridge.
