Right now only at the library at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. We had the full film up on Vimeo for a year but it was too expensive too keep it there. Its hard to find a good cheap place to host a movie of this length.
- madmod 4y agoCan I please buy a copy?
- logisticsfilm 4y agounfortunately its not for sale, but we are actively looking for a place to host it as a VOD again. Send us an email if you want to be notified if and when its available again. (email in profile)
- chrismiller 4y agoWould love to help you get this back online if you are interested! Happy to host it or point you in the right direction if you'd like to do it yourself.
- logisticsfilm 4y agoSounds great! Our email is in our profile.
- metadat 4y agoAre you open to distributing via torrent?
- logisticsfilm 4y agoSo far we have chosen not to because we consider the core of the work to be the continuous length of the film. A torrent would enable timelapses and short versions. But we will think about it.
- djbusby 4y agoThat can/will happen regardless of distribution via Vimeo or torrent or YT or whatever. Torrent doesn't enable that any more than any other distribution channel.
- robswc 4y agoYea, a bit confused about that as well. Maybe they mean providers could offer the download in chunks? But yea, there's nothing stopping someone getting the full file and just ffwding that.
- yunohn 4y agoWhat’s wrong with a timelapse? Seems like the perfect opportunity.
- t6jvcereio 4y agoThis is weird. No normal person is going to watch 857 hours. The only person to watch that long are movie industry people, so they can write about it. Separate question, how do you monetize this?
- jamiek88 4y agoIt’s art.
- radihuq 4y agoout of curiosity, how big is the file? EDIT: never mind, I see you answered this in another comment: > The original film is around 10TB of mpeg2 1080p 25mbit/sec 25 frames per second. > We later transcoded to h264, it now clocks in at about 2TB.

- djbusby 4y agoIs this a case for PeerTube?
- corny 4y agoThe Polygon Gallery (North Vancouver, BC) hosted The Clock a few years ago. But staying open for a 24 hour long film must be much easier than for a month long film.
- kevinmchugh 4y agoCould you continuously stream it on twitch or YouTube or the like?
- logisticsfilm 4y agoYoutube has commercials which we would like to avoid, but we had not considered twitch. Perhaps that's a good idea. We have livestreamed it before, but it's quite a commitment to keep a stream running 24/7 for 37 days.
- junon 4y agoTorrents?
- logisticsfilm 4y agoGreat idea, thanks! Since several of you have asked how to watch the movie, we spontaneously decided to stream the first 21 hours of Logistics on Twitch. Since it will soon be night here in Sweden, we will not be able to keep track of the stream. We're keeping our fingers crossed that it works. Unfortunately we will not be able to stream the entire film this time, but hope to do so later. The stream is live now at https://www.twitch.tv/logisticsartproject https://www.twitch.tv/logisticsartproject
- buck4roo 4y agoHave you considered archive.org?
- gregsadetsky 4y agoReally great suggestion -- @logisticsfilm you should consider it! Also https://ubu.com/ https://ubu.com/ might be interested to host/distribute it and it's a great fit as well.

- epolanski 4y agoSplit it in different pieces and upload it on YouTube?
- moralestapia 4y agoSounds like a good fit for Cloudflare's R2 (and see if they keep their word).
