Naked Eye Cinema was instituted by Jack Waters and Leslie Lowe in 1985 as an extension of the film program at ABC No Rio. Peter and Jack ran No Rio from roughly 1983-1990 with the collective energy of the circle they rolled with infusing a new wera of energy where cinema and performance propelled the foreshadowing of what is now knwo as "queer". Cramer and Waters have been the guiding force behind Le Petit Versailles, the infamous Greenthumb community garden that bridges the experimetnal underground to the current generation of radical artmaking.
