Suicide Box® (1996) by Kate Rich

This September I have decided to do something different and upload rare films that have really influenced me as a creator. While I don't like to overtly pirate media, I do think it is necessary to do so when the media is otherwise impossible to obtain by the average person. It is crucial that art be available to everyone.

A documentary video about the B.I.T. Suicide Box-a motion-triggered camera developed by the Bureau of Inverse Technology (a private information agency), and installed within range of the Golden Gate Bridge to capture a video record of anything that falls from the bridge, and provide an accurate measure of the suicide rate. The tape points to confusing roles for technology within contemporary culture.
