Luba Minsk spontaneously germinated inside a two
minute long undeveloped film roll of the little known Flossenbürg
concentration camp. As of this biography’s publication Luba
remains unaware that the Shoah has had a delineated beginning, middle
and end. Suckled at the sealed nipples of nitrate film Luba requires no
nourishment, no warmth, no color, only the ever-tilting impressions of
an anonymous Nazi anthropologist who unapologetically recorded her
world with overexposed light and anxiety. In this way, Luba feeds on
nitrocellulose as would a parasitical mold. When not eating, she
teaches online courses on Film Editing for the Tisch School of the Arts
at NYU. Her obscure theoretical text Transparent Vibration is banned in the US.
