cyberbuss
A Virtual Trip
The true story of a group of artists and freethinkers who leave their mark on San Francisco and an era at the turn of the millennium and the silver school bus that carried them.
ABOUT THE FILM
For the last few years members of the CyberBuss crew have been working on a documentary film about the adventures of our iconic silver bus and global community that have come to symbolize creative freedom, countercultural values, personal expression, and uninhibited revelry in San Francisco and beyond at the turn of the millennium.
Over the years our wild escapades and mischievous merrymaking were captured by various CyberBuss freaks who shot hours of video footage and took hundreds of photos. Sam Frangiamore, film producer and CyberBuss captain, requested they share their treasure troves of images and started organizing the generous contributions to the CyberBuss archive. The story began to emerge. In 2017 we shot interviews with key players who shared stories of their experience on the CyberBuss and in the Bay Area underground arts scene that it was part of.
In 2023 CyberSam partnered with film director Peter Grigsby and film editor Aaron Freese to dive into the mountains of footage and produced a 7-minute film teaser that offers a glimpse into the role CyberBuss played within San Francisco’s vibrant creative renaissance during the social, political, and technological milieu of the late 90's. Now in 2024 we are gearing up for the next phase of the project - shooting more interviews and capturing the story of the CyberBuss in its newest incarnation, as well as beginning to raise money to fund production and distribution.
With the goal of producing a full length documentary film called "CYBERBUSS: A Virtual Trip" and entering film festivals over the next year, we invite you to Get on da Buss with us!
