"Garbage Disposal: The Execution of Robert Alton Harris in the California Gas Chamber" documents the Northern California Collective Consciousness' efforts to increase public awareness around the 1990 execution-by-gas-chamber by the State of California of the convicted murderer, Robert Alton Harris. In this 27 minute documentary, N.C.C.C. spokesman, Tad Baker, eerily describes what awaits Robert Harris at 3:01 AM April 3rd and relates other macabre if fascinating details of California's 60 year history with the chamber. This raw, fluid documentary, shot on consumer-grade VHS by amateur photographers, chronicles the N.C.C.C'.s campaign to expose the gas chamber and thus, state execution to the public, using Baker's personal working single-seat replica at an indoor public viewing before being painstakingly carried up Mt. Davidson for an Easter Sunday Vigil.


The Northern California Collective Consciousness is a group of Chico- and San Francisco-based college students and professors, musicians, performance artists, philosophers and dope-smokers concerned with eliciting audience participation in the relevant issues of our era.

This document highlights the N.C.C.C.'s philosophical goal of fostering emotional reaction rather than the exchange of ideas. The N.C.C.C. is dedicated to exploring the great social issues of our times by delivering media whereby the viewer is freed to participate with their feelings instead of being forced to accept a particular intellectual or moral viewpoint. The N.C.C.C. believes society has become inundated with competing and often paradoxical systems of ideas which serve to confuse and separate the individual from their truest emotions and intuitions. Their work is characterized by the use of consumer-grade documentation by amateur photographers employing few if any editing tricks, relying instead on the integrity of the footage and its content to tell what the N.C.C.C. feels are vital and compelling stories.

27:19 minutes. Produced and directed by Uncle Tad Baker. Universal Thought Productions 2013.
