I wrote an essay about Zach's tumultuous life during its production for ByNWR back when the restoration first debuted, but it's not available on his website anymore. However, thanks to the Wayback Machine, you can read it here:

ByNWR, I think I still have some films from there downloaded from before they had any copy protection

yeah, looks like the films were "moved" to MUBI (https://mubi.com/collections/bynwr), but everything else (based on some cursory web sleuthing) seems to be MIA

tho now I'm bummed bcz I went to see if any of the Ormond films are still up on the byNWR site, & that site -- which was streaming very-obscure restored- / endorsed-by-Refn faves in conjunction w/ lots of supplementary material -- has been replaced with a promo for NWR's Netflix show

SATELLITES: NICOLAS WINDING REFN WITH HIDEO KOJIMA

I went to the exhibition "SATELLITES: NICOLAS WINDING REFN WITH HIDEO KOJIMA" at the Prada Aoyama.

This project, where the two creators come together, is supported by the Fondazione Prada and conceived by the creative studio byNWR. The exhibition will showcase a brand-new collaborative work by Nicolas Winding Refn and Hideo Kojima. 👀

The ByNWR Ormond Family films are incredibly fascinating.

Después de mucho tiempo, hay un peli nueva en byNWR, Horrors of Spider Island 🕷️. Haciendo honor a su título, tiene una pinta horrorosa. bynwr.com/videos/horro...

This new Refn/#byNWR project (TOO OLD TO DIE YOUNG) is like if you took the sleaziest, most nihilistic LA noir imaginable but filmed it in the style of slow cinema. I can't believe that it's nearly 13 hours long or even really that it exists at all
