"The Digger Archives is an ongoing Web project to preserve and present the history of the anarchist guerrilla street theater group that challenged the emerging Counterculture of the Sixties and whose actions and ideals inspired (and continue to inspire) a generation (of all ages) to create models of Free Association. "
"Loren showed up one day with an offer of several of his videos for the Digger Archives. This was serendipity—Loren's donation was in time for the 50th anniversary of the Human Be-In that took place at the Polo Fields in Golden Gate Park on January 14, 1967, one of the foundational-formational events in the hippie counterculture. Loren filmed the Be-In and then put out the call for other filmmakers to contribute their footage. The result was a collaborative collective effort to mark that moment when the Haight-Ashbury announced itself to the world."
