Astromatograph (est. 2023) investigates cinema and television through artful deception, mythmaking and analysis, while providing a framework for rehabilitation from pervasive afflictions of mainstream media.

Cinema and television are ensnared in the crosshairs of algorithmic governance, streaming platforms, and institutional interests. True iconoclasts recognize that film is a prophetic art — capable of extracting wisdom from the unseen — and worthy of deep reverence.

"Film is Worship"

Astromatograph was created by Nadiya Helm and is a wing of MystiCorp.
