+===== Victorville Film Archives (original location) =====
+During the filming of //[[decker2]]//, lead actor and director [[tim]] wrote and filmed a scene in which [[jackdecker]], having discovered that [[kington]] unknowingly owned a bugged VHS tape, destroys Kington's collection of tapes to prevent any further leaks. Incensed by the on-screen destruction of his [[greggscollection|personal collection]], Gregg left //On Cinema// temporarily. His collection was restored many times over, however, when he acquired a closing video store's entire stock of VHS tapes. He subsequently returned to the show and christened his newly-acquired library the Victorville Film Archives.
+Gregg spent a great deal of time cataloging the tapes in the Archives according to his own [[codingsystem]]. He consented to filming [[s07e09|an episode]] of //On Cinema// at the Archives, which revealed numerous moving boxes packed with VHS tapes, as well as some VHS screening equipment. The physical location of the archive was later revealed to have been a storage facility in Victorville.
+During [[season8|season 8]] of //On Cinema//, Tim was left homeless after being estranged from his wife [[ayaka]], and made the Archives his home. While living there, he used the space for songwriting activities with [[dekkar]], which prompted complaints from the facility's landlord.
+The Archives burned down when Tim fell asleep while smoking. The exact circumstances are unclear. As Gregg described it, Tim dropped a lit cigarette which ignited a blanket; according to Tim, his vape overheated and set a cardboard box alight. In any case, the Archives were a total loss, along with most of Gregg's personal items. Tim was severely burned and disfigured, requiring many reconstructive surgeries.
