Hi Jared,

I found these:

http://www.vasulka.org/archive/5-9/Timeouts(5151).pdf 
<http://www.vasulka.org/archive/5-9/Timeouts(5151).pdf>

http://vasulka.org/Catalogues/PDFs/Cat_MachineMedia.pdf 
<http://vasulka.org/Catalogues/PDFs/Cat_MachineMedia.pdf>

Both PDFs are searchable, and both reference Mekas’s statement, though they do 
not say where or when he first made it. But at least there’s a source you can 
cite.

All best,
JW
