A somewhat tragic turn of events as Jud and I had plans to release a
DVD package of his films and documentation next year.
I met him several times, most recently in Paris a few months ago. He
once sent a beautiful Maurer optical sound camera to us at
L'Abominable - just this week we made some optical sound tracks and
composite prints by hand start to finish, including cross mod
testing, density checks, etc. Jud sent us down this path years ago.
We had not yet started working on his DVD project, so I have nothing
to go on and no direct contact with Peg (who suffered a stroke
recently) but if all is kept well in his house as he led me to
believe then there is hope that it can be preserved, archived and
distributed in the future.

I don't know the current state/whereabouts of his work, but will try
to find out. He rejoined Canyon when I worked there, and I had a few
nice and interesting conversations with me, but can't really say I
knew him. I like what I've seen of his work, and he definitely broke
some major ground as a media artist, for which he will, I imagine,
continue to gain recognition.
I'll do some checking about his work and where it resides. If I can
do something about it to help, I'll be happy to, and can keep folks
posted here if I learn anything.

Here's hoping his archive and oeuvre becomes properly cataloged and
accessible to scholars and cinephiles, if not somewhere local to
the Ohio community that he fostered for so many years, than
somewhere where it might be more accessible to larger numbers, like
Anthology, the Academy and so on.

When I heard of his passing, I wondered how many younger folks had
even heard of him, much less seen some of his work.
