We’re researching a doc about the Electric Circus, a nightclub that existed on the lower east side of NYC from 67-71. I’ve been told long since deceased filmmaker Barbara Rubin shot some footage there Might anyone have a contact with her estate? If you can help at all please contact me directly. We’re also searching for footage of the lower east side from that period as well as the following performers and celebrities either performing at the club or during that time period:
Circus Maximus The Paupers Elephants Memory The United States of America Dave Van Ronk The Stone Ponies Auto Salvage Reunion with John Cage Pauline Oliveros Mel Powell Michael Sahl (Theater) David Behrman (Theater) Salvatore Martirano (Theater Lincolns Gettys burg address performed with a gas mask on) William Russo with Irma Routen (Theater “The Civil War” in memory of Martin Luther King) Alvin Lucier with Takahiko Iimura “Shelter 999999” Lejaren Hiller “Machine Music” Morton Subotnick (Live Electronic Music) (Started the San Francisco Tape Center) Sirocco (Electronic Street Music) Terry Riley Cecil Taylor and Don Cherry Christopher Tree Pulsa (Electronic Music environments performed by Yale students) Children of God Cyrus Erie Izhak Perlman Stephens Kate Michael Frager David Rosenboom (Electronic Music) Lowell Fulsom The Velvet Underground with Lou Reed Here is a partial list of celebrities who went there. Many of these people were there on opening night. The Monkees The Rolling Stones Allen Ginsburg Truman Capote Warren Beatty Douglas Fairbanks Jr. Liza Minelli Peter Allen Vincente Minelli (Film Director) Leonard Bernstein (Conductor/ Composer) Bette Davis Jon Voight Michaelangelo Antonioni Tuli Kuferberg "The Fugs" David Blue "Folk Singer" George Plimpton Tom Wolfe Steve Smith (Kennedy In Law) Mary McCarthy (Novelist) Joe Shaw (Fighter) etc. If you can suggest any sources for the above it would be greatly appreciated.

To bring this topic back up, I was wondering if anyone had done this with tape splices on the source film? Again, I'm using a JK animation motor on 50hz, so it's pretty darn slow (my shutter speed is appx 1/2) and I would say gentle. I have a Neutaper and fresh tape, I'm thinking that only taping one side will suffice. None of the splices will be on the actual material I need as I'm doing short traveling mattes with a bit of space between each.
