Awhile back, Chuck Kleinhans posted a link to an essay by Erika
Balsom, about the place of experimental cinema within the museum/art
world context, which I did find interesting and wanted to make some
response to. Sorry for the length. I assume all uninterested can
just delete now!
Well it certainly would have been interesting to hear George Kuchar's take on
WAVELENGTH. In my experience he always had these funny contrarian takes on
avant-garde films. I never sat down and had discussions with him about this
but he would often throw out these one-liners that were hilarious.
When I asked him about Wavelength he claimed he didn’t remember even writing
such a list. I don’t know which issue of Film Comment it was in, and a search
of their back issues yields no results. Maybe Mike knows. I was often struck by
the ambiguity of George’s comments, not sure if he was
We are please to announce that the Optical Printing Workshop with

I thought Marilyn Brakhage's response to the Erika Balsom essay was
outstanding, and I hope it will be reprinted in Moving Image Arts Journal so it
circulates more directly where historians and scholars might find it in the
future.
Greybeards like me on the Frameworks listserv can easily add
Thanks for the feedback. It would be interesting to hear more on the
subject from people around at the time -- as well as the latest
experiences other people are having.

all I know is how impressed I was with the Bruce Conner
retrospective in Los Angeles at MOCA a many few years ago. All of
his modes of working were well presented.
Bruce Conner!

Forgive me for reposting something from 3 months ago, but I think it is
important to think about scanning resolution vs. output resolution. Small
formats actually benefit more than formats like 35mm from high resolution
scanning, because they have a much higher amount of grain in a frame, and
Millennium, where I believe you're doing a gig, has the only public optical

I didn't see that exhibition, unfortunately. But Bruce Conner also
had a gallery/art world history and connections for his work in other
media, aside from film. It's the people who are only filmmakers who
