So 18fps plus sound. Not so much an homage to Warhol as an homage to Youtube! LOL. At least with Youtube you can turn off the sound. No sets of ear plugs can do that as completely, and sometimes the bass from the speakers hits you in the gut anyway and creates a whole other unwanted

While this presentation of Sleep certainly differs from the original screenings of the film, it is also far from a Youtube hommage. Vexations played an important role in Warhol's conception of the film, and he took from Satie a working method making possible the editing of his short reels

Hi Fred, In Edie (Stein w/Plimpton, pp 234-235), George Plimpton recounts riding in a freight elevator with Warhol and mentioning the Carnegie Hall concert organized by Cage. I mentioned it to Andy only because I thought he might be vaguely interested--he was doing these eight-hour films of

Quoting Eric Theise ericthe...@gmail.com: My reading of the announcement is that the Vexations concert in Providence is 45 minutes long, and that it precedes the screening. It that's what it is, it sounds just fine to me. Fred Camper Chicago ___

John Cale performed in the Vexations concert, among others of course, but that was well before the VU, as I recall. However, Andy was in contact with La Monte Young about sound for his films when they were shown at Lincoln Center. I can't accept the idea that Andy got the idea for repetition, or

But if one is going to the trouble of presenting actual film, why not round up a couple of the correct projectors Easier said than done. If you're screening with dual projectors for reel changes, they ought to have the same brightness and CT lamps and the same focal length lenses, no? The

Damon has said as much but in response to Tony Conrad, on Warhol's use of 1200' reels, it is notable that SLEEP, unlike many well-known films by Andy Warhol (CHELSEA GIRLS, VINYL, EMPIRE) is specifically *not* composed of long uninterrupted static shots (which is often assumed by those who have
