The long films were made with an Auricon single system camera that records sync
sound directly onto the film (either optical or magnetic). This is what Warhol
used for the long take sound films and, if I'm not mistaken, also used for
films like Bike Boy, where there are loads of in-camera
I've also see the research that connects Satie with Warhol (my partner did
research on Sleep), but can't fill in as I'm traveling. Ironic that a nice
piece of curation is called impatient and pandering by people who can't read to
the end of a paragraph.

who are the brain police? - Zappa
Regarding SLEEP: the definitive source on Warhol's filmmaking, Callie
Angell, explains that SLEEP was indeed made with the Bolex using 100-
ft. rolls, on which Warhol made multiple shots (i.e. not simply
letting the full 100 feet run in one take as in the screen tests),
which were

ok, I see the problem about the projectors. Guess I am a bit out of
touch about that situation these days.
I guess I was thinking of that story about Stan Brakhage who
apparently did not at all like the film at 24fps, but when he saw it
over again at silent speed {presumably 16fps (?) } it
I stand corrected. I see now from the original advertisement that
the music performance is not simultaneous. I jumped to premature
conclusions because I know there is a lot of that going on these days.

How and why do stories like that get started anyway?

Fred,
Is that erroneous story actually in print somewhere? I think that may
be how and why I even knew of it, and is this discrediting of the
story also in print somewhere? Probably should be.

That particular story got started because Jonas Mekas told it. It
continues to be told because it's a good story, and it's lodged in the

The essay with the apocryphal story is in Notes After Reseeing the Films of
Andy Warhol by Jonas Mekas. First published in Andy Warhol by John Coplans in
1970. Reprinted in Andy Warhol Film Factory by Michael O'Pray in 1989. ~ Greg

Still not sure which book I saw the story, but I did find this, so
the discrediting was in print:
Pittsburg Post Gazette, Weekend Mag, Friday, February 6, 1998
Legend has it that Brakhage was watching Warhol’s “Sleep” (which
consists of a sleeping person) and hated it. Someone in the room
Not impossible that there was an offhand, perhaps even sarcastically
intended, remark that Mekas repeated or wrote down in his column and
which Brakhage just forgot making. Print has an odd power to take slight
anecdotes and give them a status beyond their initial intent. (My own
remembering,
Of course, Gehr's extension of A Trip Down Market Street into his EUREKA (by
step-printing each frame in original eight times (I believe)) is separate from
projection speed; Gehr's EUKEKA is properly run, for the record at 24fps.
Notably, this sound/speed silent speed results in other effects

That graphic I was sending to Josh Guilford notes an interesting feature of the
Pageant 250S, which relates to the whole discussion of how projection affects
the 'look' of a film, not just the duration.
Almost all projectors have a 3-blade shutter, so at 16fps they flicker 48
time-per-second,
Brilliant, especially the last bit, which raises the whole issue of whether
it's appropriate to show older work on new equipment. There was a great show at
the Hamburger Bahnhof in Berlin about four years ago called Beyond Cinema: The
Art of Projection, in which all the work was shown on
