Despite growing up in #buffalo I didn't know Tony Conrad super well - but we did work on a cable access TV show together called "Studio of the Streets" from the steps of city hall. I do love this wonderful book, "Introducing Tony Conrad: A Retrospective" edited by Cathleen Chaffee. #ExperimentalFilm

I wanted to celebrate the amazing #ExperimentalFilm writing of Scott Macdonald. I missed him by a few years when he was at Bard College, but I’ve always loved his essays and interviews. If you haven’t read him, look him up. Lots is great books and collections.

From my long-gestating feature The Star Rover. "I could never live out completely one full experience, one point of consciousness in time and space. My dreams, if dreams they may be called, were rhymeless and reasonless." #experimentalfilm #16mm

Another #ExperimentalFilm book recommendation(s). If you don’t know filmmaker, PeterTscherkassky, definitely check him out. In addition to his miraculous camera less filmmaking, he’s a huge authority on Austrian film history. Both the book about his work and his book “Film Unframed” are great!

Such a great book about the wonderful #ExperimentalFilm maker, Louise Bourque - edited by @stephenbroomer.bsky.social Louise’s work is so deeply personal yet universal and open. There’s also a great two part episode with Louise on the How to Enjoy Experimental Film podcast @h2eef.bsky.social
