200 Feet For March 31st (1968) 16mm, black and white, silent, 10 min

Genre: Experimental

Keywords: Philosophical

"The aspect of the word,/ as somebody said,/ sound/ the word is sound much more than anything else/ and this , you see how true this is/ of the visual sound also, the optical impact of the text, seen at different speeds, the different color of the paper, the different type in conjunction with what comes to mind, at (as it is) random/ AGAINST THAT POSSIBLE SPRINGTIME/ the full openness/ for the sake of a complete experience seeing THE CANTOS, in bold face; then CUMMINGS, the UPANISHAD; and the impressionistic view that brings associations springing from a simple word remembered by chance, or a line, or a poet's name you discover what is the word/& where it is living/ the context, going far beyond its or the neighboring words' meaning when what went unnoticed before shows its bright relevance, here. Let us not talk about the structure of the film here (the six Upanishads following each other in alternation with what is both different and related-- the word of others). Let us not talk of how and to whom homage was paid, Let us talk of this:/ THE DISCOVERY OF THE WORD/ it is surely something to S E E..." --Andeas Weiland

V. (For Versus) (1968) 16mm, black and white, sound, 12 min

Genre: Experimental

Keywords: Philosophical

Should be as clearly as is possible a filmic expression of a series of impossibilities proceeding from the fundamentally unknown relationship between our action and the world pre-existing to it. The tale moves, on varying levels, around the contemplation of this ontological crisis, from tension to indifference and further, death, the medium (film) withering, it is in darkness that the animal moves... the setting: the Mount of Olives.

Monster Movie (1973) 16mm, black and white, sound, 4 min

Genre: Experimental

Keywords: Comedy

A paranoid fantasy -- with considered application of standard cliché -- presented as confirmed reality, totally devoid of moral import. The intent is to provoke humor. Man in smoking jacket walks down a shadowed corridor, there's a beast in the closet. The assault is hideously murderous.

Castro Street (1966) 16mm, color & b/w, sound, 10 min

Genre: Documentary

Keywords: Landscape & Architecture

Inspired by a lesson from Eric Satie; a film in the form of a street -- Castro Street running by the Standard Oil Refinery in Richmond, California... switch engines in one side and refinery tanks, stacks and buildings on the other -- the street and film, ending at a red lumber company. All visual and sound elements from the street, progressing from the beginning to the end of the street, one side is black and white (secondary), and one side is color -- like male and female elements. The emergence of a long seitch-engine shot (black and white solo) is to the filmmaker the essential of consciousness.
