My just-restored film Suicide Note (1976-84) will have its world
Here's an artist's statement for my films. I released eleven new ones and
and related prints on May 17. They are silent, and consist of Interactions,
Journals, Revisits, and Haikus.
Here's an index page for my own films.
There's a fine statement on Interactions by a young Brazilian, Pedro Accioly.
Just republished: a 1986 essay of mine, Some Notes on the Home Movie.
Also recently published: Education, Reduced, about a college ad stressing
the least "educaitional" aspects of education, and also my essay analyzing
films by Lang and Ray, in English and Portuguese. My book Seeking Brakhage
has been reviewed favorably. I especially care about Our Flattening Culture,
on our disastrous present and the restorative power of art, in the journal Logos.,
also available in Portuguese. There are videos about my art made by two
different friends, Dreams of Lost Wholeness by Brian Hischier, and
fred's unthreadings, by Yoel Meranda.
