    That's cool. It's not for everyone. In fact it's only for Throbbing Gristle fans probably and I imagine only some of them will like it. It just seems obvious to me that most people who checked this film probably hadn't even heard of Throbbing Gristle let only actually like them yet they still sat through all 8 minutes of this. Hopefully at least 1 person became a fan :)

    I feel this short gets too much of a bad wrap. True, it is dizzying to say the least, altough no more than any Brakhage imo. It is not too long, and the faces and voices rapidly passing through greys and oranges create some sense of disturbing, Apocalypse Now-esque ambiance. 5 years 10 months ago

    It's a straight forward film which creates an atomsphere through the images that enchances the music.


    And it does so successfully.
