Stan Brakhage - Songs #1-#14 (1964-65)

Imagen Imagen Imagen

Many thanks to Cinemagrotesque for these wonderful jewels!!!

A collection of the first 14 Songs by Brakhage, originally shot in standard-8mm (also known as regular-8mm, not super-8), that range greatly in subject matter, mood, theme, and stylistic approach. Viewing them together illuminates the creative investigations of this singular artist. The "synopses" that follow are Brakhage's own (read Adams Sitney's Visionary Film p.210).

SONG I (1964) ; 4 min. Color.
A portrait of a beautiful woman.

SONG II & III (1964); 7 min. Color.
An envisionation of fire and a mind’s movement in remembering.

SONG IV (1964); 4 min. Color.
A round-about three girls playing with a ball…hand-painted over photo image.

SONG V (1964); 7 min. Color.
A child-birth song,…I think my best birth film yet.

SONG VI & VII (1964); 7 min. Color.
VI: A song of the painted veil-arrived at via moth-death
VII: A San Francisco song-portrait of the City of Brakhage dreams.

SONG VIII (1964); 4 min. Color.
A sea creatures song-a seeing of ocean as creature.

SONG IX & X (1965); 10 min. Color.
IX: a wedding song-of source and substance of marriage.
X: a sitting around song.

SONG XI (1965); 6 min. Color.
A black velvet film of fires, windows, insect life, and a lyre of rain scratches.

SONG XII (1965); 6 min. Black and white.
Verticals and shadows-reflections caught in glass traps.

SONG XIII (1965); 6 min. Color.
A travel song of scenes and horizontals.

SONG XIV (1965); 3 min. Color.
A “closed-eye” vision song composed of molds, paints, and crystals.

Thank you astrov.
I love 8mm films. I want to buy one and go to the supermarket near my house and shoot de old women discussing about weather or about their stupids and wilds grandsons. Slip in the grocery and film the onions and lettuces. Finally shoot the beggars, the homeless people playing football in a garden packed with peonias.
:mrgreen:
All with lovely 8mm grain.
Cuadruplico y voy a por más
