Stan Brakhage, The Dead (1960)

featuring Kenneth Anger

“Imagine an eye unruled by man-made laws of perspective, an eye unprejudiced by compositional logic, an eye which does not respond to the name of everything but which must know each object encountered in life through an adventure of perception.”

—Brakhage, ”Metaphor on Vision,” first published in the journal Film Culture in 1963
