Tony Conrad writes: "A trisection of the spectators' power over their own image language: word, trance, and command are installed as valences of the artist’s license, revealed as figures of parental authority."
Part of Gillette's series for Classical Video — tapes designed to act as non-literal, visual interpretations of classical music — In the Creeks is a lush, contemplative study of the natural microcosm of a creek in summer, transformed into an almost abstract, formalist microcosm. The dichotomy...
Initially created as an editing exercise for his students at UCSD, Jenkins’ Inconsequential Doggereal mixes poetic narrative fragments of self-shot footage with moments ripped from the unending flow of TV news, advertising, and entertainment. The images and sounds of mainstream television are...
Infinite Doors draws on the determined staying power and unremitting stimulation of prize-oriented game show culture. Utilizing clips from The Price is Right, Murata edits a kinetic series of prize unveils.

In a vast underground cave, Schneemann and seven nude women perform the ritualized actions of Interior Scroll — reading the text as each woman slowly extracts a scroll from her vagina. The scroll embodies the primacy of an extended visual line shaped as both concept and action. The extracted text...
Invasive Species documents a peculiar request by phone, set against a beautiful day at Green-Wood Cemetery. The exchange explores multiple tangents, from parakeets to numerology, while the onscreen events turn bizarrely synchronous.
Loosely structured as a letter home, a "writer" explicates the longings, nostalgia and regrets that exile, even voluntary exile, produces. B. Ruby Rich, writing in The Village Voice, states, "A subtle answer to travelogue mentalities... turns the tables on the tourists in their native land and...
