Experimental Animation: An Illustrated AnthologyA collage composed from the energies, enthusiasms and ideas of a hearty band of film mavericks whose exploits are for the first time treated in book form. A number of motifs emerge from Russett's and Starr's collection, including the vibrant interface between film and the other arts (painting and music), the growing importance of evolving technologies and, most important, film's exciting potential as a mode of personal expression. |
