Prelude: Dog Star Man (1962)

A creation myth realized in light, patterns, images superimposed, rapid cutting, and silence. A black screen, then streaks of light, then an explosion of color and squiggles and happenstance. Next, images of small circles emerge then of the Sun. Images of our Earth appear, woods, a part of a body, a nude woman perhaps giving birth. Imagery evokes movement across time. Part of the Dog Star Man series of experimental films.

I have to agree with Scott on this one. My mind was blown completely.

A jaw-dropping declaration of principles.

-Possibly the most visually amazing thing i have ever seen. Totally hypnotizing. Watching the whole hour and a half of the entire Dog Star Man was really difficult for me to get through, and nearly made me sick to my stomach by the end because its so visually dizzy. However, I could watch the prelude a ton and not get tired of it because its so beautiful. Also, i read a really interesting paper explaining the meaning behind it and its really crazy when you know what hes saying with it. Also, its really awesome if you sync it up with squarepusher (even though its supposed to be watched without any sound) its even crazier. I'm making a playlist where it syncs up perfectly, but if you start "Go Spastic" at the second time it changes from red it syncs up really well. message me if you are interested in the playlist sync up thing and when i'm done with it i can send it to you or something. but yeah, definitly the best from Brakhage in my opinoin

This film explores what Brakhage calls "closed eye vision". The first in his Dog Star Man series, ths is an experimental film that has no sound and a kaleidoscope of images with flashing colours, superimposed images and kinetic editing that can be best described as trippy. Not an easy film to watch even though it's 25 minutes long but with patience and an appreciation for unique experimental film, I loved the sheer energy of it.

Someday I am going to be a wealthy old spinster and I'll have a room with nothing but a chair shaped like a question mark and a flat screen that plays Dog Star Man at all times.
