Wallace Berman, Stan Brakhage, & Ubu Web

To see more about Aleph and Wallace Berman: http://www.ubu.com/film/berman_aleph.html

And an interesting look at Stan Brakhage in 'Legendary Epics Yarns and Fables: Stan Brakhage' by Stephen E. Gebhardt and Robert Fries..

"In the early 1970s Stan Brakhage was recorded in a living room. Brakhage makes brief comments about how objects inspire him and why music is an aesthetic error in film, but he spends most of his time talking about how hard it is to speak extemporaneously to the camera."
