By Brakhage

 

 

 Today Criterion made official (at least the type of official that comes with bells and whistles) what many had been patiently waiting a considerable amount of time for, the release date of the upcoming By Brakhage Vol. 2, which will be released simultaneously with a three-disc Blu-ray version containing all of the films included on the previous By Brakhage Vol. 1 on the 25th of May.  As mentioned elsewhere the films that will be included in this second volume are as follows:

The Wonder Ring (1955)
The Dead (1960)
Two: Creeley/McClure (1965)
23rd Psalm Branch (1966-1967/1979-1980)
Scenes From Under Childhood [Part One] (1967)
The Machine of Eden (1970)
The Process (1972) 
Star Garden (1974)
"He was born, he suffered, he died" (1974)

 Desert (1976)
The Domain of the Moment (1977)
Burial Path (1978)
Murder Psalm (1980)
Duplicity III (1980)
Unconscious London Strata (1981)
Arabic 12 (1981)
Visions in Meditatiion 1-4 (1989-1990)
Boulder Blues and Pearls And… (1993)
The Mammals of Victoria (1994)
From: First Hymn to the NIght – Novalis (1994)

Ellipsis Reel 5 (1998)
Persians 1-3 (1999)
Chinese Series (2003)


Extras that will be included are:

- Brakhage on Brakhage, a collection of video encounters with the filmmaker
- For Stan, a short film by Marilyn Brakhage
- Excerpts from a 1990 interview with Brakhage
- Footage from Brakhage’s salon at the University of Colorado
[[thanks Phil!]]
- Audio recordings of two lectures by Brakhage
- A booklet featuring a foreword and program notes by Marilyn Brakhage, as well as write-ups of the films and an essay by Brakhage expert Fred Camper


If am being entirely honest there are some mixed feelings that come along with this announcement.  It’s no doubt exciting news, it is clear that there was a concerted effort to include a broader range of films, allowing for the viewer to get some sense of the artistic progression that took place over his fifty plus year career.  Like volume one, it also offers the opportunity for greater in-depth personal study of each of the films, which will surely be enhanced by the increased clarity that comes along with Blu-ray (I suppose if there ever was a an occasion that warranted the purchase of a blu-ray player it would be this).  My main concern though is that once again these films will end up on YouTube or some like minded sight and be taken completely for granted, a prejudice that I have encountered repeatedly in my attempts to gain financial support for film screenings.  The availability of these films on a more convenient format SHOULD NOT take the place of FILM viewing opportunities (though I think this tendency will be tempered somewhat by the wise decision to include only single parts of larger series), the ephemeral mingling of light and emulsion with which these were obviously meant to be experienced.  Nevertheless the positives FAR outweigh any minor apprehensions one might have, after all, it was a fortuitous encounter with the first volume that got me started down this path I’m now walking, and the best that can be hoped for is that this new offering will have a similar impact on others.

The releases are available for pre-order through the Criterion website...

Stan Brakhage

Today is Stan Brakhage's birthday, and in LIGHT of that I thought I would post something that hopefully may be of some use.  As many know, Fred Camper's online page dedicated to Brakhage has been the greatest online resource concerning his work and associated materials for some time, but data, of course, has a tendency to be moved and links lose their functionality, so I have attempted to provide as many updated links as possibly could find.  I will acknowledge from the outset that even some of these links may no longer be functional, but it is my hope that such will be a minimal occurrence.

(the titles here correspond with the titles on Camper's page, all credit goes to Camper.  I had originally sent this to Camper some time ago, but did not hear back from him, so I hopefully he doesn't mind)
