A sight/sound combine of exotic imagery shot semi-randomly in superimposition off a TV and then cut to make a fast moving but extremely ambiguous ‘story.’ Gorilla moves through modern man’s myth mind like a runaway train bursting at the seams. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in 2011.

A highly personal work of dubious nature. An attempt is made to balance and equate the realms of human beings, plants, the sky and light. The birth, blossoming and eventual decay of plants is seen as a parallel, indeed, a paradigm of our own dubious existence as creatures and creations of libido. Vortices of unseen and uncharted "vibrations", we expand and retract according to our season. The processes of nature are inevitable but fulfilling if fully engaged in.

A trance film originally released in 1966 as THE STAR CURTAIN, about the settling and relaxation of the senses after a climax. "Sentences" of cosmic imagery were added in 1969 to form the vision glimpsed in the trance. Dialectic opposition of picture and sound. TANTRA played at the San Francisco Film Festival of 1970.
