Okay, well, this film started out as a punk Joke, made 10 minutes before class, in 8mm, shot Brakhage, camera jammed, used accident to shoot him down again, in order to move on, you know what I mean? But now... the whole thing is gettin' out of hand. I keep adding more chapters whenever I get pissed off, or incredulous at the whole Avant number, like when the Faust films came out, I knew it was time to go to work again... Part I. Starman, Part II. The Umpire Strikes Back, Part III. Dog Star Man Returns, Part IV: Who's on Faust? The whole series is dedicated to Jane and the kids...
