Title: 
Stan Brakhage on Vsevolod Pudovkin and other film makers
Description: 
Stan Brakhage analyzes Vsevolod Pudovkin's film 'Mechanics of the Brain' and discusses the ethics of science. He compares Pudovkin to Sergei Eisenstein. Brakhage discusses the concept of liberty. He tells the story of the First Transcontinental Railroad, which he uses as a metaphor about artists and the world. Brakhage gives his opinion of Pablo Casals and describes how a sequence by Richard Leacock changed his opinion of Casals. He discusses Kenneth Anger's involvement in black magic and how Anger managed to keep his religion from "posing a danger" to his art. Brakhage recommends Robert Duncan's work and mentions numen.
