“There has never been a great film unless it was created in the spirit of the experimental filmmaker.”
- Len Lye
Len Lye was a major figure in experimental filmmaking as well as a leading kinetic sculptor and an innovative theorist, painter and writer. He pioneered ‘direct film', film made without a camera, by painting and scratching images directly onto celluloid, by reworking found footage, by casting shadows of objects onto unexposed film, and by experimenting with a number of early color techniques.
“All of a sudden it hit me - If there was such a thing as composing music, there could be such a thing as composing motion. After all, there are melodic figures, why can’t there be figures of motion?”
- Len Lye

Do you intend to add the films that are absent from the VOD purchase, but are present in this trailer? Right now the VOD purchase is missing several key films.

[@REVOIRVIDEO]

Hello,
The films that are not yet on the VOD offering will be available at a later date. We are still working on getting the best HD sources for these films. For the time being, these films are still available on DVD.
Best Regards,
Jim
