Summary:
Examining the role of music and sound in experimental film, this book looks at the earliest work of pioneers such as Walther Ruttmann to latter-day experiments with new and digital media. Chapters examine issues relating to the avant-garde, abstraction, animation, found footage, queer film, visual music and VJing.
