Notes: | Title from container. "From early collage animation created in the spirit of the surreal and dadaist work of Max Ernst, but with a wild, rough informality more akin to the expressionism of the Beat Generation ..., to utopian experiments in expanded cinema, building a dome theatre with dozens of projectors or creating computer animated films and holographic experiments with Bell labs, Vanderbeek was a visionary well before his time. In the 1970s he designed global fax murals, steam projections and interactive television programs."--Container.

Bonus: Vanderbeekiana (1968, 28 min.), a portrait of Stan Vanderbeek at home and in his MovieDrome, directed by Nick Havinga and written by Stephan Chodorov. DVD, PAL, all regions; Dolby digital 2.0.
