Description de l'ouvrage :
Elder examines how artists such as Brakhage, Artaud, Schneemann, Cohen and others have tried to recognize and to convey primordial forms of experiences. He argues that the attempt to convey these primordial modes of awareness demands a different conception of artistic meaning from any of those that currently dominate contemporary critical discussion. By reworking theories and speech in highly original ways, Elder formulates this new conception. His remarks on the gaps in contemporary critical practices will likely become the focus of much debate.

Revue de Presse :
Elder is undoubtedly one of the most stimulating thinkers I have ever encountered'' (translated from the Italian)
- Antonio Bisaccia, author of Effetto Snow andart reviewer for Manifesto, Il Manifesto andArtleader

... each of the book's principal parts is exemplary of the kind of criticism film studies needs and should have a great deal more of.
- Bart Testa, University of Toronto Quarterly

The scope of this volume is truly astonishing.
- M. Wayne Cunningham, Canadian Book Review Annual
