*on Michael Snow's "Sinoms" [mp3 for download]:"In the 50-minute Sinoms, Snow has multi-tracked some 20 voices, with as many different French and English accents, reading a complete list of the mayors of Quebec City, at some points making a simple juxtaposition of pronunciation and at others creating the effect of a choir." - U B U W E B
i was first familiar with Michael Snow and his work Wavelength, an experimental non-narrative film. but i learnt today that he was first and foremost a jazz musician, in addition to a photographer, a sculptor, an artist.
some of his photographic work, quite compelling and filmic:
Authorization (1969) - currently my laptop desktop
Venetian Blind (1970)
