Book Description:

Undulating water patterns; computer-generated, pulsating, multihued light tapestries-the visual images that often constitute experimental motion pictures are unlike anything found in either fictive narratives or documentary works. Direct Theory provides a theoretical survey of this body of international films, videos, and digital productions and offers a strong case for the understanding of experimental motion pictures as a separate, major motion picture genre.
