Lillian Schwartz

Googolplex (1972):

One of Lillian Schwartz’s great experimental films, many of them made while she was artist in residence at Bell Labs in the early 1970s.

Look: http://lillian.com! A lot of information there. This is wonderful stuff which has been recently uploaded to Lillian Schwartz’s YouTube channel.

Pixillation (1970):

Masstransiscope

Couple of super clips on this Youtube vid of Bill Brand’s Masstransiscope, plus footage from the artist’s studio, with a wonderful prototype ‘zoetrope machine’. I also find the quality of this c1980 video footage quite beautiful. The piece was restored in 2008.
