Erth John Latham UK 1971
"A journey from outer space to the centre of the world, in which consciousness 
itself is revealed as a form sedimented history. With distant views of the 
approaching Earth punctuated by black and silence, light years are compressed 
into a cosmic imaginary.” Lux

Moon 69 Scott Bartlett 1969
"Moon 1969 is a beautiful, eerie, haunting film, all the more wonderful for the 
fact we do not once see the moon: only the manifestation of its powers here on 
earth, the ebb and flow of the waters.. fiery rainbows into a cloudy sky... men 
and rockets transformed into shattering crystals... creating a picture if the 
cosmos in continual transformation."-- Gene Youngblood
