Re: [Videolib] Recap of Strike! 16mm screening last night
Your screening reminded me of people's (or worker's) theater actions, jury rigged setup and all. Music a la Fluxus? Nice idea. So, given the title, I suppose some could argue that compensation to somebody -- perhaps the artists -- was bypassed, but on the other hand perhaps corporate greed was subsumed by the community vibe. (But who would corporate be in this case?) A synth can certainly convey that allotment of faith. Hmm, I guess the final word is ... easier to apologize than ask ...? Now it's done, and the event has vanished into air ... move on to the next village and this time rig it up in the public square!

Please let Sergei Eisenstein or Proletkult know that their rubles are in the mail. Anyhoo, there was no info as to the distributor or copyright info in the leaders / tails or in the titles / credits.
