His website seems to be locked right now, and not sure how much info there is on there about it, but I've been curious about those who attended Nekes' workshops in other countries (besides those in Western Europe and the US.) I know he's been to Argentina and Turkey, but would love to hear more if

I saw *Film Before Film* twice at Anthology, and once Nekes was there. He was very kind. I love that film. It always serves to fill the medium with subtly and wonderment once again, when I am feeling more jaded about 'cinema'. Very glad for the work that Nekes did. May he conduct strange experiment
