[Frameworks] Experimental films using Astronomy & Satellite imagery - recommendations

[Robert Haller]

Dear Adam,

Thanks fpr the mention of my astronomical series and English/French
catalog, but it was not called "universe" but GALAXY: AVANT-GARDE
FILM-MAKERS LOOK ACROSS SPACE AND TIME. Sadly it played in the week of
9/ll which meant that there was almost no media coverage, and it was
difficult for audiences to get to Anthology because so many of the streets
in lower Manhattan were blocked by emergency vehicles.--Robert Haller
